Tucson rapper Woodro ditches stage name and reintroduces him

For several years, Danny Foster had used the persona and stage name Woodro to carve out a rap music career that landed him on Tucson’s top stages and festivals.
But this summer, in a move that you can call an epiphany born of the chaos of 2020 and the COVID-19 pandemic, Foster dropped Woodro and reintroduced himself under what he calls his “government” name.
“I felt like I wanted to make stuff that deserved my real name and not hide behind a character I created at 15 in Tucson,” said the 20-year-old, who started his performance career in the eighth grade and has been writing rap music since sixth grade. “At a certain point I don’t need to live in this thing anymore. I just wanted to be entirely authentic with everything I was making. I didn’t want to hide behind the alias anymore.”
