What is a WRLD? And what is WholeWRLD?
WholeWRLD isn’t just a brand—it’s a tag. Most importantly, it has no fixed meaning; it’s whatever you make it. It’s how you define and observe your world, your vision. It’s whatever brings you happiness—that’s your WRLD, and you make it part of the WholeWRLD.
What Is Dasoguwop's WRLD?
"’My WRLD is music. The only thing I’m passionate about is music, it’s all I do all day every day. Without the music I wouldn't be Chris "

Dasoguwop is an underground rapper born in Providence, Rhode Island, throughout his childhood he bounced around from home to home settling in places such as, Pawtucket, Rhode Island, North Providence, Rhode Island, Cranston, Rhode Island and eventually South Providence during his teenage years.
As a child his interests were in video games like most children and writing. He loved writing so much he grew up wanting to become an author before pursuing music ever came to mind.
"Everything changed when I sparked that first blunt, I turned into a fein and lost interest in everything except my music and I just started going outside more and getting lit. One day I seen my brother making music in his room, that inspired me to start recording, my god brother is Cordae so seeing him get famous really made me believe I could do it too,
He would tell, WholeWRLD "I don't play games or write no more but I never lost the love for music, it only got stronger and stronger but that also grew with the za."

Dasoguwop's father would end up sending him to rehab due to his substance use, however he didn't want to go to rehab and leave everything he had behind, so he left. He would spend time on the streets being homeless at a young age until a close friend who he called Berto let him live with him.
Daso has wanted to pursue music for years but never to the level he would see himself at now. He told us, "It wasn't until last summer when I moved in with my boy Berto when I really started taking music so serious. The artists that inspired me when I first started I would say are Lil Skies, DC the Don, and Uzi. Because of everyone and everything I had around me my vision became so clear. Now I know what I want and I know I'm a get it. Berto motivates me everyday to keep going, he's locked up at the moment so free bro."
What would’ve become a dead end for most instead became fuel for Daso he plants to push himself and make it in life because in his own words "I want to proving to my family I'm not a fuck up."
