OFFICIAL TOUR DJ - TEAM TRACE MARX July 2012 – Present (2 years 3 months) Miami/Fort Lauderdale ABOUT TRACE MARX Utilizing a distinct mix of ethnicities with his dynamic flow and captivating lyrics, Trace Marx demands the audience's attention from the first note to the last echo of each and every song stamped with his signature vocals. Marx has been encouraged by his peers and the community at large, with a sizable following and an increase in attendance from show to show. Moving to the cultural melting pot of South Florida from the United Kingdom at a young age with a Jamaican upbringing has enabled Trace to melodically reach out to people from all walks of life. His love for poetry evolved over his teenage years until one day realizing the potential for magic when combined with an instrumental. By studying but not mimicking his predecessors, he has developed a new, unique and definitely necessary flavor of his own to add not just to the genre of hip-hop, but to music worldwide. Motivated by experiences throughout his youth, Trace Marx has established goals of not just exceeding what is expected of an artist, but also to develop into a key component in the business economy.

Although its gender and race relations have historically been problematic, they have recently transformed in particular ways. This study examines the forty-one best-selling rap videos of 2007– 2008. Through a qualitative content analysis of videos and lyrics several themes emerged. Hip-hop’s focus on conspicuous consumption, buttressed by the success of entrepreneurial rap moguls, has merged with strip club culture to create a new gender relation based on sexual transaction.
