Dax’s EP, "What is life?", smacks you right in the soul with its raw depiction of mental battles, personal agony, and the relentless hunt for happiness. Through stark storytelling and gut-wrenching lyrics, Dax sketches an electric graffiti of his life’s turmoil.
The opening track, "The Abyss," plunges us into a dark, haunting narrative rooted in Dax’s brutal childhood memories of battling psychosis, softened only by the refuge he found in basketball. The minimalist beat lets his stark words eclipse everything else, painting a vivid, razor-sharp image of his struggles.
"Dear Alcohol" emerges as a standout, a confessional crescendo that confronts not just personal pain but the demon of alcoholism clawing at Dax's psyche. It’s the emotional heartbeat of the EP, resonating powerfully with anyone familiar with the shadows of addiction.
Tracks like "2023" elevate the EP with Dax’s nimble flows dissecting modern ailments and the weight they impose, while "Life," the final track, flips the script with a defiant anthem of resilience and survival. The whole experience of "What is life?" thrums with candid introspection and raw vulnerability, echoing the eternal struggle between despair and resilience. -
