Khalick Antonio Caldwell[1] (born January 1, 1996), better known as Stunna 4 Vegas (currently stylized as $tunna 4 Vegas), is an American rapper from Salisbury, North Carolina. He is best known for his 2020 single "Go Stupid" (with Polo G and NLE Choppa featuring Mike Will Made It), which received triple platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Two years prior, he signed with fellow North Carolina–based rapper DaBaby's Billion Dollar Baby Entertainment, an imprint of Interscope Records to release his debut album, Big 4x (2019) and its follow-up, Rich Youngin (2020). Both albums performed moderately on the Billboard 200—the latter peaked at number 29 on the chart. His third and fourth albums, Welcome to 4 Vegas (2020) and Rae Rae's Son (2022), both failed to chart.
Despite having the city as part of his stage name, Caldwell claims no personal connection to Las Vegas; the "4" was adapted from his hometown area code.[3]
