Meet Allen Pullen II of Atlanta

Today we’d like to introduce you to Allen Pullen II.

Hi Allen , we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
So I began writing music very young but was raised by my grandparents. The old school methods and teachings they instilled In me taught me to just do, don’t wait, you make it happen.
Growing up on the west side of Atlanta GA My grandfather cooked almost twice everyday. Yes we went out to eat, but it was mainly cooking. So that’s been a part of me since a child.
I started my journey with music, making music writing music, I had a true love for poetry and music Still do to this day.

Fresh outta high school had an annuity payout from my mother’s death that made me veer away from college after 6 months of attempting, I was still living a party lifestyle in a mansion i rented with 3 of my high school acquaintances. Since I had no guidance the first part of funds went quick, although I had built a report it still was no funds left. Went straight to hustling with those 3 acquaintances and ended up in jail.
Who could I call to get me out my auntie who took me straight back to grandad.

This time I knew I still had monies leftover, and technically knew how to get it so I did that. This time around I tried to stay but my grandfather being very strict , vindictive, and his way or the highway type parent, his house was like a mental prison I had to get out of and did this time around without looking back.
Fast forward to 2025 I was told by a mentor to take a break from music or you gonna crash out from not being where you want to be. I listened to him and starting my focus on pizzas.

About 4 years ago I began working a pizza job at SCAD college of Arts and design. While working at Johnny’s pizza on Southside as well.
Stayed there almost a year, but the pay didn’t increase, although my hard word did. Before leaving I started making videos, of me making dough, portioning dough , and cooling methods for dough.

This started a version of (How to ) videos where I began teaching the world about how to knead, how to portion, how to form your dough. The whole 9.

Towards the end of my time at SCAD I started to see different items I could have at home and the idea hit. I can do this from da crib. So the journey began at every job since then, making new videos about pizza.

I purchased dough trays, pizza pans, tested a few pizza ovens, and it was Go time Dough time from there.

At first I was bringing extra leftover slices home even before these jobs to feed the homeless, and just have extra food on hand. That shifted to me asking one job to buy dough from them so I can make pizzas at home .

2 months later I bought a 6qt dough machine and all the items needed.
The Dough making and pizza making process began at home. And it was Finally Pizza Time.

The name of the company I stuck with is WeStSiDe DelightZ 🍕
Where Err bite is Just Rite 🍕
Hit my line, and yo stomach will be fine!
I’m da PizzaMan Wit Da PizzaPlan ‼️ I Slang great Dough Wit my Pizza Hands 🍕🍕

I’m sure it wasn’t obstacle-free, but would you say the journey has been fairly smooth so far?
Remaining patient when you know your worth and you know what you’re trying to do as a businessman all around the board.

At times not wanting to ask for help cuz folks intentions are not similar to yours.
Other times knowing folks ain’t even on your wavelength to be able to do what you’re doing.

Not having funds to execute moves that others even want me to execute such as Interviews, or club appearances.

Can you tell our readers more about what you do and what you think sets you apart from others?
I’ma Pizza chef from the Westside of Atlanta GA. Owner of Westside DelightZ ‼️
Home based Pizza company where I take pick up to go orders and delivery orders via phone, FB, Instagram , and email.
I make my own dough cook the pizzas and deliver them within the city limits of the Westside and downtown.
The farthest I’ve delivered was from the Westside to sylvan Rd Cleveland avenue.

Doing all this on a 28 mph scooter is a lot but it was worth it.

I’m most known for my musical journey since high school trying to provide a different sound to the people.
Reality rap where the music speaks real life situations. And teaches people while having fun.

I’m most proud of my journey to accept stopping music for a while and finding a true new talent to love and be happy with.

What sets me apart from others is my drive to always find something to new to do whenever I take a loss.

If you had to, what characteristic of yours would you give the most credit to?
The quality or characteristic, I feel is most important to my success is patience.
See when you come into a large sum of money early it changes a lot of things you might not never knew it would.

The one thing my grandad always told me was it ain’t gone always be there and them friends gone let ya down.
I didn’t believe him until it All Happened.

Which taught me Our plan is not God’s plan. So we have to listen to our teachers
Whole living life and learning as well.

Im still working on patience to this day . But it’s a process just like life.
