N.C.D. was first discovered by Daryl Eaton the owner of Black Diamond Entertainment the summer of 1998. At that time his label only had one artist signed, (Boo Rossini) who is now signed to Young Jeezy's C.T.E. Music. Daryl Eaton took Sleepy Will and N.C.D. under his wing and began the art of teaching the group how to record on a professional level. They released there first tape, "Who Is N.C.D." later that year and it instantly became a hood classic. Although the group received recognition as one of the top new acts in their city, creative differences ultimately led N.C.D. into parting ways with Black Diamond Entertainment and perusing their dream of owning their own independent record label... In 2000, N.C.D. released there debut album "Mass Manipulation Presents N.C.D." and experienced moderate success, selling more than 12,000 copies (out the trunk) within the first few months of the projects release. During that time Sleepy Will immersed himself in the "ins and outs" of the music business and quickly emerged as the leader of the group which consisted of six members. In 2002, N.C.D. released there third album "The Ten Tyrants" which also experienced moderate success but, due to members constantly going in and out of prison, it was decided that the members who were the most dedicated to music would pursue solo careers. In 2006, Sleepy Will moved to San Francisco, California and began to study film at The Academy Of Art University. In 2014, Sleepy Will decided to record his solo project entitled "The Legacy" which is still being promoted heavily to this day. In 2015, Sleepy Will released his first mixtape entitled "West Coast Mobbin' vol 1" for promotional purposes. To date, Sleepy Will has given away over 20,000 physical copies of this project for free.
