Yung Gravy

Inspired by everyone from OutKast, Nate Dogg, Curren$y, and Action Bronson to Patrice Rushen and The Blackbyrds, Yung Gravy ditched class and took to SoundCloud to begin releasing music in 2016. The first song he uploaded, "Karen," quickly garnished new fans and stirred a palpable buzz online. His first EP, Mr. Clean, went viral on the strength of "Continental Breakfast"—which cracked the 1-million mark on Soundcloud. Sandwiching a sample of The Chordettes' "Mr. Sandman" between raunchy and raw rhymes, the title track "Mr. Clean" soundtracked countless fan videos and ignited 9.6 million Soundcloud plays in under a year. Throughout 2017, he prolifically unleashed a string of nonstop music, including Thanksgiving's Eve, Yung Gravity EP, and Baby Gravy EP. Soon, he reached #1 on Indify and had labels knocking at his door.
