Dax: The Anger Management Tour

Dax brings The Anger Management Tour to History in Toronto on November 26, 2026. Born in St. John’s to Nigerian parents and raised in Ottawa, he pivoted from US college basketball to rap in 2016, turning spoken-word grit into tightly written verses. His first online drops led to the 2018 mixtape 2Pac Reincarnation Volume 2: As Told By Dax and the EP It’s Different Now. Since then, his catalog has shifted from bar-for-bar exercises to more introspective cuts: I’ll Say It for You (2020), Pain Paints Paintings (2021), What Is Life? (2023) and From a Man’s Perspective (2024). The sound ranges across hip-hop, contemporary R&B and hardcore rap, with detours into country rap and Christian hip-hop, anchored by sung hooks that open up heavy themes.

On stage, Dax keeps the spotlight on voice, diction and message. The set swings between confessional storytelling and head-down double-time, with beat switches, a cappella drops and crowd-led choruses. The tour nods to collaborations that shaped his path—Hopsin, Tech N9ne, Trippie Redd, Nasty C, Elle King, Darius Rucker—showing how easily he crosses rap and country textures. The Anger Management Tour threads earlier viral singles with recent material around anger, faith and resilience for a focused, high-impact show at History.
