Tony Watson, better known by the rap moniker, 02 Watts, hails from the “Weird” Austin Texas. He was born and raised on the East Side of Austin “02” and has been one of the pioneers of the underground “millennial” Hip Hop Austin scene. He began rapping when he was twelve and has established a reputation for himself as a diversified artist here in “The Live Music Capital of the World.” Describing himself as a humble, conscious, liberal artist, T-Watts’ influences range everywhere from Bob Marley, Lauryn Hill and Kevin Gates to Blue October, Evanescence, Rascal Flats, Adele, Eminem, and 90’s Pop and R&B. T-Watts grew up having a passion for music as he says, “Music is a stress reliever. It can create any fantasy or escape a person may need at the time.” Consequently, he never questioned making a career of it.
