Famous Dex: The Youth God


Kansas City, MO
By Terrance Hill

Famous Dex is the embodiment of todays youth. With his face tattoo's, red dread locs and very high tolerance for drugs, Dex is the physical manifestation of the youth in 2016.

Hailing from Chicago, IL, it's expected of him to rap about his 30 (gun), the opps (enemy/cops) or catching bodies (murder), however in a interview with SayCheeseTV, Dex says "I'm a role model now... That's why I don't really rap about guns."

Although his earlier music says something different and is very similiar in sound and content as Lil Durk and Chief Keef, Dex's latest music is much more dance oriented and made for the party; with songs like"Drip from my walk" and "Where" with Go Yayo.

Dex has caught himself inbetween recent controversy with being left off the XXL Freshmen list and also being accused in the Sauce Walka onslaught of rappers stealing "sauce" from Houston.

While he admits to being heavily influenced by Walka, Dex isnt so easy going about being left off the Freshmen list. "Man I got real fans... (Me and Trill Sammy)... buy you know what, Imma go Rolling Stone. I aint trippin." Dex told SayCheese.

The Rolling Stone cover may not be so far-fetched, as Dex has said he is the next James Brown.

Saying he is James Brown is a bold statement but after seeing the kid im action, James Brown may be his only comparison.

Due to his contagious energy, Dex has garnered millions of fans, followers and views. The high violence in his hometown, makes his celebrity even more significant. Which is something that the Youth God knows and understands.  "If I could do something it, I will... I am a role model now."
