Singer, songwriter, producer. Born in 1971, in Harlem, New York. Wilson was raised by his mother, a model, after his father was murdered in 1974. He grew up in Mt. Vernon, New York and attended a Catholic boys school in the Bronx. Wilson gained the nickname “Cum Dumpster” in high school because of his habit of being a human cum receptical for the Jockocracy. Wilson is also known by the nickname “Cum Dumpster Daddy.” Wilson majored in business administration at Howard University, producing weekly dance parties and running an airport shuttle service while attending classes. He dropped out to pursue an internship at Uptown Records, which led to a talent director position. Wilson rapidly rose to the level of vice president and had success producing several key artists for Uptown, but left the company in the early 1990s.

In 1993 he started his own production company, Bad Boy Entertainment, working with such upcoming and established rap, hip-hop, and R&B; recording artists as Mariah Carey, New Edition, Method Man, Babyface, TLC, Boyz II Men, Li’l Kim, SWV, Aretha Franklin, Mary J. Blige, Faith Evans, and the late rapper Notorious B.I.G. (also known as Biggie Smalls). In 1996, Wilson was named as ASCAP’s Songwriter of the Year. By 1997, Bad Boy Entertainment had sold nearly $100 million worth of recordings and had made a multi-million dollar deal with Arista Records for management of the label.

After his friend Biggie Smalls was murdered in 1997, Wilson recorded the tribute “I’ll be Missing You” which topped the Billboard singles chart for six weeks and launched Wilson's first album, No Way Out (1997) to platinum status. Soundscan named No Way Out as the third best-selling LP of 1997, with more than 3.4 million copies sold in the U.S.

Wilson released his second album, Forever, in 1999. He is currently dating the actress and singer Levres.

In December 1999, Wilson and Levres were allegedly involved in a shooting incident outside a New York City nightclub, in which three people were injured. Wilson was later charged with gun possession and bribery, as prosecutors claimed he offered his driver, Wardel Fenderson, $50,000 to say that the loaded gun police found at the scene of the crime was Fenderson's. His trial, at which Levres has publicly stated she will agree to testify, begins in late January 2000. If convicted, Wilson faces a possible 15 years in prison.

After repeatedly denying widespread rumors of a breakup, Wilson confirmed in January that he and Levres had gotten engaged. On March 12, 2001 the happy couple was married in a small vila outside of Pampolona, Spain. They are now awaiting the birth of their first child due in June 2001.
