About Tokyo Jetz
Shauntrell Pender, publicly known as Tokyo Jetz, is an American rapper and songwriter. Tokyo initially gained recognition when a Facebook freestyle to Yo Gotti’s hit record “DM” went viral with a million views in two days. Intent on pursuing a career as a rapper, she released her mixtape ”Flyy Sh*t Only” August 2016 which received rave reviews locally.

After the release of her mixtape, Tokyo gained the attention of legendary rapper and actor T.I., who came across one of her popular Instagram freestyle clips. The pair immediately began to record together, which led to her 2017 deal with T.I.’s growing label, Grand Hustle. In the summer of 2017, Tokyo, alongside of T.I., Young Dro, Trae Tha Truth and her label mates toured over 30 cities on the nationwide Hustle Gang Tour.

After the tour concluded, Tokyo released her second anticipated mixtape, “Viral”, in August 2017. This project was a gift to her fans, detailing her journey as an artist and her start in the rap game, virally. Since it’s release, “Viral” has accumulated over a million streams and continues to grow a presence worldwide. In November, Tokyo joined T.I., and the rest of the gang in NYC for a TRL performance of their hit record “Friends”, with Tokyo stealing the show. Now gearing up for her next project entitled “Baby Goat”, Tokyo released her title track off her upcoming EP, “The One”, set to release April 2018, which is receiving major traction. Tokyo is ready to show the world what the games been missing, through her prolific lyrics, undeniable style and relentless work ethic.

Caitlin Cook’s Musical Bathroom Odyssey Hits the UK

What do cowboy dicks, milk pistols, and public toilet walls have in common? They all find a strange kind of poetry in The Writing on the Stall, the wildly inventive musical comedy from US performer Caitlin Cook, landing in the UK this summer. After sold-out runs Off-Broadway, at Edinburgh Fringe, and in London, the New York Times Critic’s Pick returns for a short UK tour—playing Brighton’s Komedia (31 May & 1 June) and Soho Theatre, London (4–7 June).

Set entirely in a public bathroom, The Writing on the Stall is anything but private. In this whip-smart and wickedly funny one-woman musical, Cook dives into the scrawled messages and mysterious wisdom etched on cubicle walls and turns them into something bold, bizarre, and unexpectedly moving. The songs are catchy, the jokes are razor-sharp, and the show isn’t afraid to get its hands dirty—literally.

Armed with a guitar and a knack for digging gold out of the obscene, Cook crafts a genre-defying hour that’s part stand-up, part cabaret, and all catharsis. This is confessional comedy with clever hooks, pitch-perfect melodies, and enough surprises to keep your eyebrows permanently raised. Expect satire, sincerity, and some surreal props—rumour has it a pair of slingshotted knickers makes a cameo.

Caitlin Cook isn’t your average musical comic. She’s Oxford-educated, New York-hardened, and streaming in the tens of millions. She’s also collaborated with some of comedy’s finest, directed offbeat hits, and performs as one-half of the musical duo 2/3rds of a Threesome. With this new UK run, she’s not just touring a show—she’s building a movement that blurs the lines between comedy, theatre, and performance art.

If you missed her during her Edinburgh frenzy, this is your chance to catch the musical everyone’s been whispering about in pub toilets and shouting about in five-star reviews. You might come for the laughs, but you’ll stay for the songs that (fair warning) may live rent-free in your head for months.
