Brandon Robert Caskey (born August 28, 1992), better known by the mononym Caskey, is an American rapper from Winter Springs, Florida.[1] After years of independent releases, Caskey signed with Birdman's Cash Money Records, an imprint of Republic Records in August 2012 and made his first mainstream appearance on the label's compilation album, Rich Gang (2013).[2] He was notably the first and only Caucasian rapper to be signed to the label.

As a solo artist, he gained his furthest attention for his 2015 mixtape Black Sheep 2, which was met with critical praise. He parted ways with Cash Money in 2020 and released the collaborative album Yelawolf Black Sheep with Alabama rapper Yelawolf the following year. Since departing the label, he has released four independent studio albums.
