Career

Beginnings and first successes (2017-2021)

Lit Killah started in the world of rap thanks to freestyle battles, one of his first battles was against Duki in 2016, Lit Killah won the battles thanks to the rhyme "Brisa", the battle was one of the most viewed on YouTube at that time year. [4] In that same year he competed in "El Quinto Escalón" but did not win in that year, in 2017, Lit Killah managed to win his first competition in "El Quinto Escalón". [3]

At the end of 2017, and coinciding with his birthday, he published his first single entitled "De$troy", a production faithful to the style demonstrated by Monzón in their previous encounters in freestyle battles. At just 18 years old, he signed a contract with Warner Music Argentina and starting 2018 he launched "Apaga el Celular", a song totally oriented to a melodic trap, whose official video clip already exceeds 100 million visits on YouTube. He subsequently released more singles, also featured as a guest artist on the song "Una Vez Más" of Numa, released on April 23. Jester released the following June had more than 20 million views in the first month since its premiere on YouTube. [5]
