Biography
Petey Pablo, born Moses Barrett III on July 22, 1973, is an American rapper best known for "Freek-a-Leek," his 2003 single that peaked at number seven on the Billboard Hot 100 and earned platinum certification from the RIAA. Before that breakthrough, he signed with Jive Records and released "Raise Up" in 2001, a tribute to his native Greenville that climbed to number 25 on the chart. The label released his first two studio albums: Diary of a Sinner: 1st Entry (2001) and Still Writing in My Diary: 2nd Entry (2004). His debut album was nominated for Best Rap Album at the 45th Annual Grammy Awards, while his second peaked at number four on the Billboard 200. As a Cancer, Pablo's attachment to his roots and hometown resonates with the sign's connection to place and legacy. Born in the United States, he represents a generation of rappers who built early-2000s success through regional specificity and major-label backing. After his initial commercial peak, subsequent releases failed to maintain the same commercial momentum.
