Early life

Stith was born and raised in New Jersey, and raised in a musical family. He began playing the drums at 3 years old, and also learned the piano and guitar. His family encouraged his musical abilities, with his mother helping him learn to sing after overhearing him singing along to a song on a DVD of a Tyler Perry play.[3] He learned how to utilize production software and started pursuing a musical career when he was a teenager. Stith formed the group SJ3 in high school, which attracted the interest of music executive Jas Prince, the driving force behind Drake's early career, when he was in his teens.[3] With Prince's support, Stith began a solo career.[1]

On July 11, 2017, Stith released his debut album "Can We Talk" while he was co-signed by Drake.[4] In 2022, Stith performed on stage at SXSW, Rolling Stone and Meta Creator House.[5][6]

On 8 September 2023, Stith released an extended play under RCA Records titled P.O.V.[7][8] Stith has worked with notable acts including 2 Chainz, Ty Dolla Sign, H.E.R., Quavo, Swae Lee, Bryson Tiller and more.[9][10] His single "Girls Like You" peaked at No. 6 on Billboard R&B Charts.[11][12]
