Tawanwad Wanavit

July 5, 1991 — Chiang Mai, Thailand

Tang Tawanwad Wanavit is a professional cinematographer, photographer and rapper born in Chiang Mai, Thailand.

He strongly had a passion for street photography at first which could be proved by many finalists and awards he received in the past several years such as Miami Street Photography Festival, StreetFoto San Francisco, London Street Photography Contest, etc. Most of his works are shown by techniques of splashing flash, which finally brought him to join an international street photographer collective called Full Frontal Flash.

Tang used to be known to the world simply as a cinematographer and photographer in Thailand. That all changed when he started dropping tongue-twisting rapid-fire raps over sparse tracks in early 2020 under the alias TangBadVoice. The tracks he released then have garnered over 10 million views on YouTube alone.

TangBadVoice released his first full album in 2021. In 2022, he released the single "I Will Follow My Dreams" (เดี๋ยวจะทำตามฝัน), an Original Sound Theme for the Thai film "Fast & Feel Love".

Tawanwad is in a relationship with the photographer and actress Rinrada "Lin" Pornsombutsatien.
