CJ, known by his stage name Pay$kii, is making waves in the world of Hip Hop drill music, and the best part is, he’s just getting started. Hailing from the small town of San Augustine, Texas, Pay$kii has been rapping for two years, and in that short time, he’s already carving out a lane for himself in the industry. His music, raw and authentic, connects with listeners on a level that’s all too real—no frills, just the grind and passion of someone determined to make their mark.
Pay$kii’s journey into music began under a different alias, Apple Paydro, and his debut track, “Apple Pay,” was his first step into the game. Though his early work was under a different name, it’s clear that Pay$kii is forging a path that’s all his own now. He cites his biggest inspiration as the people who believe in him—his family, his supporters, and anyone who sees the potential in his hustle. While the industry hasn’t yet seen Pay$kii collaborate with any big names, he has big aspirations, with dreams of working with icons like Michael Jackson. And don’t be surprised if you catch him in the studio with some big stars soon—he’s got a lot of untapped potential, and it’s clear he’s destined for greatness.
When asked about his goals, Pay$kii doesn’t hold back. He’s aiming for a record deal, and in the next five years, he sees himself making headlines. His latest release, “MVP”, is already out on all platforms, and it’s a track that shows off his lyrical skills and energy, with a drill beat that packs a punch. For Pay$kii, the work is just beginning, as he’s already teasing new releases and visuals set for the end of the month and into February.
Though Pay$kii hasn’t performed for a large crowd yet, he has big dreams for the stage. Miami is on his list as a place he’d love to perform, and while he’s not sure who he would tour with yet, it’s clear he’s ready for the spotlight. His support system—especially his brother Lehani and his sisters—keeps him grounded as he pushes forward.
No matter where the future takes him, Pay$kii is focused on the grind, and his ambition is undeniable. He’s currently working on visuals for some upcoming tracks, and the anticipation for what’s next is already building. Stay tuned to his journey, because Pay$kii is one artist you’ll want to keep your eye on.
