THE EDITOR’S INTERVIEW Drama The Music Game Needs Me! Q. What is your full name? Paul Watts Stage name? Drama Record Label Name? Real Wit It Entertainment Q. What is your career background and where are you from? Currently I am the CEO of Real Wit It Entertainment. To be honest, I was not raised up into rap. I was not on TV or anything. My cousin mentioned to me one day that he had a record label and I lied saying that I had one too...although I really didn't. One day he asked me to rap for him. I did… Shortly after, he put me on his label. I became a part of he “G.I. Joe Boys.” We did shows under the name “D-Town Boys,” but the group quickly fell apart. I then went to a label called Mob City Records, then changing the name to “4 Lil G’s.” At this time, things began to get bigger. I worked with artists such as Soldier Slim, UNLV, Kings Entertainment a lots of venues. After making a few hits everyone parted ways. I ended up signing with another label called Blunt Records. For that period I was recognized as the artist “Lil Drama.” While, I did thrive as an artist of Blunt Records—it too came to an end. As of today, I maintain the name “Drama,” while representing my own record label. The last record I dropped is titled “Street Mentality.” Q.
