We dive deep into the realities of growing up in North Oakland, what it actually takes to transition from street politics into a legitimate music business, and the grind of building a name as an independent artist. Spence keeps it 100 on the importance of staying solid, protecting your brand, producing for legends and knowing exactly how to maneuver, plus traveling to NYC to realize how they really love bayarea culture, On The Radar and cut ties when people in the industry start acting hella irry.

In Episode 16 of the Wake Yo Ass Up Podcast, the massive Super Bowl weekend energy continues live from the exclusive Warner Records R&B Super Bowl Mixer! This time, we link up with Oakland-born and raised artist Wavy Kamp Fee.
Known for bringing undeniable energy, bold visuals, and keeping it completely unfiltered, Wavy Kamp Fee breaks down his journey through the Bay Area hip-hop scene. We talk about the reality of building momentum as an independent artist, his perspective on the Bay Area versus the Atlanta music scene, and why he’s never afraid to step on toes or be labeled the "Villain of the Bay" if it means staying authentic. He also keeps it 100 on how to protect your brand, handle business at high-level networking events, and cut off the fake energy when people in the industry start acting hella irry.
Whether you are an independent artist trying to figure out how to navigate the current streaming era, or just here for the raw behind-the-scenes Super Bowl 2026 networking game, this episode drops the exact blueprint you need.
Tap in, take notes, and wake up your hustle.
