Canada-hailing rapper Dax unspools a journey of pain, growth, and healing on enticing production “Man I Used to Be.” Led by smooth beats, acoustic, stripped-down sonics and emotive delivery, the track strikes all the right chords on every note.

Exploring addiction, old wounds, toxic patterns, and the journey of finding yourself again, the track is vulnerable and honest as it grounds itself in the realities beyond the plushy and polish of a glitzy life. Produced by Jimmy Robbins, the silky number comes to life with Dax’s powerful voice cushioned by soulful guitars, drawing us in with its hypnotic but grounding style. 

Coming at the perfect time with Dax recently hitting six months sober, there is an intense intimacy and clarity to the track as he showcases where he’s at mentally, emotionally, spiritually.

The kind track that gives you hope of starting afresh, " Man I Used to Be” celebrates imperfections, lessons learned and progress as it places Dax’s own struggles as a source of inspiration. 

Honest and heavy yet laden with uplifting hope, Dax reminds us you can go through hell and come out better on the other side with this bold anthem.
