Starlito, whose real name is Jermaine Eric Shute, is a prodigious rapper and songwriter hailing from Nashville, Tennessee. Born on December 15, 1984, Starlito found an early passion in rap music that would ultimately carve his path as a prominent artist in the Southern hip-hop scene. He first entered the music industry under the moniker All $tar, but later rebranded himself as Starlito, which is a name he felt was more fitting to his unique style and matured outlook. Drawing from personal experiences and offering a blunt, autobiographical narrative, his music resonates with listeners who appreciate raw honesty blended with intellectual wordplay.

Starlito's career spans over a decade, showcasing a prolific output with an impressive catalogue of mixtapes and albums that have established him as a mainstay in underground rap. His recent projects, such as "LOVE DRUG," "Retire My Jersey," and "Diamonds in the Rough," continue to build upon his legacy with introspective lyrics and a gritty, authentic sound. Starlito has also demonstrated a strong sense of independence in the industry—often releasing music on his own label, Grind Hard—which has further solidified his reputation as an artist dedicated to his craft and loyal to his fanbase. Whether collaborating with other artists or exploring new themes in his work, such as on "Paternity Leave" or "At WAR With Myself Too," Starlito's narrative is a profound exploration of life's complexities through the lens of a seasoned rap artist.
