description: "Tione Jayden Merritt, known professionally as Lil Tjay, is an American rapper. He rose to prominence with his 2017 single \"Resume\", and signed with Columbia Records following the success of his 2018 single \"Brothers\", which received triple platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). His guest appearance on Polo G's 2019 single, \"Pop Out\" marked his first entry on the Billboard Hot 100—peaking at number 11—while his own single, \"F.N\", became his first to do so as a lead artist. Each preceded the release of his debut studio album, True 2 Myself (2019), which peaked at number five on the Billboard 200."
