Award winning San Francisco emcee Watzreal is considered by many that know him to be a community staple within the Bay Area. With his emotionally honest lyrics, his positive energy, and his old school sound smoothly flowing over impeccable production, Watzreal focuses on making relatable music that connects with his listeners on a deep and personal level. His debut album, “Wisdom Wit Attitude,” has been critically acclaimed by fans and labeled “one of the best debuts in 2015” by the Underground Hip-Hop Blog. His most recent release, “THE: The Human Experience,” was rated 4/5-4.5/5 stars by various Hip-Hop Blogs, and his music video for his hit single from THE “Just A Dream,” was recently given an award from the Bay Area Hip Hop Music Video Film Festival for, "most visually striking music video.”

Between Jan 2016 and Sept 2017, people watched in awe as Watzreal seemed to do the impossible completing 10 tours with no manager, no PR, and no financial investments
(7 of which were done in 2016 alone). Watzreal has toured with Planet Asia, Chino XL, Afu-RA, performed in 15 states, and was solely responsible for the booking of 4 out of the 10 tours, including his own solo tour. This accomplishment quickly put Watzreal in the forefront as one of the lead DIY Hip-Hop touring artists in the Bay Area. In addition, Watzreal has strung together a series of successful Underground Hip-Hop shows as a promoter, had a highly successful monthly event in San Francisco which ran for 2 years strong, and has worked with youth through Hip-Hop for over 5 years. With so much accomplished, in such a short amount of time, it’s easy to see why those who know him regard him as, “the hardest working rapper in San Francisco.”
