Wallstreet Wes

WHO IS WALLSTREET WES?

Wesley Robinson better known as WallStreet Wes, is the ultimate success story. Spending time in prison can shape people in many different ways. For Wes, prison was the catalyst he needed to change his life for the best. Using his time behind bars to learn a new skill. Wes has exceeded all expectations of what a former inmate can become.

Poetry isn’t just an art form. It also serves as a release for those who choose to create. WallStreet Wes found poetry during his incarceration. Using the gift of written language to not only express himself but also as a tool to aid his mental health.

Realizing the power of poetry, Wes began teaching other inmates the skill as well. In hopes of improving their overall understanding of themselves and as a tool to aid in their mental health journeys. It was during this time that Wes was deemed the Poets Laureate of the prison system. A position he still proudly holds to this day.

Wallstreet Wes

Recidivism was never going to be a problem for WallStreet. Since the end of his incarceration Wes has gone on to become a successful business owner, event host, educator, and creator. His compassion for people and passion to serve others have allowed him to become a major influence in the Cleveland, OH area.

Becoming certified by the Cleveland Clinic in Mental Health and First Aid have allowed Wes to partner with New Visions Unlimited (Mental Health Services) and become sponsored by Comma Club Clothing.

The award-winning poet is open for booking across the country. Inspiring, thought-provoking, wise and powerful are just a few of the words used to describe the poet who rose from the prison system.

NEW MUSIC ALERT: SWIZZ BEATZ

SWIZZ BEATZ is the next man up for the culture. The legendary producer released ‘Hip-Hop 50: Vol 2’ a few days ago to rave reviews. With Hip-Hop turning 50 this year, Mass Appeal(Nas’ label) has been doing it’s part to facilitate the celebration of the movement.

Swizz is taking the helm similar to how DJ Premier did in June of last year. Vol.1 was dope and had great features from Nas, Lil Wayne and Rapsody. The new installment has 6 all new songs. Swizz aligned the project to feature some of the nicest collabs in the game.

Swizz Beatz Hip-Hop 50: Vol 2

WHAT TO EXPECT

The second track from the EP “This Sh*t Right Here” gives us a monster of a collaboration. Featuring Lil Wayne & Jay-Z, Swizz drops a massive brass production track. While Jay is quick in his chorus “this sh*t right here”, Wayne rips fire with bars that had both references to Drake and Mike Tyson. Check it out down below.

The project also features Jadakiss, Benny the Butcher, Nas and Lil Durk. Swizz is a renowned voice in Hip-Hop and it’s amazing to see his impact during the course of that impactful time. One of my favorite tracks is “Take ‘Em Out” which you can also check out down below.

on ArtistMusic Videos add comment
Grandaddy Souf

GRANDADDY SOUF is a well vested artist in Hip-Hop. For over two decades, he’s has blazed a path in the music industry that is the stuff of legend. Born in Orlando, Florida Souf began his campaign in 2001 when he signed to Loud Records. Four years after staying loyal to Steve Rifkind, he would become the first artist signed to SRC.

In celebration of 4/20 Grandaddy Souf released a hit new single “Got Dat Gas” yesterday that is the new anthem for smoker’s worldwide!

Grandaddy Souf

GOT DAT GAS

Produced by Dielog, the track is raw as Grandaddy rides the track effortlessly. I was in the studio while the track was in the rough draft stages. We were in Texas for the annual Texas Fleet Week conference and at one of the locations scheduled for an artist soundstage, there was a studio in a backroom.

I was able to witness his creative process in real time. He fed off the energy in the room and was able to produce a quality track that’s both a banger and relatable.

Check out the official music video for “Got Dat Gas” down below. The visual, produced by Death Panther Media, features cameos from Fleet DJs’ own DJ Souljalife. The video was captured at Eva’s 1925 located in Jacksonville, Florida.

Straight Official Sit Downs: Willy Beegle aka The Poet Emcee

on ArtistInterviews add comment
Willy Beegle

WILLY BEEGLE (aka The Poet Emcee) stopped by our headquarters this week for the latest edition of Straight Official Sit Downs. @klassikceo served up the questions for the aspiring artist. Check out their one-on-one below and click here for more editions of emerging artists on Straight Official Sit Downs!

Q&A WITH THE POET EMCEE

Introduce yourself. Tell us who you are and where you are from?

My name is Willy Beegle aka The Poet Emcee and I am from New Haven, Connecticut.

Was there any artist that interested you in joining the entertainment industry?

Not really. I’ve been acting, a musician, intellectual and scholar since elementary school for the pure love of Hip-Hop and Art in general. I can say I’ve inspired other people to get into the industry.

Who and/or what inspires you to create?

My inner G (energy) sees the world around me in a different way. Allah inspires a picture to my minds eye and i bring them to life.

THE CREATIVE PROCESS

How would you describe your sound?

In its origin, my poetic and lyrical style is called “Boom Wry-tin”. After being mentored by Universal “uvee” Beegle it has evolved to what is now, “E.S.C.O Cold Flow” (Enlightened, Sophisticated & Creative).

What is your creative process like?

Jay-Z said it best and in the shortest words. “Put on the right beat, leave the door cracked and let God in.”  The story to my song, 10 Crackz is my favorite to tell. 

What artist(s) would you like to collaborate with?

I have no picks to who I’d like to collaborate with. Anybody would be a blessing to work with.

SHIFTING GEARS

Willy Beegle

Never let the naysayers convince you different on what God-given gifts you have. If you hear the drums, follow the beat.

Willy Beegle

What is the most talent/skill you have that most people don’t know about?

Most people think I’m mixed. They’re surprised that I’m 100% Puerto Rican. I know multiple languages and hold all elements of Hip-Hop to the core. I have an ear for music that can hear through the universe and eyes that can see past the tangible.

What would you be doing right now, if you weren’t doing music?

I wouldn’t be alive. The choice was a stick. A pencil or a gun, which is called a Stick. Music is immersed into my DNA. I couldn’t imagine what type of person I’d be if my parents weren’t who they were. 

Who are some artists/people you admire and why?

I admire myself for never giving up and taking a chance to see what I am made of. Both lyrically and spiritually. This journey has been the worst and the greatest. My yin and yang to my purpose for life.

IN CLOSING

What is the best advice you’ve received?

All money ain’t good money.- Ron Murrdah

If you could change anything about the industry, what would it be?

The artist would own their masters and have more control over their image.

What’s next for you? Where would you like to see yourself in the next year?

Still performing and hitting new markets where no one knows who I am.
