Vixin Drops New Single ‘DANK’ Featuring Gemini Santino

South African rising star Vixin is making waves once again with his latest single, ‘DANK’, a collaboration with fellow local talent Gemini Santino. Since emerging in the underground hip hop scene in 2018, Vixin has steadily carved out a reputation for himself, known not only for his solo work but also for his international projects. He regularly collaborates with artists and producers across the globe and continues to expand his influence far beyond South Africa’s borders.

While Vixin predominantly performs in English, he has also highlighted his native Satswana language through his music, most notably as a featured artist on noori beats’ acclaimed WORLDWIDE EP. His dedication to his craft is evident, with a relentless commitment to writing new material and connecting with fans. As his notoriety grows exponentially, Vixin is proving himself to be a significant figure in both the domestic and international rap scenes.

‘DANK’ pays homage to Vixin and Gemini Santino’s small town, specifically a local cannabis dispensary of the same name. The track’s lyrics reflect the artists’ unwavering focus and determination to maintain hard work throughout their musical journeys. Every verse embodies their commitment to their craft, making the song as motivational as it is infectious.

The production, handled by Syrian-American producer noori beats, brings a chillingly powerful atmosphere to the track. The American trap-inspired beat is anchored by hard-hitting 808s, heavy bass and haunting countermelodies that perfectly complement the sharp, harmonious energy of Vixin and Gemini Santino. Their self-assurance, confidence and pride in their work resonate throughout, creating a haunting yet exhilarating listening experience.

‘DANK’ is more than just a track. It is a statement. It is a testament to the artistry, dedication and fearless ambition of Vixin and his collaborators and an essential listen for anyone keeping an ear on the rising stars of the international hip hop scene.
