Rhythum beat machine & a Yamaha DJX keyboard and started making his own beats. About 2 years later after supplying the whole hood with beats he received a 2way email from Rodney "Darkchild" Jerkins of Darkchild Productions.
Rodney, impressed by what he heard in Nu Jerzey Devil's music initiated a few meetings in Miami where they worked on a few projects. As soon as Nu Jerzey Devil got back he became a part of the Darkchild team.
From that point they scored the movie "Honey" and laced the soundtrack. Since that went well, the two moved out to L.A. to work on "My Baby's Daddy". In the midst of working, Rodney told Nu Jerzey Devil he was beyond impressed.
Phat Rat who has joined the Darkchild team was close with Game and was able to link the two in the studio to record. Their first recording was "The Black Wall Street Anthem" most notable on The Black Wallstreet's Official Website's intro page.
After that initial recording, the two continued to record numerous songs as their chemistry between beats and rhymes grew.Game told Nu Jerzey Devil about future plans with his own Black Wall Street label; and asked Nu Jerzey Devil to be a part of his label.
As Nu Jerzey Devil saw a brighter future with The Black Wall Street, he opted in on the offer and was flown back out to Compton, California where he resides with the rest of the BWS family.
