(AboveAverageHipHop.com Review by Riley)
Originally from Brooklyn, and currently residing in Staten Island, rapper Jay Ax is a magnetic emcee that exudes confidence – and has the skills to back it up. Over the years, Jay Ax has developed a deep music catalog comprised of 5 mixtapes, which have sold over 12,000 copies. Not that many artists these days can claim that. He’s also shared stages with industry royalty like T-Pain, Wyclef Jean, Khia, Keith Murray, Jae Millz and others. His latest offering is a twenty song banger of a project entitled Don’t Ax Don’t Tell. It’s a solid offering that has three distinct vibes – trap/street, radio, and soulful. Over the course of the project, which may seem a bit daunting at first based on the length, Jay rides and excels the current trends and sounds that dominate the New York scene, but also gives brief glimpses into his character and personality. Please keep in mind, I’m approaching this project as a first-time listener.
