Early life

Calmatic was born Charles Kidd II on September 25, 1987. He was raised in South Central Los Angeles.

Career

Calmatic gained widespread fame in 2019 for directing the video for "Old Town Road" by Lil Nas X featuring Billy Ray Cyrus, which won the 2019 MTV Video Music Award for Best Direction and the 2020 Grammy Award for Best Music Video. He has also worked with Kendrick Lamar, Childish Gambino, Anderson .Paak, Pharrell Williams, and Jay-Z, among others.

He directed the 2023 remake of the 1990 film House Party, developed by LeBron James, which was his feature length debut.[6] In 2023, he directed a reboot of the 1992 sports comedy film White Men Can't Jump for 20th Century Studios.[7] The film, starring Sinqua Walls and rapper Jack Harlow in his acting debut, was released on May 19, 2023.
