SME AFFILIATE SPOTLIGHT: MR. DILLIGENCE


MR. DILLIGENCE


*taken from the NME Wreckidz site

Virginia native, Massachusetts transplant Mr. Dilligence is the founding father of TRP Productionz and NME Wreckidz.

His bio is almost too long to get into, but lets just start with the fact that he has been a musician since the age of 14, and a producer/engineer since the age of 19. He bought his first 4-Track cassette recorder and sat in his dorm room his freshman year of college at Salem State and blew off all his classes to pursue his dream of making quality and artistic work on his own.

He then graduated to a digital 8-Track and a project studio set up about 5 years later and formed "MAD TR!P" along with brother True Persuasion and a few other down cats. Since then he has not looked back, producing (which in his terms means making beats from scratch, engineering, mastering, everything) for over 25 underground emcees from the Boston Suburb/Cape Ann area and releasing them on his NME WRECKIDZ record label.

Since then he has produced songs for several licensing deals under his belt, including tracks on the Ghetto Brawls DVDs series, several Indy movies (the Kingston High, Holla!), BMX bike, skateboard and wakeboard video/DVDs as well as tracks on prominent mixtapes put out from coast to coast (Potent Product, Meddafore, CUDJs, etc). He is currently still producing for several local emcees while keeping his mind abroad on the bigger picture, while still having the time to raise his beautiful daughter and enjoy his blessed life.

Words from Daneja Mentale:

I became a big fan of Dillz (that's what I call him) since I first heard his team in 2001.
During that time Napster was free and illegal and Crunk music started taking over in the South. I stumbled into a track recorded by NME Wreckidz artist Lu Chin Chen on MP3 dot com. The title was "Money" and I was attracted to the dark twisting of Kraftwerk's "It's More Fun To Compute" sample and Lu's thought-provoking lyrics. Not only did I hear this song, but there were also others from his crew and I instantly became a fan. I contacted Dillz on another music network by the name of Soundclick and we bonded a friendship. Around 2006 we started exchanging music. He'll send beats to me and I'd send remixes of some of his artists' songs. He is one of the most down to earth individuals in the game. He is my musical brother and even though we haven't had a chance to meet in person, he is family. I have nothing but respect for his work ethic, for he works diligently.
