SWAE LEE

Khalif Malik Ibn Shaman Brown, born June 7, 1993, is an American rapper and singer from Inglewood, California. He is known for his wide-ranged, reverb-heavy vocals and genre-blending style. Lee is one half of the Mississippi-based hip-hop duo Rae Sremmurd, which he formed in 2010 with his older brother Slim Jxmmi. Rae Sremmurd signed with Mike Will Made's EarDrummer Records, an imprint of Interscope Records, in 2013. The duo's first three studio albums—SremmLife (2015), SremmLife 2 (2016), and SR3MM (2018)—debuted within the top ten of the Billboard 200. Their notable songs include "No Flex Zone," "No Type," and "Black Beatles," the latter of which topped the Billboard Hot 100. As a solo artist, Lee appeared as a guest on French Montana's 2017 single "Unforgettable," which reached the top ten of the Billboard Hot 100 and received diamond certification from the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). He also received a Grammy Award nomination for co-writing Beyoncé's single "Formation" in 2017. In 2018, Lee released his debut solo studio album, Swaecation, as part of Rae Sremmurd's third album, SR3MM, a triple album.
