WHO IS LIL' DUDE? Lil' Dude, Born Micah Brown, in Detroit, Michigan, lives, breathes and exudes all of the mechanics for a successful career in the entertainment industry; one with creative direction and longevity. Beginning his love affair with Hip-Hop, at the mere age of four, by six years old Lil' Dude was leaving audiences amazed with his high energy performances throughout his hometown of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. Lil' Dude and his family then moved to Atlanta, GA where he began working as a Hip-Hop and spoken word artist, amidst a thriving acting, voice over and modeling career. Lil' Dude has performed for audiences of over 20,000, including Summer Fest where he performed alongside Grammy winning group Arrested Development and has opened for the renowned R&B diva, Patti LaBelle, and Grammy Award winning soul artist, John Legend.
