Christopher Saint Victor (born November 16, 1995), better known by his stage name Flipp Dinero, is an American rapper, singer, and songwriter from Brooklyn, New York City. He is best known for his 2018 single "Leave Me Alone," which received quadruple platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and peaked at number 20 on the Billboard Hot 100. After both football wide-receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and NBA player Jordan Bell danced to and performed the song on Instagram, it quickly gained viral status.[3]
He was first discovered by fellow Brooklyn rapper Joey Badass, who led him to sign with Cinematic Music Group in May 2016,[4][5] and two years later, Victor signed onto a joint venture with DJ Khaled's We the Best Music Group, an imprint of Epic Records to re-issue "Leave Me Alone" as his debut single in August 2018.[6] The song served as the lead single for his debut studio album Love for Guala (2019), which was released in November of the following year to commercial failure.[7][8]
