Tim Winter, president of the Parents Television Council, called “Blackout” a “compelling, personal story about how the music industry really operates” that “also offers an enlightening message of hope for the music industry and for its broader impact on our culture.”

His deep, seductive voice has resonated on the airwaves of many of the nation’s top-rated radio stations, and he spent 10 years at BET as Program Director, consultant and on-air talent.

Lil Will is the newest artist signed to GRAMMY AWARD WINNING songwriter/producer DRUMMA BOY's DRUM SQUAD.

When it comes to hip hop no one is more synonymous with the billion dollar culture then Tennessee's own Lil Will.  A tenacious young mogul whose talent and unprecedented hustle as a host, writer, actor, producer and artist and all around entertainer that has afforded him major industry clout and the ability to cultivate key relationships with some of the industry's most well-known people.

Like the overnight success stories that you read about, Lil Will packed up everything he had and hightailed it to LA , and no sense of what would happen when he got there, but he knew he had to go. Though everyone thought he was crazy, he did it anyway; and he embarked on a journey which included filming an episode of “MADE” on MTV touring all over the US with many talents such as Mindless Behavior,Diggy Simmons, The New Boyz, Travis Porter and to get Co signs from veterans such as the RZA from the legendary WU TANG CLAN and DENAUN “MR” PORTER of EMINEM’S SHDY RECORDS AND D-12 campand as fate would have it, he would be privy to meeting one of the world’s biggest super producers Drumma Boy, who just so happens to hail from Memphis, Tennessee also. The two would make a super connection and in what seemed like the blink of an eye, Lil Will would have the bragging privileges of being an official signee of Drum Squad, a label created and founded by Drumma Boy himself.  Lil Will is busy in the lab these days working tirelessly on his first studio single via Drum Squad, but definitely makes time to hit some of the hottest red carpets and awards shows in all of Hollywood. Lil Will, to call him anything but legendary would be insulting.
