Joyner Lucas

Gary Maurice "Joyner" Lucas Jr. (born August 17, 1988) is an American rapper. Lucas first gained exposure online with his 2015 single "Ross Capicchioni". After three self-released projects, he signed with Atlantic Records to release his fourth mixtape and major label debut, 508-507-2209 (2017). That same year, his political single, "I'm Not Racist", quickly went viral, received gold certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), and was nominated Best Music Video at the 61st Grammy Awards. His remixes of then-popular SoundCloud rap songs, such as Lil Pump's "Gucci Gang", have also gained recognition. His 2018 single, "Stranger Things" (with Chris Brown), marked his first entry on the Billboard Hot 100, and that same year, he guest appeared on Eminem's single "Lucky You", which peaked within the chart's top ten. He parted ways with Atlantic to self-release his debut studio album, ADHD (2020), which peaked at number ten on the Billboard 200. His second and third album, Not Now, I'm Busy (2023) and ADHD 2 (2025), both moderately entered the chart and witnessed overall critical declines. Outside of music, Lucas co-founded the music technology platform Tully in 2015, with manager Dhruv Joshi.
