Career

Sauce Walka started his rapping career in 2007 under the name A-Walk, and was part of a Houston rap group called Mostheard.[4] He began releasing mixtapes as Sauce Walka in 2014, in the same year forming the duo Sauce Twinz with fellow rapper Sancho Saucy.[5] Sauce Walka credits himself with popularizing the modern usage of the hip-hop slang term "drip", a word he uses extensively throughout his lyrics.[6] In 2015, he gained attention after releasing a diss song titled "Wack 2 Wack" targeted at Drake, accusing him of appropriating Houston hip-hop culture.[7]

Sauce Walka has collaborated with various notable hip-hop acts such as A$AP Rocky, Bun B, Chief Keef, Lil' Keke, Maxo Kream, Migos, Slim Thug, Travis Scott, Trinidad James, and XXXTentacion.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14]

The Sauce Factory

Sauce Walka founded the independent record label The Sauce Factory in 2014. The label name is often abbreviated as TSF.[15] TSF has currently signed 5th Ward JP,[16] Peso Peso,[17] Rizzoo Rizzoo,[18] Rodji Diego,[18] and Sancho Saucy.[16]

Sauce Walka was involved in a gun-related incident in summer of 2009.[19] Court records show that he pleaded guilty to deadly conduct after being charged with shooting and wounding a person during a concert at Texas Southern University, which resulted in him serving community supervision. In 2018, Houston Police told KPRC that he was involved in a criminal street gang called "Mash Mode" in 2009, at the time going by the moniker "A-Walk".[20]

In 2018, Texas state court documents described The Sauce Factory as a "documented gang" and "known for criminal activity". In response to the accusations, Sauce Walka stated:[20]

“I'm going to keep rapping because I know I'm not a gang. I know we're not a gang, I know that I'm a record label, I know that I'm an artist [...] I'm not into gang activity or none of that stuff that's going on, I'm not worried about that, it's not what's going on.”

Personal life

Sauce Walka is of Honduran descent. He is the son of Honduran parents, residents of Ceiba, Honduras' the Iconic Trapper
