DIXSON releases a true R&B instant classic with “FRIENDS.” This is a follow-up to his critically acclaimed EP release 004DAISY which spawned hits “Sweeter,” “Barely,” and “Cherry Sorbet.” Among some of the EP’s remarkable music are stand-out tracks “Heat” featuring Tinashe, the aforementioned “Cherry Sorbet,” and “Day-Off.”
004DAISY was released September 16, 2022, on the heels of lead single “Cherry Sorbet” which featured R&B artist Sevyn Streeter and debuted on Aug. 23.
DIXSON has had several milestone moments recently that has signaled to the world that he’s stepped into the space of the next legendary R&B title contender.He added the title Oscar-nominee to his resumé for his contribution to “Be Alive,” which he co-wrote with Beyoncé for the film King Richard, a song she performed in unforgettable fashion at the Academy Awards. He also contributed as a writer on Beyoncé’s latest record-shattering album, RENAISSANCE, with credits on “Virgo’s Groove,” and “Pure/Honey.” This work would earn new fans globally as the RENAISSANCE movement toured the world. It would earn him two Grammy-nominations at the 2023 Grammy Awards.

The Los Angeles Times acknowledged, “The accolades are starting to catch up, but Dixson has been making music his whole life.”

He’s quietly had a huge impact in entertainment making his mark across multiple genres. He’s a songwriter, producer, multidisciplinary creative and artist.
“FRIENDS” is just the beginning of the next chapter.
