Pez Waters was forged in the core of Hip Hop culture—from Birmingham, AL's breaking cyphers to being a founding member of the influential Chicago collective F.E.W. (Fifth Element Warriors). His 20-year journey includes sharing stages with a diverse range of icons, from the raw energy of Crucial Conflict and the revolutionary spirit of X-Clan to the incendiary power of Immortal Technique and the lyrical prowess of Brother Ali, as well as fronting the genre-fluid band Oui Si Only You.

He returns with new 2025 music, beginning with the focused single "YADA YADA"—the sound of an MC refined by time and sharpened by experience.

Exploring The Depths Of Your Chill : Who Is ShoPaRo?

ShoPaRo’s story starts in the basement of his childhood home with roaring amplifiers playing his favorite punk tunes. Soon he graduated to playing Metal music which led to many years of active performing, countless hours of guitar playing, recording etc. As time went on, his tastes morphed into that of Classical & Jazz Guitar. A taste that had actually formed from his love for Progressive music.

Fast forward to the present time, one can hear the nostalgic influences of the Boom Bap era of Hip Hop, modern Neo Soul guitar playing, and even those ambient undertones of Post Rock. Though his goal is to explore the many depths of chill, it is not in a conventional or modern approach. ShoPaRo uses a method that will appeal to that of true music lovers, those that can understand the meditative effect of distorted guitars as much as the head bobbin’ of Boom Bap style drums. Paired this with the ambience of nature and everyday sounds that surround you. This unique audible experience of sound and melody that is consistently progressing is what one might simply be call . . . ShoPaRo
