Junius Donald Rogers (born September 20, 1999) was born in Islip, New York, United States. He is a prominent figure in the American rap scene. As a rapper, singer, and songwriter, he has made a name for himself as a member of the hip hop group City Morgue, known for their hard-hitting trap metal sound. He is professionally known as ZillaKami.
ZillaKami has been recognized by publications such as HotNewHipHop for his pioneering work in the trap metal genre. Aside from his music career, ZillaKami is also the CEO of Dog Years Skate Club, a skate apparel and equipment brand that has garnered a significant following. He is known for his unique fashion sense and bold aesthetic choices, which have earned him a reputation as a trendsetter in the fashion industry.
ZillaKami's rise to fame was propelled in part by his association with rapper 6ix9ine. He worked as a songwriter for 6ix9ine before the pair collaborated on several tracks, including "Yokai" and "Hellsing Station". However, their partnership was short-lived, as the two had a falling out in August 2017. This was due in part to a controversial social media post by ZillaKami, in which he shared a photo of 6ix9ine engaged in a sexual act with a girl he claimed was underage. This brought to light 6ix9ine's prior guilty plea to using a child in a sexual performance, which caused significant controversy in the music industry.
Despite the fallout with 6ix9ine, ZillaKami has continued to make a name for himself in the rap scene. He has released several successful solo projects and continues to tour and perform with City Morgue. ZillaKami's unique sound and style have earned him a loyal fanbase, and he is widely regarded as one of the most exciting and innovative artists in the rap industry today.
