Mohamed ‘<a href="spotify:artist:0dR7y8UmP5rjxOoCxuCxJl" data-name="W7lf">W7lf</a>’ (pronounced as Wolf) is a 25-year-old rapper &amp; songwriter. Born in the city of Sirt in Libya, he now resides in Perth, WA. As an independent up-and-coming artist, <a href="spotify:artist:0dR7y8UmP5rjxOoCxuCxJl" data-name="W7lf">W7lf</a> takes influence from old-school New York ‘Boom-Bap’ style of Hip-Hop and dextrously blends it with elements of the Jazz, Funk &amp; Soul genres to create thought-provoking Neo-Soul &amp; Hip-Hop.


<a href="spotify:artist:0dR7y8UmP5rjxOoCxuCxJl" data-name="W7lf">W7lf</a> strives to incorporate music from his own culture - Eastern, Bedawin traditional music - into the progressive sounds of Hip-Hop. He believes in creating something catchy, yet lyrically profound. If it can’t tell a story, the song cannot be released. His debut album <a href="spotify:album:3bhUJhUIFqzrhTj9x26O0i" data-name="Along Came a W_lf">Along Came a W_lf</a> is both the perfect soundtrack to a party and an autobiography in which listeners could learn about Mo’s life.


For Mo, writing lyrics is a means of therapeutic release. Whilst he remembers Libya fondly, his experiences in times of war between 2010-2011 are a key reason that he began writing poetry. The loss of close family members was a huge psychological burden, and Hip-Hop became the perfect means for Mo to process his grief.


Moving out of Libya when he was 16 years old, Mo began writing rhymes, taking inspiration from the likes of Black Thought to Eminem to J. Cole &amp; Kendrick amongst many others; His current favorite of ‘23 being Free Party. He continued to write and was able to record his first studio song when he was 22, after settling in WA.
