Happy Musical Tuesday Hiveans π. Today being Tuesday means it's another day to share great music.
Well yesterday, I checked #mydeezeryear story. It was sort of incorrect cause it only shows the songs streamed not downloaded. and not all the songs you listen to.
One thing that really shocked me was when I checked my artist list. It was way shuffled and stuff, with some artist's that I know I don't listen to their songs as much as I do now.
One of those artist's is Dax;
Screenshot from my phone
As can be seen from the screenshot above, it showed Dax as my 3rd favorite artist, listened for 11 hours.
First of all there is no way that my 3rd favorite artist would be ranked on 11 hours cause I know the amount of time I listen to music in a day, talk less a year.
This would have been my streaming period in the early part of the year(January, February...).
It did make me wonder though, because Dax is an artist who I know I was a major fan of in the past but I don't listen to his songs as much, now only whenever it's in my shuffle playlist that I hear Dax.
This made me wonder on what my love for him was that I listened to him online for 11 hours.
Hence I went to my Deezer and just played Dax till the time of writing this post and wowπ΅β¨, I think the love has been renewed.
So now in this post I'll bring 1 of my favorite Dax songs from his singles, EP's and Album.

Singles
Dax has a great amount of singles, all which I think he personally killed, but I have to choose just the one that resonated for me which is...
Dear Momπ€°π€±
This is a track Dax wrote for mother's day, celebrating his mother and all the mother's in the world for the great sacrifices which they made for their kids. Using his own moms struggles, he recounts some of the sacrifices she made, he then tells her how much she is loved and how he promises not to let her down..
Indeed it was a really moving trackπ€§ so to all mother's in the world and on #Hive , yeah.. we see you π
EPs
Dax has only two EP's, but I think I had more songs that resonated with me in the I'll say It For You ep. This EP was mostly about love but had two distinguished tracks about religion mixed inThese would be in another musical post
Like i said, this EP was mostly about his failed love and there's one that really moved me....
Love Hurts ππ€
This is for me the most painful and moving heartbreak song there is. Using his amazing lyricism, Dax painted us a picture of first love gone wrong.
How he was devastated when the girl left then he went to recount what the girl did, indeed, she didn't try.ππ€
From the intro to the outro, this song was gold and the distinguished lead guitar tune is just ππ΅β₯οΈ
So y'all should listen to this track and see why y'all should fear women π
Albums
Dax has only one album which is Pain, Paints, Painting and I've featured a song from that album in my Stories Rap 2
It is a really colorful album with lots of great songs, thus I had a hard time choosing what to share, but after multiple listens, I decided to share...
Suffocatingπ΅π
In this track Dax talks about how lonely the life of a musician could get. How has he's gotten recognition, he also gained fans and haters.
How he fights hard to get rid of depression, yet he has no one to listen to.
Indeed it's a sad yet real truth, for he mentioned how he has thousands of contacts yet no one to talk to.
It's clear that a lot of people would want to get close to someone like Dax for the money and other stuff.
Actually the track is pretty hard to explain so I'll let y'all just listen ππ
Bonus Trackπ
This track is what was fighting with Suffocating to make the list in Dax album's.
Eternityβ
So that's all for my #threetunestuesday entry, sorry it was a bit lengthy π.
I just realized how interesting this Dax musical character is. Also did I just see that he's a Nigerian, who is in Canada and is making waves. For real I'm so proud of my country's musical talents. At least it's something to be proud about π
.
Would love to hear your feedback on the tunes in the comments π
As always my honorable mentioning of the characters that make this challenge a success. In the persons of our challenge host @ablaze, our Irish joker @blanchy who has another apparently more handsome name that I choose not to remember ππ, @tengolodo and other's.
I wish y'all a great week ahead.
