Walter Moszel Williams (born June 18, 1993), known as Zelooperz (stylized as ZelooperZ), is an American rapper. He is a member of Detroit-based hip hop group Bruiser Brigade and is signed to their record label Bruiser Brigade Records.

Career

He released two LPs in 2019, Wild Card and Dyn-o-Mite, and in 2020, he released three: Gremlin, Moszel Offline, and Valley of Life. In 2021, he followed up with the album Van Gogh's Left Ear.

Zelooperz released the album Dali Aint Dead in September 2025. The album features appearances from Zack Fox and Paris Texas.

Alongside his career as a rapper, Williams is a painter. He has described his painting style as being influenced by Francis Bacon and Hajime Sorayama. Several of Williams’ album covers are painted by Williams himself, such as the cover of Van Gogh’s Left Ear, which is a self-portrait.

Williams has sold paintings under his stage name Zelooperz as well as the moniker Moszel Offline (not to be confused with the 2020 album of the same name).
