What started as making beats in a university dorm, eventually blossomed into an obsession with singing, songwriting, and producing records. Early exposure to the likes of Curtis Mayfield and Stevie Wonder, coupled with his own interest in a booming era of electronic production, set in motion what would soon become the sound of Cole William. “From a songwriting perspective, the level of detail Frank (Ocean) incorporates is just fascinating. But as far as performances go, the first time I saw (Anderson) .Paak , I knew that’s what I wanted to give people”. As an additional influence, Cole William also Credits Kid Cudi. “His vulnerability on record was something I never heard before. It gave me the courage to be just as unapologetic in my own work”. Cole William found success with his debut single: Rituals, a track entirely produced in his basement studio with mixing and mastering helmed by Frank Ocean collaborator Eric Mosher. In a matter of months it had amassed hundreds of thousands of streams on Spotify, solidifying the potential behind the process. “I wanted to do it all myself, It was slow and at times and you have to pull away from ideas that just aren’t that good but I wanted to create MY OWN sound and do it in a way that was self sufficient”
