From his beginnings as a dj in 91, to his sparks in production at the end of the 90s / beginning of 00s, everything is good. Will the funkboss began his career as the resident dj of the only french club dedicated to soul and hip-hop. He began to produce remixes and hip-hop instrumentals, then he left for new york for 3 years to perfect his prods and dj sets and returned to lyon, pumped up.

Upon his return, he put his discoveries to good use and founded le gang du lyonnais with his friend raf, a group specializing in productions for french rappers and singers. They collaborate with the cream of urban artists and in 2003, they obtain a gold record for the single of 113 (from the collective mafia k’1 fry) “au summum”.

Today, will the funkboss produces hip-hop, soul, disco, nu-disco and house, on quality labels (plaizir music, smokin beats and boogie butt records…). In short, he has always been in the groove. just pop it!
