In the ever-shifting landscape of hip-hop, one name stands out with an eclectic mix of conscious, playful, influential, and aggressive styles—They Call Me P.Y.T. Hailing from Carson, California, P.Y.T has crafted an impressive journey that has made waves far beyond his hometown. With her latest single, "GUAP," she continues to solidify her imprint on the music scene, promising a vibrant soundscape that captures her unique essence.
The roots of They Call Me P.Y.T's music story trace back to the streets of Carson, where she began writing poetry and short stories at just 11 years old. Her transition into lyricism was serendipitous. "There were girls in my grade who wanted to form an R&B group and asked me to write songs for them," she recalls. Although the group didn’t last, P.Y.T’s passion for music endured.
Compelled by a love for performance thanks to a nudge from her mom during an impromptu talent show at 13, P.Y.T's stage presence quickly became second nature. "Since then, I’ve performed across various cities, from Austin, Texas, to Washington D.C., and back home in California. These experiences have only sharpened my musical edge," she shares.
Every artist has their muses, and for P.Y.T, influences came early and powerfully. Bow Wow's success as a young rapper captivated a teenage P.Y.T, showing her that age was no barrier to skill or success. Tupac Shakur, revered by P.Y.T's late brother Jason, inspired her to speak her truth unabashedly. Meanwhile, the legendary Michael Jackson ignited a curiosity beyond artistry—into the business dynamics of music.
P.Y.T's discography is as diverse as it is personal. Spanning over two decades, she has released seven projects that catalog her growth and explorations. Her latest single, "GUAP," produced by DJ Robby Dinero and featuring Wordie P, is a testament to her evolving sound and self-reflection. "The song GUAP is simply saying I’m living in my success. I’m detailing how I used to be and highlighting how my life is now." This track is available on Spotify, reflecting her journey from a passionate lyricist to a recognized name in hip-hop.
Her previous mixtapes and albums like "Ambitionz AzA Grinder," "IOI (I’m On It)," and "Pearl Hart" explore themes of ambition, loss, and collaboration with notable names like JHawk Productions.
Beyond the stage and recording studio, P.Y.T has carved a niche within television and film through music placements. Starting with her first placement on Issa Rae’s acclaimed "Insecure" Season 3 on HBO, her music continued to resonate across shows like "All American" and "Love & Hip Hop ATL." With over 171 episodes featuring her soundtracks, the upcoming year promises more screen presence.
Music isn't the only way P.Y.T connects with her audience. She plans to give back through merchandise giveaways, challenging fans to stay engaged in inventive ways. As she continues pushing boundaries, her reach on platforms like SoundCloud, YouTube, Apple Music, and Spotify makes her work accessible to global audiences.
