About Lil Bow Wow
At only age 13, Bow Wow made his rap debut on Beware of Dog (2000), a
double-platinum Top Ten hit, and though he struggled to rival such breakout
success in the years that followed, he persevered impressively, maturing as an
artist (as well as a man) and releasing a series of albums that met varying
degrees of commercial success. In addition to his music career, Bow Wow also
found regular work in Hollywood, beginning with Like Mike (2002), a star vehicle
for which he recorded a soundtrack. Successive film appearances included Johnson
Family Vacation (2004), Roll Bounce (2005), and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo
Drift (2006).

Born Shad Gregory Moss on March 9, 1987, in Columbus, OH, Bow Wow began his rap
career as Lil Bow Wow, a moniker acquired during his brief relationship with
Death Row Records, then the home of Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg. A subsequent
relationship with Jermaine Dupri and his So So Def label proved more fruitful
for Bow Wow. Under the guidance of Dupri — who had previously guided
other kid rappers, namely Kris Kross and Da Brat, to mainstream success —
and songwriter/producer Bryan-Michael Cox, the young rapper was primed for
success. 

Bow Wows debut single, Bounce with Me, was released in summer 2000 and appeared
on the soundtrack to the Martin Lawrence film Big Mommas House. The song
featured the So So Def female R&B group Xscape and became a Top 20 hit in both
the U.S. and U.K., charting at number one on the stateside R&B and rap singles
charts. Meanwhile, Bow Wows debut album, Beware of Dog, also became a major hit,
selling over two and a half million copies; its commercial success was partly
due to the popular follow-up single Bow Wow (Thats My Name), featuring Snoop
Dogg, and a pair of subsequent minor hits, Puppy Love and Ghetto Girls. Bow Wows
second album, Doggy Bag (2002), was another major success; it peaked at number
six on Billboards album chart, eventually going platinum, and it featured two
strong singles, Thank You (which prominently samples the Cars 1981 hit Im Not
the One) and Take Ya Home (produced by the Neptunes during their prime).

Bow Wow broke off his relationship with Jermaine Dupri for his third album,
Unleashed (2003). Released by Columbia, the album was a commercial
disappointment, peaking at number three on the album chart yet selling less than
a million copies in the long run. A couple well-charting singles did result,
though — Lets Get Down, featuring Birdman, and My Baby, featuring Jagged
Edge — and the album did boast some first-rate production work, including
more beats by the Neptunes. Dupri resumed his executive production role for Bow
Wows next album, Wanted (2005), and good fortune resulted. The album went
platinum, peaking at number three, and a pair of singles — Let Me Hold
You, featuring Omarion, and Like You, featuring Ciara (with whom he was
romantically linked for a while) — went Top Five. 

The hits continued for Bow Wow in subsequent years. His fifth album, The Price
of Fame (2006), included a few big ones: Shortie Like Mine, featuring Chris
Brown, Outta My System, featuring T-Pain, and Im a Flirt, featuring R. Kelly.
For Face Off (2007), he collaborated with one of his peers, Omarion, an R&B star
and friend with whom he toured. The Half Man, Half Dog, Vol. 1 (2008) and Half
Man, Half Dog, Vol. 2 (2009) mixtapes led to his 2009 album New Jack City II.
His 2012 effort Underrated landed on Birdmans Cash Money label and featured
labelmate Lil Wayne on the lead-off single Sweat.
