He moved to the DMV area when he was 7, which is where he currently resides.

During an interview with Dirty Glove Bastard in March 2021, the DMV-based rapper explained the origin of his stage name:

I was watching this movie The Omen and there was this white boy named Damian, and he was like the bad kid, and we was like “Oh yeah that’s me” and then we had “KA$HWAYZ” (Collective) so I just put them together and got KA$HDAMI.

Dami has been cosigned by names such as Cole Bennett, Pierre Bourne, Lil Tecca, ssgkobe, Cochise, Yung Bans and Taz Taylor among others.

Dami has been proving himself, with songs like January 2021’s “Reparations!” and March 2021’s “Look N The Mirror!” both gaining over 150 million total streams through Soundcloud, Spotify, and YouTube. Thanks to the success of these songs, KA$HDAMI would land a deal with Republic Records in May 2021. This would eventually lead up to KA$HDAMI releasing his debut major-label album, epiphany, on June 2, 2021, with features ranging from tana, yvngxchris, SSGKobe, and more.

On November 12, 2021, KA$HDAMI released the mixtape HYPERNOVA., which included his fist big cosign by Cleveland artist Trippie Redd. This tape further boosted his name and surpassed his fans expectations.

After continuing to release a slew of singles through streaming platforms, including some independent releases on his archive page, on September 16, 2022, KA$HDAMI released his sophomore album, WORLD DAMINATION. That same year, DAMI would release his EP, 18, on December 16, 2022.

The future looks up for Dami; with more projects on the way, it’s only a matter of time before the DMV artist gains recognition, especially after he was shown to be included on the 2021 Rolling Loud California lineup as well as Summer Smash hosted by Cole Bennett, the creator of Lyrical Lemonade.

Alongside with his musical career, KA$HDAMI also owns a multi-media brand named KA$HWAYZ, in which music is being released under there, as well as merchandise being sold occasionally. The brand launched way back in 2020.

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to KA$HDAMI's song, "Intermission," are an expression of the rapper's braggadocious and fearless persona. The opening lyrics, "I'm shy, oh my God," sets a humorous and ironical tone to the song, as the rest of the lyrics portray KA$HDAMI as a fearless and confident individual, unafraid to take on anyone or anything. The succeeding lyrics, "My bitch is a model, fuck a treesh / XD with the beam, it's on me," establish KA$HDAMI's confidence in his masculinity and his association with dangerous weaponry. He goes on to assert that he is willing to continue sending shots until his victims fall, and then compares his stick-carrying crew to video game characters that shoot down enemies. KA$HDAMI also expresses his distrust in unfaithful individuals, particularly those who switch sides and his mastery of making big moves, like a basketball team, but mentions that he never misses his targets.

In the next verse, he talks about his exploits with women, indicating that they do not mean much to him beyond sexual intercourse. He shares that he smokes weed to fuel his dreams and ambition, but his peers who sip on other substances are not genuine enough to support themselves. KA$HDAMI's frustration with individuals who try to pose as "savage" and "bout it" is visible throughout the song. He is quick to recognize and call out fake people, whom he believes are not capable of staying true to themselves. The song concludes with him once again boasting of the expensive fashion choices he has made through his music success.
