CjxGotti Is Here To Make Change In The Music Industry

The Indiana raised Artist; Known as CjxGotti was born and raised in Hammond, Indiana where he calls home amongst many surrounding cities which plays a major part in his upbringing into adulthood. The Hometown of Popstar Icon Michael Jackson; Gary, Indiana being one of those cities.

Corey Jhonathon Hill born on April 19, 1997 is the fourth born amongst nine siblings. Apart from the fact that he is a twin, entertainment was never hard to find with such a huge family. His musical journey began young, introduced to the “peace of song” by his beloved Mothers (Lillie Ann Hill) old-school taste and wide variety of music. However, he was highly influenced by his oldest sisters; (Jackilyn Hill) touch in what he calls “culture mentoring by bond.”

(Fun fact: CjxGotti & His twin sister; Cassandra Hill was born on Jacklyn’s 7^th Birthday making the three share the same birthday)

His exposure to many genres such as Soul, Funk, R&B, Pop, HipHop and even overlooked genres like gospel and soft rock helped solidify his footprints in culture exposure through music that would later account to CjxGotti’s adaption and versatility in his work.

When asked about celebrity Icon influences in the industry, Gotti states “There’s too many, I wouldn’t even want to blow my mental trying to decide and I’m talking about greats by decade! We’d be here all-day dawg.”

CjxGotti is considered a Hip-hop/R&B artist but creates his own lane by adding a bit of everything to his plate. Starting his music career with his Debut song “Endless Pain” released on September 20^th,2020, CjxGotti expresses lost and gives fans an exclusive listen on what molded him emotionally.

“What would I say to the people listening? Lol I got you, I would want everyone that’s listening now to know that I’m very versatile, I don’t stay in one lane, expect more from me but most importantly expect a vibe every time. Walk with me.” (- CjxGotti )

In an interview late this year (Nov 10^th, 2020) on an upcoming podcast show “The cloud chronicles” CjxGotti elaborates his statement and goes on to say “That X in my name is really meant to create space but think of it as a treasure hunt, that X marks the spot. Whatever you want, whatever you’re looking for is right here!”.

On November 11^th 2020, CjxGotti released his second single “IDGAF”. Gotti cleverly uses the motto “A perfect day to not give a fuck” behind advertising the track, he explains; “Look, sometimes it’s okay to just wake up and not give a fuck, it’s good for your health, reflect and release, never dwell and that’s what I did on this project. I took myself somewhere else.”

Life for the new hip-hop artist has not been easy, exposed to trials and tribulations in life, betrayal, death, lost love and heartbreak CjxGotti intends to let his fans in a peek at a time.

“Music is therapeutic, it has been for me just listening to it. Now I’m making music and it’s like I want to be healing to someone, I want to be someone’s go to for any vibe they’re looking for. I know someone out there got the same story as me, I just hope everyone that’s listening continue to support me on this journey.”

C’batch delivers love, reflections and new beginning through “Next Time (I Won’t Be Falling)” (EP)

C’batch’s latest EP, “Next Time (I Won’t Be Falling),“ is a soulful exploration of the never-ending cycle that is love. It’s a release that combines intimacy with looking ahead, blending emotion with cinematic ambition. The EP embraces the ambiguity that follows, instead of providing a clean resolution to heartbreak.

This EP is a sneak peek of C’batch’s upcoming album, “The Vault 4 – Cinematic,” set for release on July 10, 2026, that will go deeper into the emotional universe. The project begins with “Next Time (I Won’t Be Falling),” a nicely balanced, measured balance of strength and openness that captures the emotional tension between self-protection and hope for another chance. “Next Time (I Won’t Be Falling) (2)” gives the same emotional struggle from a more reflective perspective, letting the feelings settle with more maturity and quiet conviction.

“Next Time (I Won’t Be Falling)1a“ tells a different story, with similar emotions reinterpreted with musical shifts, adding to the experience but still resonating with the core message of the EP. The release is completed with the cinematic version of “Next Time (I Won’t Be Falling) Cinematic Version 2,“ a sweeping song with cinematic textures that turns the title track into an immersive sound and offers a glimpse of the creative direction behind “The Vault 4 – Cinematic.“

Another point of connection in C’batch’s expanding catalog, “Next Time (I Won’t Be Falling),“ also supplies the creative inspiration for the two companion versions of “Fluorescent Buzz (You Got Me Falling)“ on the EP of the same name. These releases represent an artist consciously creating a connected musical universe that is growing in emotional depth, storytelling, and cinematic production.

Album Review

C’batch delivers a soulful dancefloor experience with “The Vault 3 – Club / Dance / R&B-Soul / Funk / Pop / Techno / Etc.”

C’batch is back with “The Vault 3 – Club/Dance/R&B-Soul/Funk/Pop/Techno/Etc.,” a 20-track album of unreleased archival recordings, remixed into one seamless late-night journey. The project builds a world where dancefloor rhythm meets intimate introspection, for global dance culture and late-night listening.

The album opens with raw, emotional loss of love and personal clarity in tracks such as “Breaking My Heart” and “Found What’s Right for Me.” “The Club Song” and “Too Hot to Handle” up the dancefloor ante with thick club beats and game tension. “Mystique of Love (What’s Behind Your Smile)” has an air of mystery about it and is delivered with smooth R&B vibes, while “I Just Wanna Love You Now” is all about passion and urgency.

The mid-section tracks extend the emotional palette of the record. The smooth pop and soul elements of “I Am the Right Guy” promise confident self-confidence, and the next track, “On to You,” plays on attraction and groove. “Love Give Me a Sign (Velvet Switchblade) 2” mixes openness with gritty funk textures, while “No More Lonely Nights” is introspective ambient soul. “Hit Me with Your Love” has a lot more rhythm and a lot more dance energy. “Let Me School You (Vocal Version)” is a fun, funky education, and “Turn It up-2” adds to the club vibe with techno-infused layers.

The final section of “The Vault 3 – Club/Dance/R&B-Soul/Funk/Pop/Techno/Etc.” wraps everything up with warmth, groove, and emotional closure in the remaining songs. The album’s energy is carried by “Send U My Love,” “A Funk Groove,” and “Hold on Now,” the album’s lead single, balanced with romance and dance-driven momentum. Closing the album is “Midnight Love Serenade (Honeyed Girl),” bringing late-night softness and texture. C’batch describes the project as electronic adrenaline meets deep soul groove, a late-night global dance culture, and an immersive listening experience for the modern club listener around the world today.
