Hailing from the Bronx, American rapper and ‘hip-hop heartthrob’ Lil Tjay is one of the hottest acts in the industry right now. Since he began releasing music on SoundCloud in 2017, he’s amassed over 230 million plays on the website, and over 100 million views on YouTube with tracks like ‘Ruthless,’ ‘Move Right,’ ‘Leaked,’ ‘No Label,’ ‘Resume,’ ‘None Of Your Love,’ ‘Pop Out,’ ‘Goat,’ and ‘Brothers.’

Lil Tjay has collaborated with a host of contemporary hip-hop’s biggest names: French Montana, Blueface, Polo G, Tory Lanez, and YNW Melly. With only one EP and 10 singles out, Lil Tjay remains one of the highest-played artists on SoundCloud, and his influence is growing exponentially. He was recently signed to Columbia Records, which has represented superstar acts like Beyoncé, Adele, 50 Cent, Pharrell Williams, George Ezra and Tyler the Creator.

Inspired by artists like Usher and Michael Jackson, the rapper has set himself apart with a ‘melodic rap’ sound used to colour incisive and autobiographical accounts of his experiences in the Bronx. Originally crafting his songs on his phone and computer, in 2018, he won first place in a Coast 2 Coast LIVE NYC competition which gained him the attention of a major label, and the rest is history. Fans can catch Lil Tjay on tour with fellow rapper Lil Mosey all throughout 2019: be on the lookout for his upcoming projects, which he provides updates on through his active Instagram and Twitter accounts.
