Yaeji

About

Yaeji, the Korean-American producer, DJ, and vocalist, has carved out a singular space in the global music scene, blending introspective lyricism with hypnotic beats that defy genre conventions. Her sound is a fluid amalgamation of house, hip-hop, and ambient electronica, often punctuated by her whispery, bilingual delivery in English and Korean. Drawing inspiration from her multicultural upbringing and the underground club scenes of New York City, Yaeji’s music feels both deeply personal and universally resonant. Emerging in 2017 with her breakout EPs *Yaeji* and *EP2*, she quickly became a cult favorite, with tracks like “Raingurl” and “Drink I’m Sippin On” becoming anthems for a generation of introspective partygoers. Her ability to balance vulnerability with dance-floor energy has earned her critical acclaim and a devoted fanbase. Yaeji’s cultural impact extends beyond music; she’s a visual artist and designer, often crafting her own album art and music videos, further cementing her as a multidisciplinary creative force. Collaborations with artists like Charli XCX and Robyn highlight her versatility, while her 2020 debut mixtape, *WHAT WE DREW*, showcased her growth as a storyteller and producer. Recently, Yaeji has been teasing new material, hinting at a more experimental direction. With her finger firmly on the pulse of contemporary culture, Yaeji continues to redefine what it means to be an artist in the digital age.
