Producers Spotlight: Wally West aka JDiablo

Q: What's your name and where are you from?

Wally West aka JDiablo. I'm from BRIDGEPORT, Connecticut. I was born in Detroit, Michigan and I also used to live in Tampa, FL for 6 yrs and have since moved back to CT.

Q: What makes your brand of production unique?

"STAY TRUE & BE ORIGINAL" is my motto/lifestyle. I'm an innovator. I don't follow trends, copy styles, etc. I'm the opposite when it comes to music, fashion, and art. I like to be original.

Q: What's difficult about being a producer coming out of Connecticut?

Connecticut is not well known in the hip hop culture and there's no connection/plug out here in order to shine in the game. There's a lot of talent here but the music scene lacks unity, a support system and role models. We don't have a blueprint to follow so it's hard for artists and producers to get the recognition they deserve.

Shoutout to Max B (FREE MAX B) & French Montana/Coke Boy movement though. They genuinely respect and love the state. They've  shown that through their music.

Q:  Do you think Connecticut can produce more nationally recognized artists?

Of course, we have a lot of talented artists in CT. We have to stop looking for hand outs, really invest in the craft, put the egos/pride/jealousy/envy/hate/etc... to  the side and really REPRESENT Connecticut like Chris Webby did.

It's not difficult to become successful now with social media and other platforms that help connect artists and fans.

Q:  Who are your top 5 MC's from CT?

I'll tell you 3 who have inspired and motivated me.

Shortii P (RIP), CityyTowers (Undefeated Rap Battle King) & Chris Webby (Current Leader of CT)

Q: What projects are you currently working on?

I'm working on a few productions for my artist BenNY's next album titled "Earned Not Given". We just released a new single called "I Said It". It's a very smooth song.Go download it at https://soundcloud.com/reekindie/benny-i-said-it-prod-by-jdiablo

I'm also working on a compilation album coming soon.  My  16th (last)  beat tape "SUPREME" is out and you can listen to that on my website. [JDiablo.com] 

Q: What are some of your long term goals?

I'd like to get a label deal with my own imprint, become a successful A&R and make history with people I believe in. I know what I'm doing and know what I want. I'm a visionary.

Q: Anything else you would like to say to the people?

Live your life to the fullest, ALWAYS love what you do and do what you love.  Never give up on your dreams. Don't chase glitz and glamour. Say waddup when you see me in public! Last but not least STAY TRUE & BE ORIGINAL! #Classico
