Born and raised in N.W., Underground rapper Whoa, with his hard-hitting beats and introspective lyrics, digs deep into the crevices of DC and unearths the most authentic narratives of adversity, pandemonium and perseverance yet to be told.
Whoa got his start as the lead vocalist for a local go-go group The Young Legends Band in the late 90′s. After the band broke up, he continued to hone his writing and composing skills which evolved into a stylistic rhetoric which offers new insight to the revolutionary works of his influences Jay-Z, UGK, Nas, LL Cool J and Tupac.

Heavy in the local music scene with tracks from his latest mix-tape entitled, Tales of a Young Legend, Whoa currently performs at spots like Pure Lounge, Club Fuegos, Club Pure, Selam Lounge, 12nightclub and Zanzibar.
Whoa’s creative agenda includes mixing old school with new school, gritty lyrics with rich, multi-layered instrumentation to create an authentic voice and style living up to the hearsay that he is the resonating voice of the hood and DC urban life.
