Bred from a sound that evolved as a youngster listening to his parent’s music, to producing for the likes of Kendrick Lamar, J Cole and ScHoolboy Q, certified RIAA Platinum producer Willie B. embodies all that is music in this modern era of Hip-Hop and Pop music.
But while he’s produced for some of the greatest rappers of our era and helped form his artist Mickey Taelor’s new project, Willie B. has been bumping elbows with the who’s who of Hollywood for nearly a decade. Since then, Willie B has still been producing raw East Coast sounding beats while at the same time cranking out more pop friendly songs like Mickey Taelor’s “Work It Out,”
With the introduction of one of his favorite artists, Mickey Taelor, Willie B. has stepped into new territory as an executive producer overseeing Mickey Taelor’s debut effort, Essentials.
“Mickey was always my favorite artist since I heard her music. The songs that we make are like my kids, and we just trying to put these kids out right,” Willie B explained. “Now its just about getting the music out there and making sure people understand what we were trying to do.”
