Rap comes to Cincinnati

A dynamic show featuring a rap star and a boy band is on the way to Cincinnati.

Bow Wow is performing at the Heritage Bank Center with his guest B2K. Shad Greogry Moss, who is known as Bow Way, is a rapper and actor. Snoop Dogg discovered him when Bow Wow was only six, which accounts for his previous stage name, Lil’ Bow Wow. So So Def Recordings, record producer Jermaine Dupri’s label, signed him when he was 11, and released “Beware of Dog,” his studio album debut, in 2000 when he was 13. His second album, “Doggy Bag,” dropped the following year and both were successful, he has continued recording and released “New Jack City II” in 2009.

Bow Wow also enjoys a successful acting career, appearing in numerous films including “Medea’s Big Happy Family,” and had a recurring role on the television series “Entourage.” He also appeared on “The Masked Singer.”

Accompanying Bow Wow is B2K, which stands for “Boys of the New Millennium.” The group first got together in 1998 and performed until 2004 then members went solo. They reunited in 2018 and 2019 and reunited once more in 2025. Their debut album, “B2K” dropped in 2002 and soared to the No. 2 spot on the Billboard 200 chart and was No. 1 on the U.S. Top $&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart.

The performance is scheduled for April 24 at the Heritage Bank Center. Organizers of events like this can use poster printing to create advertising for them.
