Tokyo Jetz is a rapper from Jacksonville, Florida who initially received attention over a series of freestyle videos recorded in her car. Her style is brash, aggressive, and dramatic, with lyrics focusing on the harsh aspects of street life, but she can also be playful as well as introspective. Since debuting in 2016, she has collaborated with rappers like <a href="spotify:artist:4OBJLual30L7gRl5UkeRcT">T.I.</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4PrinKSrmILmo0kERG0Ogn">Trina</a>, and <a href="spotify:artist:3u579Gdap91lMptBSdXTpf">Kash Doll</a>. Her third album, Cancel Culture, appeared in 2021.
Originally a poet, Tokyo Jetz (born Shauntrell Pender) began rapping while in high school. Gradually, her freestyles and mixtape appearances attracted attention from several big-name rappers, including <a href="spotify:artist:4OBJLual30L7gRl5UkeRcT">T.I.</a>, who signed her to <a href="spotify:search:label%3A%22Grand+Hustle%22">Grand Hustle</a> in 2016. Jetz moved to Atlanta in early 2017 and toured the United States with her labelmates. Following the upbeat, summery single "Sunshine Baby" and the reflective "My Story," her label debut, Viral, appeared in August 2017. Preceded by the EP 90's Baby, her sophomore full-length, Bonafide, arrived in 2018 and included the single "The One." Guest spots featured on the album included <a href="spotify:artist:4OBJLual30L7gRl5UkeRcT">T.I.</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:2iojnBLj0qIMiKPvVhLnsH">Trey Songz</a>, <a href="spotify:artist:4PrinKSrmILmo0kERG0Ogn">Trina</a>, and others. Several singles appeared throughout 2019, including "Six Flags" (featuring <a href="spotify:artist:3jksrX4oBklxR78ft8gv3j">Plies</a>) and "Amir." After the release of her 2020 EP Stimulus Package, Jetz was met with controversy when she posted a video in which she jokingly made light of George Floyd's death while play fighting with a friend. She responded to the backlash with her 2021 full-length Cancel Culture. ~ Paul Simpson, Rovi
