Biography

Bow Wow

Shad Gregory Moss was born on March 9, 1987 in Columbus, Ohio. Moss began his career as a rapper at the age of six where he was a warm-up on The Chronic Tour. During that time, he was spotted by rapper Snoop Dogg. Snoop gave Moss the name Lil Bow Wow. Bow Wow made his debut appearance on Snoop’s 1993 multi-platinum album, Doggystyle. Bow Wow was soon signed to Death Row Records. After a few altercations, the young rapper was then signed to Epic Records where he went under the supervision of Jermaine Dupri. Dupri had previous experience with young rappers. In 1992, he formed the highly popular child rap group, Kriss Kross. Bow Wow was also featured on the Wild Wild West Soundtrack with artists Will Smith and Dru Hill.

Bow Wow’s debut album, Beware of The Dog, was released in 1993. It was produced by Dupri with help from DaBrat. It reached top ten on the Billboard Top 200 without having a huge hit single. The main single from the album, “Bow Wow (That’s My Name),” did not make the top 20 on the Hot 100 Chart. The album, however, went multi-platinum. The single, “Bounce With Me,” was also placed on the Eddie Murphy movie, Big Momma’s House, soundtrack.

In 2001, Bow Wow collaborated once again with Dupri, and released Doggy Bag. The album reached number two on the R&B and Hip-Hot Charts. It did not make it into the top ten of the Billboard 2002, however. That same years Bow Wow appeared in the film, All About The Benjamins.

In 2002, Bow Wow landed the starring role in the basketball themes film entitled Like Mike. The film allowed the rap to gain more popularity through a larger audience. The rapper was also featured on the film’s soundtrack. The most notable single from the soundtrack is when Bow Wow collaborated with artists Fabolous, DUpri, and Fundisha in the single, “Basketball.” In 2003, Bow Wow dropped the Lil on the release of his album, Unleashed.

they follow foot steps not live off, like me i'm going to follow the foot step of my idol, i'm not living off of her.	hip-hopluva113
thats tha right attitude 2 have if u want 2 succed in life	jiggyX7
another to add to the list, ashlee simpson, EWW! lilsuperstar, its one thing for me to say "i love rock ima learn the guitar" (which i am) and then work my ass off to get somewhere, its another thing, for one of these kids to be all, hmm you know, i could be famous so i suppose i will be.	LPfan4LYF
hip-hopluva113 skews me	LPfan4LYF
its 2 hard 4 tha realist people 2 get famous deez days cos of alla tha manufactured crap around. example? S-club 7. when dey were about 2 split dey had a contest so dat tha 7 best lil kids between tha ages of 9 and 13 got 2 form a band called s-club juniors. OMG! ykno what else? dey suk. bad!	jiggyX7
Yeah but its all about who you know or are related to these days, is it not? Sad, there are plenty of good bands they could replace ppl like ashlee simpson with.	LPfan4LYF
Mmm i thought he had talent.	lilmiss
ive got talent but oh no people aint gonna look at jiggy. hes 2 small 2 b a rappa... life as a midget sux.	jiggyX7
What do u mean u're to small?	lilmiss
im 5"2. so people still think im 10 years old.	jiGGyx7
Mmmm well i'm 1 60 metres high= 5' 2493438.	lilmiss
so ur basically tha same size as me.	jiGGyX7
Bow wow didnt live off anybody he got famous without the help of anybody in his family cuz there is nobody in his family that's famous. Compare to all the other people you named. So he made it on his own. And besides if you were in Solange, Ashlee, and Romeo place u know u will try to do the same thing. So basically what im tryin to say is stop HATING!!!	Gwenneka
And Beyonce aint living off her father she living off her talent. Just cuz he is her father and manager doesnt mean he living off her. Does that mean just cuz Usher's mom manages him she living off him. No!!! Cuz it takes work to be a manager. Its not a easy job. If i was a singer my mom or dad would have been my manager too.	Gwenneka
do people still write his lyrics??	yunghustla
fisrt off....bowwow can rap so he aint living off of nobody, and if he waz who the hell iz he living on???? and beyonce could sing unless theres something seriously wrong wit chu...anywayz, if any of ya got offened or anythin, mah bad, im jus speaking my mind...	KrumpLovinQT
Thanx y'all supportin BowWow, he aint livin of nobody, plus whoever said Beyonce's sistas name sounded like a spice , its Salonge, now please explain how thats a spice.	buksi
i think Bow Wow is HOT!	ladyomarion05
BOWWOW CAN RAP, HE GOT HERE BY HIS DAMN SELF, INCLUDING GOD. NOBODY HELPED AND HE AIN'T MOOCHING OFF OF ANYBODY. AS FAR AS ASHLEE GOES, SHE IS THE COMPLETE OPPOSITE OF HER SISTER, SO IT DOESN'T COUNT. AND FOR SOLANGE, WELL IF BEYONCE WAS MY DAMN SISTER I WOULD DO THE SAME THING. TO THINK ABOUT IT AS MUCH FAMOUS BEYONCE IS SOLANGE IS NOT, WE JUST KNOW HER AS BEYONCE'S SISTER.	SINCERE23
bow wow can rap and hes cute im happy 4 him and ciara	south_side
to sincere23 wow you are really a dumba i think i know more about your lil peice of s* b** wow than you if it wasn't for snoop there would be no bow wow.Don't you remember snoop found bow wow when he was at some concert or something like that when bow wow was like 6 years old and snoop signed him to death row around the time tupac was still under the label then so he must have been in a kick a label for a 6 year old.But after that bow wow moved labels to so so wack and had jermaine dupri right his raps so how the h* can you say bow wow can rap. So to sum it all up if it wasn't for snoop there would be no b** wow	PredicateFelonie
