38 Hours to 106

Chilling for the moment.... Zooted as ever..... So much support, so much pressure. They say you can only measure a man by his ability to perform when he's under pressure. First time I've honestly felt like everybody's behind me. My city's been showing the most love of course, and if you know anything about where I come from then you definitely know that showing love isn't a common thing. Shits actually hitting me for the first time, I'm about to be in front of millions lol.... WTF? .. lol... Not that I don't deserve it because I've definitely bust my ass to get to this point but it's just like damn, so many "what ifs" going through my head. I've had to been asked the question "Are you nervous" at least a million and twenty two times in the past month, and to finally answer that question, to an extent yes. I'm not at all nervous to perform, it's just the magnitude of the possibilities that may result from my performance. I've had to have watched 8 Mile 100 something times in my life but for the first time I actually feel the same way Em did. Ain't gone choke or throw up tho lol, don't trip. It's just crazy. I've got the opportunity to shine light on the city that I was born and raised in, a city that gets so much recognition for negative shit. This performance isn't about me, it's about any person that's ever been doubted time and time again reminding them that no matter your environment or situation that you can also do whatever you can think of. Never ever thought things would happen like this, least not this fast. Am I ready? Wednesday we'll see.. Sweet dreams to those that are growing closer to sleep, as for me, I'll be here. God Bless

"Dear Toledo"

‎"Was told a winner never quits & a quitter never wins, so do that mean I'll rap forever to feed my kids?

$.25 till 5pm

Zoned out..... Just vibing to different music, shits really starting to hit. Never been one to second-guess myself, but this is one of the first times I ever felt like so many people were placing their bets on me and cheering for the kid. Crazy, most say I never give myself credit, but truly I don't see the point in it, least not now, because to them I may have accomplished alot but to myself I haven't even scratched the surface of what I plan to do. When you're full you don't really think about eating but when you're hungry with nothing eating is all that u can think of. I tell myself "No one likes my music, no one listens" because it keeps me wanting to stay assertive and not let up. For the past few weeks all I've been receiving is emails about how the whole city and state is behind me, that everyone is watching and looking for me to be that one. Me? Lol fuck no, can't be hahahahahahah.. I'll be all the way 100, I never really knew how many appreciate what I do, all I ever here is the negative he say. I'm really bugging like damn, in 21 days I'll be on one of tv.'s biggest shows, LIVE! Shits crazy, never ever thought things would happen so fast. God knows how hard I've worked and how much I've been thru and I don't want anything except to take care of my family. That's all I want, never was the most popular cat or dude all the chicks checked for, so to behave like that guy now would be so senseless, I honestly don't care for the extra attention because I'm no better or more of a person than anyone else. I just wanna take care of my family. Most only get that 1 chance, and this may very well be mine... No sweat tho, I'M FROM TOLEDO

I.L.L.

smh

Another restless night, I can't sleep for shit. If only people understood and really knew how much making music is only the easy part in the music industry. I pour my heart out each and everyday, and still haven't even gained entrance yet, no worries tho. I never complain about the hardships and sacrifices becaues I chose this. As tired as my body is I'm still loving every second. I'm still trying to get used to the whole "I have fans" ordeal, shit still creeps me out lol, such a blessing. Almost a month away from the one performance that may change my life forever. I can't even stunt, I never invisioned all of this happening so fast, but I'M READY, belee dat!

This love thing

‎1st time in a love that's unconditional. I admit, I've never been the one for love or even a committed relationship, it's like a new job without training. I'm truly learning as I go. I've made some of the worst decisions and mistakes, and I hate that now those actions are the cause of today's consequences. I just wanna make her proud of being mine again.

Core DJ's/GTG Back to School Bash

Shoutout and thankyou to everyone involved in making this a success. I was totally blessed and fortunate for being a part of this. Gotta love the kids! SN: Yes, I did perform on top of the Fun Bus lmao

LET ME GUESS... U WANNA KNOW HOW I FEEL BOUT THE DISS RECORDS HUH?

Quite honestly I enjoy it all. Sometimes people forget how competitive this game really is. I never let the things that others think about me affect me, so why would I let lyrics affect me. I'm comfortable with myself and that's what matters the most. I wish nothing but success and blessings to any and everyone, and yea that even includes the people that diss and don't care for me. You'll NEVER hear a diss song from B Wills about anyone, not because of the chance of confrontation, but because I wasn't raised like that, especially when it comes to the one's dissing that I was just close and cool with. Real shit it would be fake as hell of me to talk hella shit about someone that I was just doing music with and claiming as my family, what sense would it make, that would be fake as hell on my part. I just look at it as a sign of things to come and it's helping me learn quite a few lessons that I can include in not just my music, but also my everyday life. Call me what you want lol, doesn't bother me at all, and neither does disrespect. I show love to everyone and will continue to do the same. As much as we forget sometimes, we're role models and there actually are people that's watching our every move, not to mention I'm a father before anything. I'd never wish harm on anyone, especially knowing the behavior of those around me and a rap song isn't worth someone getting hurt in real life, whether it's me or whomever else. I got a family to feed, and I can't let em down. The sad part is that listeners love it all and don't care about the possibility of someone getting hurt because it's not them so they'll do anything to keep the shit going. Too bad for them because fortunately I'm headstrong enought to see through all of that. Not to mention you gotta look at it from a business aspect. If it's one thing I'm about it's for damn sure money. Now what promoter is gonna work with a artist that's feeding into that type of behavior and out here fighting every damn body lol. C'mon now. Now u got me? This situation is no different from gradeschool, people say negative things, oh well, pray for em and keep it moving because at the end of the day you may never really know what that person is going through. As I said, call me what you want, but I'ma a father first with a household and family to take care of. God Bless

TOLEDO FREE PRESS NEWSPAPER

B. Wills hits Main Street Bar & Grill on Sept. 25 Written by Martini Rox | | starmusic@toledofreepress.com It’s not often that we can welcome back a local rapper who has made waves across his home state and the rest of the country. B. Wills has spent his summer doing just that and at 6 p.m. Sept. 25, Toledo is welcoming him home with his very own homecoming at the Main Street Bar & Grill on 151 Main St. The winner of 2009’s Ohio Hip-Hop Awards Best New Artist and nominated this year for Best Mixtape and Best Mixtape Artist, Wills is gunning for a top spot in Hip-Hop. Softspoken, determined and extremely humble, it’s hard to imagine the hard knocks in his past that at one point left him being homeless and heading down a criminal path. Hate him or love him, you have to respect his hustle. In less than three years, Wills went from unknown to award-winning, proof of what happens when you give a dream your full attention. At first glance I noticed an individual with tattoos, piercings and a mohawk. I quickly gathered he felt free and willing to take some risks regardless of what others might think. As a rapper, he has relied heavily on the mixtape formula of rapping over the instrumentals of songs that top the Hip-Hop charts. but now, B. Wills will finally be able to express who he is as an artist; incorporating lessons learned by providing original music to go with his lyrics on a project set to be released in the next six months. For now, he is focused on providing a great show for the loyal fans who follow his every post on social networks. Realizing the odds are against him, what compels him to keep pursuing a career in rap? “I never knew sacrifice until I started music especially now that I have a daughter,” he said. “Not being able to see key moments in her life. I might be out at a show, I might have to miss a birthday party. It hurts, but to know that my baby will be able to go to college with no problem makes it all worth it.” Stepping out on faith, B. Wills had a chance meeting with Cleveland-based company, Gorilla Productions, the group responsible for the success of national and Ohio standout Hip-Hop artists like Kid Cudi, Chip Tha Ripper and Machine Gun Kelly, all from Cleveland. Having heard about the successful fan base Wills was quickly gaining, they asked him to be a part of their summer tour. Starting out as an opener at the beginning of the show, they soon began to see why B. Wills was a star. Selling his own tickets until he became a headliner, B. Wills eventually was able to headline a show anywhere in the country. B. Wills chose to bring it home to Toledo, where it all started. He’s slated to debut original music at his homecoming concert with Toledo favorites like T. Diamond, Yung Prof, Infamiss, Cleveland’s Chevy Blue and others. There are a few things he wants to make clear for those who are skeptical about supporting a Toledo artist. “I’m serious. There are so many that have come before me that might not have made the best of their situations. I want to show people I am for real. You can put your faith in me and I am not stopping,” he said. As we continue on …

New MIXTAPE?

Yea I think it's time. Shit's been so friggin' hectic lately but yea, I'm thinking next month I'll drop. I can't wait for people to finally hear me in my own realm. I'm thinking I may do three to four freestyles but the majority of the project will be my own original music. I've been going back and forth in my mind about the actual name of the project, still no for sure choice. Word's can't explain what's about to happen and soon the world will see what once my granny was the only to see. Hope ya'll living good out there, keep working and try ya' hardest not to go astray.

Captain F' Up

Once again I've done it, but this time the consequences are greater. Not really into letting the world know my business but to keep it real I let my passion of wanting to become successful come before the things and ppl in my life that matter the most. Family is one of the biggest things in any and everyone's life, I'm just praying that my past decisions and behavior won't take away my family...... I'm sorry

R.I.P. Martin Luther King Jr.

This had to be one of my most heart felt moments ever. For those that don't know, the Lorraine Motel is the location of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s death. Quite honestly I totally forgot the exact name of the place so as we approached the huge sign and I caught on, I went bananas. Believe it or not tho, that wasn't the part that captured my heart. The woman you see in the photos is Jacqueline Smith and I was BLESSED with the opportunity of meeting her and talking to her. Jackie ( As she told me I could call her lol) was the last tenant of the Lorraine Motel and was also working there when King was killed. King was killed in 1968 and yet she still lived in the motel by herself until 1982 when it was purchased by the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial. and she was pretty much thrown out. This is the crazy part, she's been living outside the motel everyday ever since as shown in the pics protesting the turning of King's death site into a national museum. Learning this story made me realize how strong the mind can really be. Jackie is totally amazing and I can't wait to see her again, till the next time I'm in Memphis. Oh and btw, she said "Beverly Scissorhands" is the best mixtape ever! lol, seriously I gave her the cd and she asked for my autograph and then popped it in her cd player. I'm thinkin damn "Outta all ppl me"? God is good

Crazy..........

My apologies to everyone for not performing @ Bash at the Bay. Still this moment I don't know why I wasn't able to do what I love. Hearing alot of stories about different people and their parts in this but oh well, the shit's over. Only makes things better for September 25th!

Sunday, July 25, 2010

Restless

Still haven't slept yet, it's about 3 hours from the whole Bash @ the Bay extravaganza, first being the morning conference downtown @ 10 I think. I've kind of always felt like even though I've won whatever awards, and been to however many places, I still haven't earned the proper placement of greats where I come from. I'm not at all into trying to be the hottest nigga in Toledo lol, that's horrible because I'm not thinking with a city-wide mind set. I never claimed to be king or no shit like that, it's useless, my competition isn't cats in my city, it's Drake, Wayne, Gucci, all those cats that's popping right now. At the same time though, there's no love like the love u receive in your hometown. I'm blessed already with the way people treat me and support my music but today, this performance @ the bash will finally put me in the lane I feel I deserve. I love my city, now it's time to show it.

Original Posters from WWII

I'm always asked "What's 1 thing about you that pretty much no one knows?" Well, I have the biggest infactuation with World War II. These are a few of the original posters that the U.S. used for recruitment purposes during this time. Just found out there's an actual WWII museum in Beachwood, OH so the second I get a chance, I'm there!

Back in the day..........

Man, was just looking @ pics of historical places in Toledo and came across this. It's so crazy because my Paw Paw used to always take me here as a kid, not to mention they've got the best hot dogs ever fuckin created lmao. Unfortunately my Paw Paw's not doing so well but he's still pushing. Love u and thanku for everything

Dear Granny

Missing u more than ever. I know it's been awhile since I've spoke your name. I've honestly been trying not to think about you being gone because of how much it hurts to be achieving all the dreams me and you talked about and you're not here. This life's becoming so diffucult with balancing but I'm doing my best while simultaneously not losing any of my own sanity. I've tried my hardest to write about how I feel but I just can't talk about you, I cry the second the pen touches the paper. Just love you and miss you like never before. It's really just now starting to hit me that you're not here, I still walk up the stairs and peek in your room in hopes of seeing you laying there. Nina's getting big and smarter than you're average 1 year old. Being a father is crazy lol, but I LOVE IT. Don't want to hold you up any, I'm sure you're making the best of your time where you're at. Tell my pops I said I miss him too.

IdK

Shits feeling weird round me. First I wanna say thanks to all the people that truly do support me, ya'll truly have made me the artist I am. When I say that shit feeling weird tho, I'm talking about the people that say they truly do care and support, but actions don't @ all show the same. I never ask for anyone close to me to do anything except just show the support that ya'll always talking bout. I love the fact that I can connect with thousands of people that I've never even met before @ shows, that shits dope, but to not see the people that I feel SHOULD be there hurts. I never say shit about it because I understand it's something I'm pretty much gonna have to get used to but damn. Mufukas claim they support but the second you're doing anything or got something going on they want the hook-up. THE FUCK? Maybe some don't understand but this shit is all that I have, all that I want. To tell me " Aw yea B Wills I fucks with u, I support you 100% " but aint never been to a show or copped a mixtape, that shits wack. It's not in no kind of way affecting my career because I'm blessed to have the faithful fan base that I have, but on a personal note the shit just isn't cool. NEVER THINK THAT BECAUSE I STILL SHOW LOVE AND NEVER BRING THE SHIT UP, THAT I AINT NOTICED, BECAUSE I HAVE. JUST KNOW THAT WHEN SHIT REALLY POPS OFF, YA'LL WILL BE THE PEOPLE THAT WON'T HEAR FROM ME. Thankyou again to all of you that do come out to the shows, downloaded mixtapes, any and everything because I truly appreciate you. As for you others, I can show you better than I can tell you cuz truly YA'LL ARE MY MOTIVATION :)

MY INTERVIEW WITH OHIOHIPHOPAWARDS.COM

interview: b. wills By essince Leave a Comment Categories: Uncategorized I met B. Wills last year at the Ohio Hip Hop Awards pre-party in Cleveland. Dude put on a hell of a show with some crazy energy and has been grinding ever since. I finally got time to catch up with him. Name: B Wills a.k.a. Beverly Wills Location: “Glass City” Toledo, OH Skills: Lyricist, Performer, Show Host, Poet Years in the Game: 3 OHHA Awards: 2009 Best New Artist Essince: What’s good, B. Wills? B Wills: Man, let me tell you, everything’s been a total blessing over this way, just more shows and music. What’s good, E? Essince: I know the feeling, man. Same here. I met you last year at the Ohio HipHop Awards pre-party. I remember us taking some pictures* when were were covering it for the blog and you did your thing. [note: pictures below taken by Royal Heir Entertainment] B Wills: Well thank you. Shouts out to the Ohio Hip Hop Awards for allowing me to do what I love most. Now that we’re on the topic, those on stage shots you took were dope! People till this day still tell me they remember the show I put on that night and that’s a great feeling. Ess: How long’ve you been rhyming? BW: I’ve been rhyming since grade school. I started out writing poetry around the fifth grade, that’s where I discovered my love for writing in general. I became serious about music about 3 1/2 years ago. E: Were you always an MC or did you ever do other aspects of hiphop or music? BW: Yeah, I’ve always just been an MC until recently. I’m hosting quite a few parties a month now (don’t forget to vote me “Host of the Year” at this year’s OHHA lol). I’m really beginning to branch out and explore all aspects of music and being a true artist, not just some rapper that’s going to be seasonal. E: You were always a guy who stood out with his fashion, too as well as musical style. Talk to me a little about individuality in hiphop, especially coming from a smaller market like Ohio. BW: Real shit, I feel that individuality is just as important as the lyrics, damn near. Let’s be all the way real, most rappers look the same, that’s no diss to anyone but just a known fact. There’s no kind of distinction or way to tell one cat from another besides their voice. This is a business and everything I do is some kind of promotion, from the clothes I wear, to my lyrics, and on stage performance. Regardless if one may not care for my music, they’ll definitely remember something about me. Familiarity is the key. Rappers can’t stand to be told that they sound like somebody else, so why choose to look the same? Now when I say everything for me is promo I mean that, but at the same time it’s me being me. Nothing that you hear or see from me is a gimmick, this is me. E: Speaking of smaller markets, as far as OHIO goes you’re reppin’ a smaller market WITHIN a smaller market, Toledo. What’s the scene like there? You’re a Megabus stop inbetween two bigger cities, Cleveland and Chicago. BW: Toledo is…… Toledo lol. There’s literally no place in the world like my city. Now as far as music, it’s really segregated. Everyone wants to be “King” if you will. Everything in Toledo is somewhat of a competition and I want to change that. I’ve always been raised to believe that there’s strength in numbers, you feel me? Now as far as the Megabus goes, I’ve never rode it ( pause ) lol. I’m always traveling to the larger cities but as far as relocating because of the lack of attention my city receives, it’ll never happen. If I can’t make it outta here, then that’s it. E: What’s in store for B Wills the rest of 2010? BW: Simply more shows and music for the remainder of 2010. I just dropped my most recent mixtape “Beverly Scissorhands” ( don’t forget to vote that “Mixtape of the year” ) which was hosted by Dj Mr. King and we’re still pushing that.

ANYONE NEEDING TICKETS CONTACT MY MANAGER EMBRACE (419) 290-0108 OR ME @ BWILLS419@GMAIL.COM OR ON MY FACEBOOK WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/BWILLS419.. LET'S GO!!

HAppy B-Day Pops .... R.I.P.

Wus up ma dude lol?.. Cornball shit huh lol... Aw man.. I don't even know where to start. I'm sittin here rolling thinking bout what you said u wanted to do for ya birthday this year.. ... Damn man. It's wild because I can write a million and one songs but can't find even half of a word to describe how I'm feeling.. I really believe that I'ma hate the entire month of April forever. My granny birthday, your birthday, and the day my grams passed which is crazy cuz that same day is my Paw Paw's birthday and he's in the hospital as we speak. Shit crazy right? When ma granny passed last April, that was it for me.. She was my ace, my heart and soul.. I didn't know what to do because most of all she was my best friend. U already know how me and my mom's relationship is and you know why I couldn't get close to my mom. I wanna tell u something and I need you to believe me, I forgive you for not being there. You don't understand what the 5 months that we spent meant to me, more than any accomplishment with music, or even life damn near. Granny passed in April, and I was done for.. All I wanted was a person to be there, never knowing that I would end up meeting you in July. We got so close .. so fast.. Then u passed December.. The whole time we were kicking it I was so scared to just straight up ask you what happened with the test, and were you really ma pops.. It just felt so complete to have that piece to a puzzle that was always incomplete. I was too frightened to know so I just went along not knowing, but just happy u was there u feel me. Never just went out and kicked it wit my pops, because I never really had one, then the second the tests came back that's when me and my mom's relationship died. I never looked @ her the same till that night.. That night in the car the night after thanksgiving changed my life. The one question I always had, u answered it without me having to ask. When you told me you were sorry I meant that shit when I said fuck it, you're here now. When you got to talking bout how the family would react when u was gone tell em, I understood. No one ever pictured that you had such a secret. From my understanding the only people you told the truth to was me and lil Darrick. Then you got to telling me "No matter what, take care of ya lil brother".. Right then was when I started thinkin ok, maybe he's just a little sick and worried. I was so fucked up that night after thanksgiving because it was the first holiday without my grams, but you telling me that u were indeed ma real pops gave me so much mufucking hope for the future.. Never imagined a week later I'd wake up to a voicemail from lil Darrick crying telling me that you were gone...... The funeral was so damn uncomfortable. So many people made me feel like I was a damn imposter and shit. Everybody snickering under their breath saying how shit aint true and I wasn't a part of the fam.. U know how much that shit hurt? O and Granny.. She refuses to believe it, won't go for it. She still calls me "Lil Darrick's friend" .. Haven't heard from anyone one since the funeral, ANYONE. fAR AS MY LIL BROTHER... THAT'S MA NIGGA!!! lmao.. We so damn close it don't make sense. Lol the family and his mom can't stand the shit, they tried to tell him shit like " He's got all those piercings and tattoos, he a devil worshiper, he on all these drugs and shit" lmao.. The shits horrible and I try to laugh because breaking down is something that I'm so scared to do pops. Every second of every day that I'm out my house, I'm "B Wills" and that's the persona I must carry.. Don't get me wrong now, I love my career and I'm dong ten times better than I ever imagined but that doesn't mean that Brandon is cool .. Everytime I go over my gram's house I walk up the stairs and peak in her room praying to see her laying watching tv.. The shits killing me, and I can't even ride down your street.. I just focus on music and being the best father. My career is @ it's highest point, show after show and city after city.. I still be buggin when cats outta town recognize me and approach me for pics.. It's such a blessing. Cat's talking that I may be included in the XXL's Top 10 Freshman of 2011!!!! I know, crazy right! It's so fuckin wild and I'm loving every second. I swear I wish you were here to see it, maybe the family will start claiming a nigga j/p lol.. I'm trying my hardest to keep cool but I know I'll breakdown soon.. U always got on me for not telling you bout ma next show so here it is.. Ma next show is May 1st here in Toledo @ Club Zodiac , ain't performed @ home in so long, I swear I can't wait. That's the night it's all gonna come out and I'ma leave ma heart on that stage, so if u can, please look down and tune in. Aint go hold chu up, just wanna tell u thank you for being real and giving me what I never had, regardless of how short the time was. Don't ever worry about Lil Darrick, I got ma brother. We good.. If somehow u can talk to the rest of the fam and let them know the truth, please do it, cuz as much as I don't wanna admit it, I need them too. Love ya kid B p.s. Don't forget to watch me May 1st... The show of my life
