ZAI

Zaire “Zai” Kelsey doesn’t have to try to go viral, the 18-year-old rapper from Florida just has a knack for making songs that resonate far and wide. Most recently, he co-wrote “Beautiful As You” by Thomas Rhett. His release, “Dump It Dummy (feat. 2rare),” went viral on TikTok shortly after it was first teased. He has spent years refining his sound, releasing more straightforward street-rap projects like his 2021 tape, “Hard 2 Tell.” He was also featured on a remix of Sadie Jean’s “WYD Now?” and Whethan’s “Fall Out Girl.”
