Early life

Yaweh was born in Orlando, Florida and supported himself as a drug dealer while working at a local Dunkin' Donuts until he was evicted by his mother for the criminal behavior. After arriving in Los Angeles he was discovered by Post Malone and Dre London who went on to sign him to their label London Entertainment.[4]

Career

Yaweh's single "Drugs and Pain" was released in November 2017 by London Entertainment as well as the singles "Wildlife", "Gemini" and "Goals", featuring Preme. All three tracks performed well, achieving millions of streams across Spotify, YouTube and SoundCloud.

Yaweh released his first album Heart Full of Rage on February 22, 2019 on all digital platforms.[5] He has also performed at festivals such as SXSW, Rolling Loud, and Made in America as well as touring Australia[6] and Europe.[7] He has since toured with Post Malone and Swae Lee on the Runaway Tour during fall 2019 and winter 2020, until the tour was halted near the end of the second leg due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and has confirmed a second album is due to be released sometime in the summer of 2020.[8][9]

On June 12, 2020, Yaweh released the lead single, "Tommy Lee", which features Post Malone, for his second album, Rager Boy (stylized RAGERBØY). The track was released on all digital platforms and was followed soon after with an accompanying music video.[10] It became Yaweh's first career Hot 100 entry, debuting at number 65.[11]
