Dwagie is a Taiwanese rapper, songwriter, and TV personality who has become a staple in the local hip­hop scene since his first album, Lotus From the Tongue, was released in 2002. Gaining an increasing amount of international media attention, Dwagie has been featured in TIME Magazine, Reuters, CNN, BBC, the Discovery Channel, and more.

Dwagie creates lyrics about hardship, evil, triumph, and good, with the belief that hip­hop in its purest form should reflect life and the human condition. Wanting always to make dreams become reality, Dwagie is an artist that believes he should give back to help others to achieve their dreams. Dwagie has produced tracks and put on charity concerts for a number of causes and institutions including Typhoon Moracot, the Fukushima earthquake, orphanages, and animal shelters. Dwagie’s second album, People (2011), featured a track with the Dalai Lama. The album received eleven nominations in 2012.
​
Dwagie released his 3rd album, Refuse to Listen, in 2014 with a track featuring Nas. He plans to release his first English language EP later this year.
