Riding a tidal wave of electrifying momentum, the Australian-born, Los Angeles-based artist Wax Motif has carved out a name for himself by masterfully blending R&B, disco, and U.K. bass into a sound that captivates both club enthusiasts and mainstream listeners. Released on his Divided Sols label, Wax’s latest explosive anthem, “On Ya Neck,” sees him teaming up with the dynamic Chicano DJ/producer Juos and the fierce Chicago rap queen Sasha Go Hard. This bold collaboration is a high-energy celebration that further cements Wax Motif’s unique ability to unite the worlds of dance music and hip-hop culture through his masterful sound design and technical production.
Wax Motif had this to say about reuniting with Juos for their second collab together:
“After the response to our first collab, it felt natural to get back in the studio together. This track brings together our two styles and has been a standout in my sets for months. Every time I play it, the crowd reaction is instant. Bringing Sasha Go Hard into the mix pushed the energy even further — she came through with an incredible verse and a catchy chorus that really elevated the song and gave it a whole new dimension. The result is a record that perfectly captures the sound and excitement we wanted to create.”
“On Ya Neck” is a relentless house banger designed to ignite dance floors and festival stages. With its driving percussion, infectious grooves, gritty basslines, and commanding vocals, this track captures the raw intensity of another Wax Motif classic. Gritty yet electrifying, this single embodies the brand that he has made for himself.
Commenting on the collab, Juos shared, “I had a lot of fun producing ‘On Ya Neck’ with Wax. It was one of those tracks that came together pretty quickly, and it’s been dope seeing the reaction it gets every time I play it out live.”
