Hip-Hop/RapAbout
Woanberg, whose real name is Tawoan Wallace, is a professional American rap artist hailing from San Antonio, Texas. However, he spent a significant portion of his childhood moving between Texas and Mississippi. Growing up in a single-parent household with his mother and older brother, Woanberg was exposed to a challenging environment.
At the age of twelve, Woanberg began following in his brother's footsteps and got involved in the street life, including drug dealing. In 2005, he experienced the devastating Hurricane Katrina, which not only displaced him but also resulted in the loss of his father. After the hurricane, Woanberg relocated back to San Antonio but continued to engage in troublesome activities, running the streets.
Amidst the pain and hardships, Woanberg's childhood friend introduced him to Point Blank Studios. It was there that he released his mixtape, "Unleashed," alongside his friend. They hustled by selling CDs at schools and wherever they could reach an audience. This marked the beginning of Woanberg's journey in the music industry.
Originally known by his street name, Cass, Woanberg released three solo mixtapes titled "Ain't Just Another Rapper Vol.1," "Should've Been Famous," and "Let Me Shine." Additionally, he joined forces with fellow mentor and father figure, Rockwell from Lama Squad South, and became a part of the Dump Bergaid.
Woanberg's talent and dedication have earned him recognition in various events, including winning church-sponsored competitions and performing at numerous nightclubs throughout Texas. He has also had the opportunity to perform at Slim Thug's car show and other notable venues.
Now, Woanberg stands as a fully independent artist, serving as the CEO and owner of Struggle No Moe, his own brand and movement. He continues to release major projects, such as "Sad Happy" and his recent work, "Ruff Draft: Heating Up." Woanberg's journey is a testament to his resilience and determination to overcome adversity and make a name for himself in the rap industry.
