WoahDee Is Starting Fresh Without Starting Over

 

Baltimore Made, Liberian Rooted


Baltimore artist WoahDee is creating a sound that he describes as “rage and futuristic,” but his musical identity reaches much deeper. By combining the realities of the trenches with inspiration from old-school music, he has developed a style that feels energetic, unpredictable and completely his own.


His journey began in high school with 1200 Woah Fam, but attending college showed him the true reach of what he had created. Although he had never spent time in Prince George’s County at that point, listeners throughout the DMV were already connecting with his music.


“Seeing the wave I created, coming from Baltimore and having the whole DMV support me, showed me that I had something special,” WoahDee explains. “It showed me that I should bet on myself.”

WoahDee is also a first-generation American with Liberian roots, something new listeners may not immediately know about him. That combination of Baltimore upbringing, African heritage and DMV influence contributes to an artistic identity that cannot be placed inside one category.


Starting Fresh With “4 My Domerss”


WoahDee’s latest release, 4 My Domerss, arrived after a period filled with delays and unexpected obstacles. His music catalog was removed from streaming platforms, creating a situation where he had to rebuild his digital presence on paper—even though longtime supporters already knew how much work he had put into his career.


After repeatedly pushing the project back, he decided to stop waiting for the perfect circumstances.

“I said, ‘Forget it,’ and just dropped,” WoahDee says. “Whatever happens, happens. I’ve been holding too many tracks in the vault for too long. It was time to put the music out.”


His creative process often begins with a sound or melody that refuses to leave his mind. From there, he searches for the right production to match it. Other times, a beat immediately captures his attention and sends him directly into the booth. Whichever comes first, the process is guided by instinct.


4 My Domerss is more than another release—it represents WoahDee choosing progress over hesitation. He may be rebuilding his catalog, but he is not rebuilding his identity. The experience, audience and movement he developed are still present.


Like many independent artists, WoahDee has faced the complicated reality of local support. He acknowledges the genuine love he receives throughout Baltimore, but he also understands that hometown recognition does not always arrive immediately or consistently.

Instead of allowing that frustration to control his direction, he is concentrating on making his presence impossible to ignore.

“I’ve reached a point where I don’t care about it too much these days because it’s a distraction from where I’m going,” he says. “I’ve got to make them feel me even more.”


WoahDee believes his music is already part of the culture, even if some listeners are initially resistant to its futuristic direction. In his view, people are often uncomfortable with change until the rest of the world confirms it.


His next chapter includes new visual projects, collaborations, live shows, plans for a tour and continued work on his upcoming album, Domerology. Every release is powered by DaDomerss Entertainment, ACS and a team proving that major energy can come directly from a basement.

For listeners discovering WoahDee for the first time, he has one message: “Make sure you’re here to stay. I’m one entertaining MF.”
