Kidd Kenn

Kidd Kenn is a groundbreaking Chicago-born rapper and entertainer whose sharp lyricism, fearless self-expression, and commanding personality have helped expand the possibilities for LGBTQ+ artists in hip-hop. Emerging from Chicago’s South Side, she first captured attention through viral freestyles before signing with Island Records at just 16—a major milestone in a career built on showing up unapologetically.

Kenn’s history-making appearance in the 2021 BET Hip Hop Awards Cypher brought her talent and visibility to a national stage. With projects including Childish, Child’s Play, Problem Child, and Grown, collaborations with artists such as Rico Nasty, cupcakKe, and Baby Tate, and a Lollapalooza debut in 2023, she has built a résumé that reaches beyond viral moments. Her impact lies in both her music and her willingness to make space for artists and fans who haven’t always seen themselves represented in mainstream rap.

Now signed to Gotti TV as a recording artist and for management, Kidd Kenn is bringing her talent, audience, and creative energy into the network’s next chapter. Through appearances across Gotti TV’s television shows, music collaborations, and promotional initiatives, she helps expand the network’s reach while connecting its music and entertainment worlds.

With several upcoming projects in development and new releases on the way, Kidd Kenn continues to build on her legacy of breaking barriers, embracing individuality, and giving the culture something unmistakably her own.
