As a rap artist, storyteller and creative writer, JAX embodies the spirit and aesthetic ‘true folk art.’ With his sublime jargon, bodacious hooks and evocative lyrical style that paints the perfect story, JAX expresses an identity deeply rooted in the culture of traditional and contemporary hip-hop. JAX’s gratifying flow, fresh cadence and cognitive lyrical style culminate into a sub-genre and brand known as TRAP x WOKE. JAX, born Adam Jackson was born and raised in Norfolk Virginia, the home of notable musicians like Missy Elliott, Clipse and Pharrell Williams. Though Virginia is known to produce great icons, it has also been plagued by a troubling history of racism and slavery, much of which informs JAX’s narrative.
