Background & Early Start: Cash Gotti hails from the Fields Corner area of Dorchester, Boston (MA) – one of the more challenging neighborhoods in the city. He often channels the struggles of his upbringing into his music. Early on, he turned to hip-hop as a creative outlet, inspired by street rap culture and influenced by artists like Future, A Boogie wit da Hoodie, and Meek Mill. His stage name “Cash Gotti” became known locally as he built a grassroots fanbase in Boston.
Mixtapes and Street Buzz: Prior to his string of singles, Cash Gotti released mixtapes that helped establish his name. Notably, his mixtape “Sen Mi Gotto” garnered more than 20,000 streams, indicating an early underground following. He also gained exposure by appearing on the popular YouTube web series “Respect Life” with his song “Ace,” which accumulated over 100,000 plays on SoundCloud and about 60,000 views on YouTube – a significant milestone for an independent artist at the time. These early successes and his hustle in the local scene set the foundation for bigger moves.
Breakout Single: In late 2019, Cash Gotti released “Lips Closed” featuring Roddy Ricch, which became his breakout single. The track “put this upcoming artist on the map,” as The Hype Magazine noted, leading to over 1.5 million streams combined from that song and other collaborations. Teaming up with Roddy Ricch (a Grammy-winning artist) gave Cash Gotti mainstream visibility and proved he could hold his own alongside notable names. “Lips Closed” created industry opportunities for Gotti and is often highlighted as a career-defining track. It received coverage on platforms like HipHopDX and was widely shared on social media due to Roddy Ricch’s involvement. This song effectively introduced Cash Gotti to a national audience. Media Coverage & Interviews: Cash Gotti’s compelling backstory and music have been covered in various media outlets. In February 2020, The Hype Magazine profiled him in an interview titled “Keeping it 100 with Cash Gotti,” discussing his life and music. He also was featured in Voyage ATL (Jan 2021) where he talked about his creative ventures and adapting during the pandemic (even creating a coloring book called “I Survived” as a side project). Earlier, in March 2019, I Am Hip-Hop Magazine spotlighted his single “Bird Bath” and introduced him as a Boston native pushing through adversity to make a change through music. These articles often praise his authenticity and entrepreneurial spirit, painting the picture of an artist who is both street-smart and innovative in marketing himself.
