DD Foxx was born in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia and based out of Dubai. She grew up imitating TV commercials and jingles, which sparked her passion for singing and song writing. DD was constantly surrounded by a variety of musical influences which helped shape her sound. She describes her unique sound as “a mixture of pop, dance, R&B, rap and funk merged with a Middle Eastern flavour.”
Her first debut album Had to Be Me earned her a number 3 spot in the Urban & Pop genre of the ‘Top 20 Best Selling Albums’ by UAE artists.
The lead single Raise the Roof received positive reviews and the music video was choreographed by Luther Brown. Brown has previously worked with world famous musicians like Janet Jackson, Jennifer Lopez, Gwen Stefani, Big Bang and Diddy.
DD was one of four Dubai artists chosen to showcase for Quincy Jones, Will.i.am and Timbaland as part of Dubai Music Week. She has also worked with an array of international brands such as Samsung, MasterCard, Emirates Airlines, Max Factor and Disney to name a few.
Her latest achievement is the remix of her single Need Your Love Tonight by DJ Kue and Eric Kupper.This single went viral and helped her reach number 18 on the U.S. Billboard Dance Club Songs chart. This is historic. She is the first female artist based out of the UAE to earn a spot on the U.S. Billboard charts. She later released her single “Touch of Love” which earned great reviews, followed by singles like “Harmony” and “Higher”
DD aims to pave the way for women to follow in her footsteps and is very keen about introducing her unique sound to a global audience.
