Description
From viral internet star to pioneering cloud rapper and pop experimentalist, the Swedish rapper, producer and singer-songwriter Yung Lean has captured the sound and spirit of an era.
He first came to attention – and notoriety – in 2013 with his breakout track 'Ginseng Strip 2002', a viral smash that blew up on YouTube. While critics suspected the track to be a novelty hit, Yung Lean not only endured, he thrived. As an innovator in the world of SoundCloud rap, he released a string of acclaimed albums and mixtapes – including Unknown Memory (2014) and Warlord (2016), and Stranger (2017) – that defined a buzzy new wave of dissociative hip-hop.
Yung Lean expanded his dream-trap sound on 2020’s Starz, and leaned into pop experimentalism on 2022’s mixtape Stardust, which featured ambitious takes on rap, post-punk and electro, and featured high-profile collaborations with FKA twigs ('Bliss') and Skrillex ('SummerTime Blood'). Later that year, 'Ginseng Strip 2002' experienced a massive viral resurgence on TikTok, captivating a whole new generation of kids.
Don’t miss one of the most creative young artists in the game.
