Willie Wilson (born July 25, 1996), known professionally as 454, is an American recording artist and producer born in Longwood, Florida, and based in Manhattan, New York. As a record producer, he has produced for the likes of Playboi Carti, XXXTENTACION, and Smokepurpp.

454 began making music along with his sister PigTheGemini at age 12, going under the alias Squills. In an interview with Rolling Stone, he shared that moving to New York delved him deeper into music.

I feel like once I got here, the stuff that I started to make was so different, because things are much quicker here than they are in Florida. With just that alone, I had my head in different spaces, because I wasn’t having the same amount of time to create as I did in Florida. I had to get a job and things got real.

454’s production side of music is “Quasimoto-inspired,” ethereal, and hypnotic. Similar to his production, his rap side of music is fast-paced and dreamy.
