Today we’d like to introduce you to OT Deezy.
Hi OT, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
OT Deezy, a 26-year-old hip-hop artist from Cleveland, Ohio, started his career in 2017 when he signed an independent record deal with SBYZ Entertainment in Los Angeles at just 17. That year, he walked his first red carpet at the Hollywood Maxim Hot 100 Party and attended major events like Karma International, Rae Sremmurd’s private birthday bash, and Coachella. Now, as the CEO of his own label, 4WAY Mafia Records, OT Deezy has established himself as an independent artist.
He has gained recognition from Cleveland’s FBG artist Doe Boy, Johnny Blaze, and Lil Cray, known for the “Kyrie Irving Anthem,” and connected with artists like 55Bagz from Yo Gotti’s CMG camp. OT Deezy is known for his aggressive, emotion-filled lyrics, drawing heavily from his life experiences. Later on in his career, about 2020, OT Deezy was wrongfully accused and indicted in a 9 count felony indictment, where he had spent a combined 22 months incarcerated and on house arrest. OT Deezy took the case and the charges to trial, determined to prove his innocence. after a 2 month trial, OT Deezy was deemed innocent, and walked away with zero penalty. Since then, the artist has jumped right back in his bag, and this time it doesn’t look as if he will be letting off the gas anytime soon. Keep an eye out for this artist as he is one of the hottest things to be emerging in the underground hiphop scene in Cleveland Ohio right now.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way. Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It has been far from a smooth road. As a white artist in the streets, the come up consisted of constantly feeling like you had to prove what you were about, and that at first glance or listen you were never fully given credit or taken seriously. Hate, hate and limited support make the come up for any artist in Cleveland extremely difficult. Cleveland is known to be one of the most hateful cities, we often refer to it as a “crabs in a bucket” type state. Nobody wants to see you do better than them.
Alright, so let’s switch gears a bit and talk business. What should we know about your work?
As mentioned before, OT Deezy is an independent hip hop artist out of Cleveland Ohio. Primarily known for his aggressive rap style that combines pain music with drill music with his own artistic twist. OT Deezy is one of the most dedicated and hardworking artists coming out of Cleveland right now, willing to go through any lengths possible to take his career to the next level. With a studio in the process of being opened, and new management for the 26 year old artist… Expect to see a lot of big things coming from this artist this summer.
Can you share something surprising about yourself?
I took a wrongfully accused life sentence to trial and won the case in trial.
