Chy Cartier is a rapper from North London who works independently. She broke through in late 2023 with “BOSSED UP” and has been co-signed by Central Cee, Skepta and Novelist.

Background

END. reported in May 2026 that she has rapped since around the age of seven and built her audience without industry support or guest features. Her music pairs darker tones and heavy bass with nods to late-1990s and early-2000s sounds, and her signature ad-lib is “BAP”. She appeared in a Nike campaign for the Air Max Dn8 and has said she wants to explore dancehall and rock.
