Willbandzz x chxnk is a SoundCloud upload with 57,572 plays. It is not a Daj' record. It sits in his SoundCloud favourites, which is the only reason it appears on this page, and the only claim being made about it.
What makes it worth a look is the shape of the title rather than the number attached to it. Two handles joined by an x, with no song name at all.
Two Names, No Title
An upload titled with nothing but two artist handles and a connector is a specific kind of artifact. The record is being identified by who made it rather than by what it is called.
That convention is common in the collaborative underground, where a track between two artists often goes up before anyone settles on a name for it, or where the pairing itself is the selling point and a title would only get in the way. The x does the work: it says these two, together, and it implies parity rather than a host-and-guest arrangement.
For a listener browsing a favourites list, that formatting is informative in a way a song title would not be. It tells you the collaboration is the event.
Reading a Favourites List for Pairings
Most attempts to read an artist's listening habits focus on which individual artists appear. That is the obvious approach and it is also the least useful one, because a single name tells you almost nothing about why it was saved.
Collaborations are more legible. A saved pairing suggests interest in what happens when two specific sensibilities meet, which is a more particular kind of attention than liking someone's catalog in general. It is closer to studying than to enjoying.
This page cannot confirm that reading applies here. A track gets saved for many reasons, including ones that have nothing to do with the music, and a favourites list carries no annotations. The observation stands as a way of thinking about the data, not as a conclusion about this file.
Fifty-Seven Thousand Plays
The count sits in a band that says the record travelled without being pushed. Enough listeners to rule out a purely local circulation, not enough to indicate any promotional apparatus behind it.
Collaborative uploads often over-perform relative to their creators' solo material for a mechanical reason: two audiences get a reason to play the same file. A pairing that lands in the tens of thousands has usually drawn from both sides and then picked up some listeners who belonged to neither.
That band is also, in practical terms, the target for independent work. It is where a record demonstrates it can find people on its own merits. Everything above it requires either luck or money, and everything below it has not yet proven the basic thing.
What a Favourites List Is Not
It is not an endorsement, a business relationship, a cosign or a statement of any kind. It is a bookmark.
That distinction matters enough to state plainly, because coverage of what artists listen to has a habit of inflating a saved track into a narrative about influence or alliance. Nothing in the data supports that here, and nothing here is going to imply it.
What the list does honestly provide is a set of pointers away from one catalog and toward others, which is a genuinely useful thing for a reader who has exhausted an artist's own work and wants somewhere to go next.
The Record as Filed
Willbandzz x chxnk. 57,572 plays on SoundCloud. No album, no stated release date, no duration, no genre tag and no credits are attached in the available data, and none have been supplied here.
It appears in the SoundCloud favourites belonging to Daj', an independent artist operating out of Las Vegas, Nevada, whose own catalog runs across two SoundCloud handles with distribution handled direct and no label intermediary in the chain. That is the whole of the relationship between the two.
If you want more of his records, this page is the wrong one. If you want to know where a working artist points when he is not pointing at himself, fifty-seven thousand plays is a reasonable place to start.
