About Us:

The love of music has always been in the heart of Dewayne Petty a.k.a "Pettidee". When you hear the name Pettidee, know that it equals raw, hard hitting music filled with encouragement and inspiration. "When it comes to music, producing is my first love", and you can surely tell by his detailed tracks. Dewayne Petty changed the world in 1973, born in Tallahassee, FL and raised in Jacksonville, FL. He certainly knew what it meant when you say the words 'dysfunctional childhood". He's been through it all, from physical and sexual abuse to life in the streets as a hustler. He then found an outlet through music, and in 1988 "Pettidee" was born. From just making amateur loops on his boom box to the excellence you hear today. Pettidee accepted the call on his life and through God, did a 180 degree. He didn't just sit on his gift he acted quickly. He talks to the youth at juvenile shelters and inmates in prison with his life story and something he calls "the truth". He tell upcoming artists, "In this industry, talent comes a dime a dozen. There are MC's that can rap circles around me, but can you contribute good things to the youth' Can you serve', can you take the fact that this is 10% music and 90% how you live'". Being in the industry for over 10 years, he's learned a lot and still learning, with the support of his wife and two kids. Since he made his undying commitment to his creator, he's become a vocal tool that's not just sitting in the toolbox. Everyday Pettidee's career accelerates beyond measure due to his love for music, creativity in producing and his intense desire to show the youth the traps set out for their lives. There is a solution to your problems.
