Hailing from the notorious Castle Hill in the Bronx, Billz Raw has earned himself a handful of impressive co-signs throughout his underground career. Arguably the most impactful was the early support from the late A$AP Yams. In 2015 Yams tweeted out Billz’s first mixtape “Coke’s Plan” featuring childhood friend and collaborator E Millz, which put the project at the top of DatPiffs “What’s Trending Now” page.

In 2017 Billz Raw released his debut single “Pistol Pete”, which gained over 1,000,000 streams on Spotify alone. That same year, a state indictment lead Billz to go on the run for almost 2 years, limiting the amount of content he could produce. During this time, Billz released two singles, “Pop Out (2018)” and “Back to the Block (2019)” featuring A$AP Twelvyy & Bang Omighty. On May 1st, 2019 Billz was apprehended and arrested for drug charges. During his sentence, Billz released the single “On The Run”, which used his actual wanted poster in the cover art. After seven months, Billz was released on bail and bounced back with the single “Money Up (2020)” featuring A$AP Twelvyy, as well as production from A$AP P On The Boards. The song received recognition from the likes of A$AP Rocky and currently has close to 250,000 combined streams on Apple Music and Spotify.

More determined than ever, Billz Raw is currently working on his debut EP, and is expected to appear on A$AP Twelvyy’s upcoming sophomore album, “Noon Yung”. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
