As if we didn’t see this one coming!
Shad Moss aka Lil Bow Wow was on cloud 9 last year when he got signed to Lil Wayne’s Young Money Cash Money Records but sadly, the only thing that he’s gotten since he put his name on the dotted line was a lousy t-shirt (and a few hats)!
And he has a few choice words to say about it…
Details below:
ThatB*tch noticed that Bow Wow hit the tweets a few days ago to rant about how he’s doing everything “DOLO” and according to the Urban Dictionary it can be argued that his statement means…”all by himself.”
[Sidebar: Y’all know Bow Wow is prone to suicidal thoughts so y’all better keep an eye on his tweets for a while. For safety’s sake… But I digress.]
Could it be that BowWeezy is disenchanted about his connection to Birdman and Weezy? It does seem like Shad reps Cash Money a whole lot harder than they “rep” him. But that’s just my observation…
Even though he’s still technically a youngster, Bow Wow is like a grandfather in the rap game. I personally think he should revamp his image and come back on some other sh*t like Kanye did with 808’s and Heartbreak.
His target audience have all grown up and moved on to the likes of Drake and Nicki Minaj and I don’t think Bow Wow could hold a candle to any of them right now.
Even though it would be kinda risky, Bow Wow releasing an ol’ “artsy” album with him rapping and singing on auto tune under his real name would be a much better bet than continuing as plain ol’ “Bow Wow”… (and that’s just my personal opinion).
Can Bow Wow ever be what he once was or should he totally “reinvent” Shad Moss?

Here is where u lost me Michelle!
"His target audience have all grown up and moved on to the likes of Nicki Minaj"
Which adult or "grown up" (in their right mind) listens to Nicki?
She’s right. When he was "hot", his fan base were teenagers. Now they’re early to mid-twenties, which is now Nicki’s fan base.
nicki minaj fanbase is from 3year olds to 18 year olds #theEnd bow wow should become a business man. rap is not where its at for him anymore shit he should have artist under him he was handsome b4 all the tatoos he cuda been a male model like trey songz is for RocaWear
He was hot during the late 90’s when I was a teenager. His fan base is pushing 30.
Huh? Alot of adults listen to Nicki Minaj songs bish stop playin
Ok, that’s one, as in you
No shade.
ATLEAST OMARION GOT A PRESS CONFERENCE WHY HE SIGNED TO MAYBACH MUSIC…IN THE WORDS OF NENE…BOW WOM MY DEAR, "YOU’RE RIDING WITH THE WRONG TEAM!!!"
**WHEN
Maybe he should call himself "Mossy Moss". Cause everytime you hear Bow Wow that ‘Lil comes to mind. He should be "Mossin’"
LMAO…
I agree
I think he needs to just grind and get his buzz up then they will give him more respect
I THINK DO DIRT GET DIRT. KARMA IS A (B)EY-OTCH AND SHE’S ALL OVER HIM FOR THE DIRT & LIES HE HAS DONE TO OTHERS FROM JD, TO WOMEN, TO LYING ABOUT PAYING FOR BIG D’S FUNERAL AND NOW HIS DAUGHTER. I’M TOTALLY LMAO ABOUT HIS WACK CAREER & EGO BEING KNOCKED BACK TO EARTH!!!………JENNY JONES!!!!
I think he whines too much, but I also think he came into a family situation as an outsider. Young Money was already a crew when he decided to join the family. Of course he’s on his own he’s not with JD. He’s with people who are holding their own … Nicki (even though I loathe her); Drake, & Tyga all technically do it on their own. And their results are impressive look at their mixtapes…so truthfully Bow stfu and get to work.
None of the people you named did anything on their own. Once they signed to ymcmb, Wayne was on every single that was released.
so truthfully Bow stfu and get to work. <—— Bwahahaha
i agree with c
Me too, but I also agree with G. It’s like if you can get a major feature on your CD then you might get heard. Everybody gonna’ listen when they see Lil’Wayne on the credits. Like him or not he still making songs relevant.
No one’s checking for him. He needs to just invest in some real estate and retire @25. We can’t take him serious as a rapper. Considering he grew up rich from a kid. He can’t rap about anything "hood like" because he did not grow up in it. Bow..WOW have a seat in your palacious estate and take care of your daughter. Stick to acting. Rapping is not IT for you anymore. Now that your an adult babe.
It’s time for him to start working behind the scenes. Get an old gas station and turn it into a studio. Lil Wayne and them a pimp in the industry, they’re not going to tarnish the family name and put out BS. They’re going to put his record on the shelf and let it collect moss (They commonly grow close together in clumps or mats in damp or SHAD, I mean shady locations).
I knew this would happen. My mother told us when we were growing up that one day Bow Wow wouldn’t be as popular. LOL We LOVED some Bow Wow back in the day.She tood us to see him live. I’m still a fan Bow Wow but it’s time to grow up now. I did, I’m a registered nurse working on my Masters Degree -__-
"took" us to see Bow Wow.
If Bow Wow don’t sit his ass down somewhere!! The general public ain’t checkn for that no more. Damn I’m sorry his music is trash. And these cry baby rants are a shame.
It might be a good idea for him to seriously consider stepping away from the rap game for a bit and focus on acting, at which he is actually very good…Bow Wow never really seemed to grow into himself as a rapper; somehow I never "believed" him when he got older. At 10, 12 years old, he had J.D. to write his rhymes and shape his image…now that he and J.D. parted ways and he’s all grown up and trying to be his own person, it’s just not working for some reason. If he took a hiatus from rap, when he returned, I agree with ATLien in that dropping the name Bow Wow and going with his real name Shad Moss might be a mature look that might do the trick if he tried to develop a mature sound and quit bouncing around from crew to crew trying to fit in. Hanging with Soulja Boy did nothing for him, and YMCMB ain’t got the time to pay him no attention, not when Drake and Nicki are the cash cows of the label. Shad hunny, this ain’t you and it’s time you found yourself and grew up for real. PS. Take care of your DAMN baby.
…and in that order!
Right! Love it!
He seems to do pretty good with the acting/film. He should stick to that and put out a serious soundtrack with each project that way he can tackle his acting and rapping gig with one blow. Isn’t YMCMB soon to be branching out into other media? If they are trying to produce Evelyn Stank Lozada’s tell-all ho book then they can certainly get behind Bow Wow’s film and soundtrack endeavors.
Its a shame when you sign to a record label and they don’t support you.
Here is the RUB!!! When artists don’t POP they always fall back on "It’s the LABEL’s fault". When you sign to a roster that has a gazillion artists already and most of em HOTTER than you, where do u think u fall on the totem pole??? AT THE BOTTOM… Wayne jumped on a song with BowWOW– and ‘SWEAT’ did NUTHING on the charts… u get one chance sumtimes.. ask Corey Gunz… u get what u get if u not the HOTTEST thing on the label… IJS…..
He probably thought being connected to those successful artists would raise him up.
Some of his singles have not been great lately. But their is only 1 Bow wow maybe he thought going to Cash money would bring him all that fame he once knew. Managing his money better would allow him time to plan a strategy . He has definitely got to grow as an artist at this point and realize everyone is doing the same thing. So people are naturally going to want to see and hear the new artist. It won’t be long Niki and Drakes flames will burn out. Just do some features. Take time to find who Chad Moss is………..
I agree. Features keep a lot of artists on the grind. Take Fantasia. I just can’t seem to get through a Fantasia CD,but when she’s featured? I go straight to that track cause I KNOW I’ll LOVE IT!! She NEVER fails.Most of today’s best artists are at their best when doing features. Bey,Tasia,Kanye,JZ even Macey Grey and NO ONE owns a Macey Gray CD that they’ve actually played through. Snoop Dog should pray to the "Feature God".
It happens all the time fans grow up and move on to the next hot thing. Sad but true. That’s the reality of it all and the ones making $$$ the company is going to concentrate on them first and foremost. Perhaps he can fight his way back because anything is possible.
He can’t fight is way back. It’s a done deal, lol.
IMO, his signing with YMCMB was a terrible move. Then he started acting all "gangster" and whatnot, and people were really done. We don’t believe you. He does rep for them way harder than they do him. I remember watching a clip of BW, hitting up Weezy on his cell and the tone in Weezy’s voice was like "Why are you calling me?" Fastest phone call ever.
He should really back off of the gangster persona so much and soften it up a little. I think he would be received a lot better than he is now.
He will forever be stuck in people’s eyes as lil bow wow. He should just keep trying to act or come up with another name and style like his name sake snoop. But g is right none of those artist did it on their own once they were signed lil wayne damn near on every track. Not sure about why him doing hood rap would be any different than drake he grew up singing and acting in Canada…not sure how much street cred you get from Degrassi High…talent is talent just don’t know if he is that talented as a rapper. I mean would he he be able to get a deal if he was just entering the game at this age, instead of the cute novelty act he use to be?
That’s where he came from! Snoop! I couldn’t remember where he first came from. No, he would not be able to get a deal today. His time is over. Remember when he used to rap and hang with Lil Romeo? Romeo is in college now. A place where Bow Wow should be.
The only thing Bow had going for him when Snoop discovered him was he had an opportunity to takeover a market that was wide open. They needed a cute little kid for the kids with his style & bubble gum lyrics. I’m not sure why he parted from J.D,but he spent his entire youth with him and that connection is engrained in his whole brand. I think that YMCMB in pursuit of Bow was a clever ploy to end what was left of his withering career, because they Never intended on reviving his career or changing his image in the first place and he should have been suspicious of that instead of anxious to sign. Now Bow Wow is Bitter!
Michelle you lost me, grandfather of what game? All rap made after 1993 was gah-bage, not even hip-hop or real gangsta rap. Though I like Bow-wow when he first came out, he will never be on the same level as the SugarHill Gang, Kurtis Blow, Run D.M.C, Public Enemy or even come close to Wu-Tang, Common, Nas, Tu-pac and shall I say T.I. I do agree with you that he need to re-vamp his career and image. Young Money is a fad label, even their artists don’t bank on music only, they have their hand in other ventures.
Why would you even mention those other artist? No one and I mean no one is comparing Bow Wow to those artist. Now you slipped up when put T.I. in with that group.
I threw T.I in there because I happen to like him, so I am biased on that one. He is one of the only people I will listen too outside of my old skool rap when I decided to listen. But anyway she stated in the article ‘grandfather in the game’ and when I think grandfather, I think of those people.
[…] Read the article: Bow Wow Feels 'Some Kinda Way' About Lil Wayne & YMCMB… […]
Lol
He never really had that staying power to begin with. He was only hot for a little while and that was back when I was in high school in the NINETIES. I think we have seen his hay day. Did he go to college? He should try that.
Yeah, you’re right…when he was "LIL".
YMCM has Drake and Nicki, so they aren’t worried about working for Bow Wow.
The good news is, as Bow Wow stated, artists make the vast majority of their money on tour. He can continue to tour on his previous albums and make millions. He’ll be fine.
Bow wow should stick to acting at this point, Lil Wayne ain’t checking for him. Lil Wayne doesn’t really care about any of the YM artists but Nicki Minaj because she’s bringing in the most money. When her fans come out of diapers get off the tittay and grow up, her a$$ will play out too and he won’t be checking for her either.
So bow wow may not be bitchn by himself.. for long.
Ya’ FEEL ME? Oh,and you mispelled bitchn. It’s B.I.C.T.H and in THAT order. The ‘n’ is nuptual.
Omg that lil video clip on the front pg explains it all…..
