DIXSON and Pause Unite to Champion Mental Health and Wellness in the Music Industry

DIXSON’s Birthday Celebration at Gravitas Powered by LOOP and MemeHouse LA Featured Ciara’s TEN TO ONE Rum, Sets the Stage for a September Wellness Experience

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, August 27, 2025 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Grammy-winning and Oscar-nominated Roc Nation artist DIXSON has partnered with premier wellness brand Pause to launch a groundbreaking event series dedicated to centering mental health and recovery within the music industry. The inaugural installment—a star-studded, invitation-only birthday celebration at Beverly Hills’ prestigious Gravitas club, was produced by LOOP, presented in partnership with MemeHouse LA, and featured bespoke cocktails from Grammy-winning singer, songwriter, and philanthropist Ciara’s award-winning TEN TO ONE Rum.

Upon entering the ultra-luxurious space, cultural innovators were met with an atmosphere of lively, authentic energy. With a soundtrack curated by acclaimed DJ Kazadi, the evening fused dance and celebration with meaningful conversations, cultivating a space to connect, unwind, and reflect on wellness within creative worlds too often shaped by relentless demands and burnout.

The star-studded night also spotlighted his latest creative triumphs, including co-writing and vocal-producing Kehlani’s Folded alongside Kehlani and Kamal Wilson, as well as the release of Mariah Carey’s Sugar Sweet, featuring Kehlani and Shenseea. The evening marked a major moment as DIXSON announced that new music will arrive this October, igniting anticipation across the industry. While honoring artistry and achievement, the deeper purpose was rooted in community and care. Pause gifted guests $25,000 worth of wellness experiences, marking the launch of an intentional movement to balance creative excellence with holistic well-being. Select members of DIXSON’s VIP circle also received exclusive, customized gift sets from Ciara’s TEN TO ONE Rum.

The guest list featured industry heavyweights, including his powerhouse manager Dina Sahim of SALXCO; Warner Chappell A&R Director Ethan Baer; Hollywood Records recording artist India Shawn; and four-time Grammy Award winner Larrance Dopson of 1500 or Nothin’. Having recently signed with SALXCO—a management roster that includes The Weeknd, Doja Cat, Bebe Rexha, French Montana, and Ty Dolla $ign—DIXSON’s growing influence in shaping contemporary music is undeniable, along with his commitment to using his platform to champion wellness for the creative community.

“I’ve seen community built around the art we create, but rarely around the lives of those creating it,” said DIXSON. “This industry stretches us in ways that can be overwhelming, and prioritizing mental health ensures the stretch doesn’t break us. Creatives deserve space to breathe, and much like music, it’s always better when we do it together. I’m grateful to collaborate with Pause on championing wellness and to Ten To One for honoring the spirit of gathering.”

The series will continue in late September with an intimate wellness retreat hosted by Pause, where DIXSON and invited tastemakers will step away from the pressures of constant output to rest, recover, and reconnect.

“From our perspective, DIXSON is a powerful thought leader and creative force in the industry,” shared an executive from Pause. “We believe the most innovative minds require intentional wellness and recovery, which is why we extended this offering to him and his distinguished network during his birthday celebration, and will continue with a private wellness event this fall.”

With this partnership, DIXSON and Pause are creating a blueprint for how the music industry can celebrate artistry while also protecting the minds and bodies behind it.
