Willo

Date TBA

Visionary. American hip-hop artist, songwriter and innovator Willo has become somewhat of a folktale when hip-hop conversations spark.

As elusive as the Dallas Texas based creative may appear, his project Never Die is often considered to be a cult classic to many listeners.

Followed by the nostalgic, Slide EP, which received numerous nominations via the Dallas Observer Music Awards, and peaked his buzz enough to pack out The House Of Blues.

The multi-talented creative’s effort doesn’t stop there — as his artistry expands outside of music. Film maker and director are also bullet points on Willo’s resume. With a 2023 film pending alongside content creators: Dance Dailey, Tej Patel, and Cori Middleton.

With a universal fan base that adores his layered approach to song and visual, Willo is not only captivating — but frequently — highly anticipated.
