Biography

There are two artists with the name Bow Wow, for the Japanese hard rock/heavy metal act (see Bow Wow)


1. Shad Gregory Moss (born March 9, 1987 in Columbus, Ohio), better known by his stage name Bow Wow, is an American rapper and actor signed to Cash Money Records. He started rapping in 1993 and was noticed by rapper Snoop Dogg, who gave him his stage name then signed him to Death Row Records, and in 1998, at the age of eleven, Bow Wow was introduced to record producer Jermaine Dupri, who has since helped shape his career. He has since released six albums, including a collaboration album with good friend Omarion, Face Off. His seventh studio album, The Transition Of Shad Moss, will be released in 2010.


2. Bow Wow (バウワウ) - Legendary heavy metal act from Tokyo, Japan. Led by guitarist/vocalist Kyoji Yamamoto (山本恭司), the band formed in 1975. Started out as a melodic classic/hard rock band in the mid ‘til late 70’s, they quickly made a name for themselves and were touring with popular acts of the time, such as Kiss and Aerosmith. Yamamoto proved himself early on as an accomplished guitarist developing the “hammer technique” long before Eddie Van Halen made it popular. In the early 80’s Bow Wow changed their sound to a energetic heavy metal sound, fueled with powerful guitar riffs and fast-driven baselines. Spreading their wings internationally, Bow Wow played the Reading festival in Britain and the world famous Montreux Jazz festival in 1982.

    Japanese Heavy Metal band from the 80's is the True Bow Wow [23] It pisses me off when Last.fm not only mis-scrobbles an artist, but then proceeds to put their shitty counterpart in my library.

    There's no true and false, there's just Last.fm fail to have separate pages for artists with the same name. Does Last.fm really can't find a way to make different pages depends on albums titles of each artist? Then, if someone listening to album "X" it will scrobbling under [BandX] and album "Y" under [BandX-2].
