Early Life

Kountry Wayne was born Dewayne Colley on December 9, 1987, in Millen, Georgia. He grew up in Millen, a rural country town, in a family that did not have much money. At the age of 11, his mother died. By the time Wayne graduated from high school, he was already a father. He was in need of money and got involved with the street culture in Millen, which entailed becoming a drug dealer. This led to frequent run-ins with the police and eventually being sent to jail for a number of years on a felony charge. Once he got out of jail, he became determined to make something of his life. Because he had a felony charge on his record, it was challenging for him to find legitimate, well-paid work. Wayne decided he wanted to pursue a career in entertainment and took a trip to Atlanta to visit some comedy clubs and observe other comedians and entertainers. He also read a number of books to get ideas on how to become successful and was able to secure a bank loan from a sympathetic bank officer, despite having bad credit, to help launch his career. Wayne has cited comedians likeRedd FoxxandRichard Pryoras his early comedy influences.

Career

In 2014, Wayne took note of the various comedians in Atlanta who were experiencing success by posting short videos on the now-defunct app Vine. He got on the app in October 2014 and started posting his own skits. He was particularly inspired by comedians likeDC Young Fly, Philip Hudson,King Bach, andEmmanuel Hudson. He specifically focused on the niche area of telling stories in his videos, as there were very few other comedians making content in this area.

From that point onward, Wayne began building a following of fans. He eventually became so popular that he started attracting the attention of more major stars, likeNick Cannon. Wayne made his television debut in September 2018 on MTV's battle rap improv television series "Wild 'N Out," a show created and hosted by Cannon. The same year, he released a comedy album called "Help Is On The Way," which featured primarily clean comedy. He toured with the material on the album in a national theater tour called "Help Is On The Way," produced by Live Nation.
