Rich Brian

Indonesian musician Rich Brian has evolved from an Internet sensation to a serious artist, utilizing his distinctive deep voice to become an international star and key figure for representation in pop and rap. He first captured mainstream attention in 2016 with the viral hit "Dat $tick." The track caught international eyes and ears after a reaction video was released to promote the song; it featured American rappers like Ghostface Killah, 21 Savage, Flatbush Zombies, and Desiigner, who reacted with mostly positive praise. Ironically wearing a pink polo and a fanny pack, Brian let his deep voice and cadence speak for itself, challenging preconceived notions about how Asian rappers could sound. After signing with 88Rising, he released two full-length albums -- 2018's Amen and 2019's The Sailor -- with both making strong Top 50 entries on the U.S. charts. Brian kicked off the next decade with an EP, 1999, followed in 2021 by the smash hit collaboration with bbno$, "Edamame." In 2025, he expanded his genre scope and songwriting abilities with Where Is My Head? Growing up in Indonesia, the artist born Brian Imanuel got his start with social media in 2010 when he was 11 years old. At first, he posted dark comedy videos that often lampooned American culture, which he consumed via online videos. He taught himself English by watching such clips and by listening to rappers like Childish Gambino, 2 Chainz, Macklemore, and Tyler, The Creator. In 2015, Imanuel began releasing satirical songs as Rich Chigga. The first, "Living the Dream," introduced his brand as a button-pushing, controversy-courting, yet ironic presence. He produced culturally-appropriated content about gang violence, drinking, and drugs -- though he didn't partake in any of it -- while also voicing prominent problems concerning his home country, like government corruption and street violence. After the success of "Dat $tick," he released "Who That Be" and a "Dat $tick" remix, which featured Pouya and Ghostface Killah on guest verses. Various incendiary singles were released in a flurry in 2017, including "Back at It," "Chaos," "Glow Like Dat," and "Gospel," the latter of which featured Keith Ape and XXXTENTACION and reached the Top Ten of Billboard's R&B charts. At the start of 2018, the rapper shed the controversial Rich Chigga moniker and began performing as Rich Brian. His debut full-length, Amen, landed in January on the 88rising label. Charting in the Top 20 of the Billboard 200, the album also featured guests Joji ("Introvert") and Migos' Offset ("Attention"). The following year, he released the single "Yellow," which debuted Brian's rich singing voice. The song landed on his official sophomore effort, The Sailor. Released in July 2019, the album featured appearances by Bekon, RZA, and labelmate Joji, debuting just outside the Top 50 on the Billboard 200. In April of 2020, he returned with new single "BALI," featuring a guest cameo from Guapdad 4000. After rounding out the year with the 1999 EP, Brian issued the single "Sydney" in early 2021. Two more songs, "California" featuring Warren Hue and the solo track "New Tooth," appeared later in the year. The latter cut, along with the Warren Hue-assisted hit "Getcha Mans," appeared on his 2022 EP, Brightside. However, it was a 2021 track with bbno$ that would catapult Brian onto mainstream radio that same year. "Edamame," from bbno$'s Eat Ya Veggies, was released in July 2021, slowly gaining traction to the point that it hit the Top 40 across North America, Europe, and Australiasia. By 2022, the song was certified multi-platinum.After an extended gap between full-lengths, Brian returned with 2025's Where Is My Head? The set incorporated new genres for the artist, including alt-pop and grunge, and showcased his new synth and keyboard playing, as well as his developing songcraft.
