DuxOh

Born and raised in the East Harlem section of New York City, Duxoh draws on his life experience to paint pictures with words. As a youth he found an escape through writing, anything from poetry to short stories. Once a classmate put him on to an array of hip hop albums from the likes of Kool G Rap and K-Solo, Dux was hooked.

He started to record music videos to watch after school. He would freestyle in the lunchroom until eventually as a high school senior, his childhood friend Chase Manson encouraged him to write rhymes. While he initially pursued a career in rap with his group The Staff, which included Braz and Foner(R.I.P), he abandonded the idea to instead concentrate on making a living by any means available. Now years later, he’s picked up the pen again. Enter his world, where he takes the listener on a relatable journey of day to day survival in the life of a black man in America.
