DJ WESWILL: I got my start by tearing up my dad’s old belt drive turntable; I kind of got interested in being a dj from there. I began to by records, making tapes, and watching some of the greats of that time.

DJ WESWILL: I was influenced by Kid Capri, Red Alert, Clue, Flex, Ron G, Cosmic Kev, Doc B, Jazzy Jeff, Jay Ski, there were so many at the time and that was when the art form and the technical aspect of Djing was at its prime.
TMC:How important do you feel a DJs role is in the industry?
DJ WESWILL: its probably the most important I feel and the most under rated. We break the records that the world hears. The artist makes the music, but who do they give it to for spins? Dj’s are the ear to the streets.
TMC:To get ahead in this game, what advise can you give to artist?

DJ WESWILL: Artists have to build some sort of a relationship with the dj’s. Sending your song to me on twitter of FB isn’t going to cut it, because unless I’m actually sitting in front of the computer at the time I’m not going to listen to it and at the end of the day, I’m not taking time out just for a random person. Artists must realize how many unsigned artists come at dj’s on a daily basis. However for those unsigned artists that I have built a relationship it easier to be able to work.
TMC:Are you a personal Dj to any artists? If so who?
