3. When did you start rapping and who or what inspired you?
I started rapping at the age of 12 I use to go around the city with my sister rapping at showcases and in the studio. I was inspired by music period in my early childhood I use to watch my uncle smoke and vibe to Bob Marely, Marvin Gaye, and a list of Motown greats while on the other hand my cousins would be in the streets bumping NWA, Spice 1, MC Eight, Master P, Brotha Lynch and a long list of others. The Jay-z Hard Knock Life Tour was what sent me into overdrive that was my first rap concert then came the South sound with Pastor troy, Mystikal, Ludacris, Outkast and a long list of others I started rapping right after that I didn’t take it serious until I was 17 and then Kanye West, Nelly, T.I., 50 cent, Eminem, busta rhymes, and lil Wayne was the big dogs selling records.
4. As an up and coming artist, do you find it difficult to maintain personal relationships while perusing your music career?
All the time I have had so many people in my life come and go and when I think back and reflect on it some of it was real petty and some of it was out of my control. I have to stay focus and it seems like when I do that people say I’m acting Hollywood but I just keep grinding because that’s what I am suppose to do.
5. Tell us something you enjoy doing [besides music] that most people don’t know.
I enjoy designing things like clothes and jewelry because I realized those are something’s that make people feel good or important

My most memorable moment so far would be seeing an Arena full of people dancing to my music yes you heard me right they played my music at a Blues Hockey game right after nelly hot in herre and when I saw all those people dancing to it I can’t describe the feeling it was crazy.
8. If you could work with any artist, (current or past) who would it be and why?

Past Artist would be Marvin Gaye, Michael Jackson, Bob Marley,2pac, Biggie Smalls, Big L, David Ruffin and Eddie Kendricks, Jimmy Hendrix, Jackie Wilson, too many to name but that’s just a few.

Bio
Robert Taylor Watson III who is known to the world as Rob Wottz (watts). Rob Wottz was born in a small city called East St. Louis, IL. Rob started struggling from day one trying to survive in the streets of East St. Louis. He was raised by his mother whom was a single parent trying to raise two kids on one income. Rob's father walked out on him and his sister when Rob was born, so the love his mother and sister couldn't give him Rob started searching for it in other places. Rob found love and attention in the streets as he got older problems continued from being shot at to breaking in people homes and cars. Hopes and dreams were something he thought only comes true for people in movies not in real life. Until one day Rob decided to change his life and started putting his pain and all of his thoughts and emotions on paper.
Music is in Rob's heart, mind, and soul he goes to sleep thinking about and wakes up thinking about it. Rob Wottz is a very ambitious person who believes in working hard to get what you want in this world. Rob Wottz has been trying to get in this music business on the national scene and each the year he keeps on getting stronger and better and his love and drive for music grows. When that day comes for Rob to shine hopefully the world will be ready for him.
