He famously says, “You write your best songs when you’re either heartbroken or in love.” This is a statement that has echoed through the office of the Brown Rappers Network and resonated with so many budding songwriters.
“When I started making music in 2017, mumble rap was huge and there was a soundcloud rapper movement. I enjoyed listening to this music, but it never really translated into the music I wanted to make. Nevertheless, I do have a lot of music about partying but I’ve definitely transitioned more into making music about how I feel, my emotions in particular situations.
Growing up in Bangkok, I was able to experience a lot of things most people never will. I’m grateful for the people I met there, and the many cultures I was exposed to. I met some of my best friends there who pushed me to post my music on soundcloud, even though it wasn’t good yet 😂. My music is inspired by those experiences and those people, as well as the music I listen to. So far I’ve released three albums and currently working on two others. “Mixtape 2020” will release before the end of the year and “Pres before Koi” @theclubatkoi will be out sometime early next year. I really appreciate the opportunity Brown Rappers Network (BRN) has given me to talk a little about myself and hopefully its followers give me a shot.” – Dalton Jaxon
Currently living in Colorado, Boulder, Dalton has taken up academic courses in Data Science, in order to further his professional knowledge. Bangkok will always be home for him, however, for now, the United States of America is where he shall continue his journey. Dalton’s younger brother recently graduated from high school and has also released multiple songs with multiple music videos in collaboration with Vin Stratton, who was also the creative director, photographer/videographer, and editor for Dalton Jaxon’s music video, “Call Me”.
I really hope we can manage to get Dalton and his brother on the show together to talk more about their stories and upcoming projects. Pink Cloud is the artist name of Dalton’s younger brother. Be sure to check out his content before he pulls up to the BRN Show!
