Willie “P-Dub” Moore, aka Pretty Willie and St. Louis, Missouri native is best known for his Urban/Hip Hop hits “Roll Wit Me,” “Lay Your Body Down,” “Good Thang” and “4 Walls.”
P-Dub, as he is affectionately called, was adopted as a baby and grew up in the church. He got his start as a child singing in the choir at Friendship Missionary Baptist Church in St. Louis, MO. But he was soon drawn to the sounds of Hip-Hop and signed his first record deal at the age of 12 in the 1990s with a small Midwest label and gained regional fame. Later, after graduating from the University of Mississippi-Oxford with a degree in Psychology, the Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity member signed his first major record deal with Universal Music as a rapper. He followed that up with a recording contract with Warner Brothers, but this time as an R&B singer.
In 2001, the married father of two made a great change in his life and returned home to St. Louis, MO. Since his return, in addition to co-hosting the Praise Mixdown with D. Stone, and making music to win souls, P-Dub has established several faith based ministries, the largest is the youth driven, Young, Fly and Saved movement which has a following of over 200,000. He is an ordained minister at Shalom Church City of Peace in Florissant, MO.
