''Roll Wit Me'' Is The #1 Selling Single In St. Louis for 9 Weeks And Starts To Spread Throughout The Mid-West and South; Riverfront Times Predicts Song Will Be The ''next monster hit from St. Louis...''

NEW YORK--(COLLEGIATE PRESSWIRE)--Jan 31, 2002--Republic/Universal Records` promising new rapper/singer Pretty Willie is off to a great start with his explosive hit ''Roll Wit Me,'' the lead single from his forthcoming debut album, Enter The Life of Suella. ''Roll Wit Me'' has been the #1 Best -selling single in St. Louis for 9 weeks, and remains the #1 Most Played Record at St. Louis` KATZ-FM 100.3 (The Beat), while consistently registering in the Top 10 at St. Louis` other top radio station, WFUN since it`s release last December. The catchy song`s popularity is rapidly spreading throughout the South and Mid-West, receiving airplay at urban stations in Kansas City, Toledo, Nashville, Louisville, Memphis and more.

''Roll Wit Me'' is a catchy ode to Willie`s hometown, St. Louis, produced by D2 Entertainment, a local production company. The St. Louis weekly, Riverfront Times predicts the song ''will be the next monster hit from St. Louis ... Pretty Willie has something for everyone -- some mid-western bounce and Michael Jackson-esque ballads.''

Pretty Willie (Willie Moore Jr.) is a former track star who received a full scholarship to The University of Mississippi where he received a degree in Psychology with a minor in Political Science. He is a multi-talented rapper with diverse interests: he is a member of the African American fraternity, Kappa Alpha Psi, plays the piano and guitar, and hosts his own weekly #1-rated radio show on KATZ 100.3 (The Beat) in St. Louis.

Using his unique gift of singing and rapping, Willie`s creative flavor comes to life on Enter The Life Of Suella. The album showcases his soothing sing-song delivery, use of live instrumentation and mesmerizing story telling. The set will be in stores March 26th.

Pretty Willie will make his first national television debut on Soul Train, February 9th.
