Lit Killah started in the world of rap thanks to freestyle battles, one of his first battles was against Duki in 2016, Lit Killah won the battles thanks to the rhyme "Brisa", the battle was one of the most viewed on YouTube at that time year.[4] In that same year he competed in "El Quinto Escalón" but did not win in that year, in 2017, Lit Killah managed to win his first competition in "El Quinto Escalón".[3]
At the end of 2017, and coinciding with his birthday, he published his first single entitled "De$troy", a production faithful to the style demonstrated by Monzón in their previous encounters in freestyle battles.
