New Drip Legxnd Puts His Drip on Every Beat He Touches.

New Drip Legxnd is a wizard on the boards. Here’s his story.

Talent and timing make for success. Often people have one instead of both, which only breeds frustration. With Xzavior Williams, known by the producer name, New Drip Legxnd, his work ethic and business savvy helped him gain attention from influential producers and artists. He signed with Big Oomp Records in 2017 and soon after landed his first major placement in 2019 on Casanova’s song, “So Drippy”. But before Big Oomp signed him to the label, he was simply a kid who loved music. Long before we knew him for bringing drip to every track he touched, he was just someone who found out about producing through FL Studios.

Born in Nashville, Tennessee, Xzavior spent his formative years moving around a bit of everywhere. At a young age, his family moved Xzavior and his sister to Arkansas, where he was exposed to an eclectic mix of music from Miley Cyrus, Katy Perry, Lil Wayne and Drake. These artists served as his musical heroes and influenced his drive for music.

“Living in Arkansas changed my musical perspective. It made me branch out,” says New Drip Legxnd. He lived there for a few years before moving back home again in 5th grade.

At the end of his middle school career, Xzavior learned about FL Studios from his AAU Coach. Curious to find a program that would allow him to produce songs, he began his own apprenticeship, learning from YouTube University and the school of hard knocks.

“I watched a lot of YouTube. It’s one of the best teachers you can have,” says New Drip Legxnd. Inspired by the process, New Drip doubled down in high school, posting daily content on his Instagram page and also networking with local musicians who needed beats.

Networking put New Drip in contact with local mentors on Nashville’s music scene and out-of-state contacts like Jakobi. Jakobi, who is Future’s oldest son, established a working relationship with New Drip, who sent him beats frequently as he worked to build up his social media presence.

“I seen him on Instagram Live and he asked for producers to send beats. I sent him some, and he said we are going to have to work more.”
