Bow Wow, born Shad Gregory Moss, made his rap debut at just 13 years old with Beware of Dog (2000), a double‑platinum, Top Ten album that launched him into mainstream success. Rising from his early years as Lil Bow Wow, he matured both personally and artistically, releasing a string of albums that produced multiple chart‑topping singles including “Bounce with Me,” “Bow Wow (That’s My Name),” “Let Me Hold You,” “Like You,” and “Shortie Like Mine.”

Beyond music, Bow Wow built a parallel career in film, starring in Like Mike, Roll Bounce, and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. With a career spanning music, film, and touring, Bow Wow’s evolution from child prodigy to seasoned entertainer has secured his place as a lasting figure in hip‑hop and pop culture.

He is performing at Tacos and Tequila Festival: Kansas City on Saturday, June 13, 2026.
