Percee P (born John Percy Simon) is a hip hop artist from the Patterson Projects in The Bronx, New York City, United States. Percee P has been writing and performing since 1979, yet his debut album Perseverance was not released until September 18, 2007, produced entirely by Madlib.

He was known in the underground for selling his mixtapes himself in front of the Fat Beats store in New York, a practice he continues today by selling his Stones Throw album and his other mixtapes at his shows.^[1]

A rare video exists showing Percee P trading freestyle verses with Fat Joe and Eminem.^[2]
