“If Your Real, You Are Already Great” says IWT
IWT is a Birmingham, Alabama based recording artist who can be defined as one who is always working hard to stay on top and always fighting hard to stay on top. From his lyrical content to his upfront delivery IWT has set out to be a force to reckon with. Born Tavaris Hunt in Birmingham, AL, IWT has always strived to be the best of the best. Growing up he credits such Hip-Hop legends as: Jay-Z, UGK, Nas , 8Ball & MJG, Biggie Smalls, LL Cool J and Scarface for fueling his love for rap music. These pioneers crated the blueprint for artist like IWT to make it in the rap game today.
This artist on the come-up doesn’t consider himself as your average Southern rapper. Much like many of his predecessors, the Birmingham native plans to stay true to his musical roots. IWT feels that it’s very important for him to rep his city, he wants the world to know about the new sound coming out of B-Ham. The rap star feels that it takes more than just dropping a few bars in the studio of rocking a few pieces of jewelry to be calling yourself on official Emcee. He feels it’s takes hard work, constant grind and the willingness to switch up your flow to really make it and be respected in the music business. Artist like IWT don’t come a dime a dozen, many of his fans consider him a naturally born hustler. IWT radiates star power from the way he speaks, walks and caries himself in the public eye and in the streets.
