Semaja Zair Render[1] (born August 6, 1999), known professionally as Lil Gotit, is an American rapper and singer.

Early life

[edit]

Semaja Zair Render was born in Atlanta, Georgia, the youngest of seven children. Render was initially raised on Southeast Atlanta's Conley Road. After dropping out of high school during his freshman year, Render moved to Cleveland Avenue in Southwest Atlanta. Like his late brother and fellow rapper Lil Keed, who was one year older, Gotit did not start taking rap seriously until his friend Rudy was killed a few days before the release of the group compilation mixtape Young Slime Season in 2016.[2]

Gotit then began releasing songs with his brother Lil Keed, whom he collaborated with on the songs: "Trap Bunkin", "Dirty Dancer" and "All Season".[3] Described as one of Atlanta's next rising rap stars, his music was starting to be played in clubs.[3] The name Lil Gotit was derived from Maja Gotit, a nickname inspired by him "having everything". He has cited Young Thug as his mentor.[4]
