Who is Lil Tay?
Lil Tay first gained notoriety online in 2018, when she claimed to be nine years old and referred to herself as the “youngest flexer of the century” by posting videos boasting about her supposed fortune.
One previous video, for example, showed her claiming to own a red Mercedes Benz, even though her feet were too short to reach the accelerators. “This s**t cost me 200,000. I’m only 9 years old. I ain’t got no license, but I still drive this sports car b**ch. Your favorite rapper ain’t doing it like Lil Tay,” she wrote.
