Swae Lee

About

Swae Lee (born Khalif Malik Ibn Shaman Brown, June 7, 1993) is an American rapper and singer from Inglewood, California, raised in Tupelo, Mississippi. He rose to fame as one half of the hip-hop duo Rae Sremmurd alongside his brother Slim Jxmmi, and his falsetto-driven melodic style set him apart from his peers. His collaboration with Post Malone on "Sunflower" - the Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse soundtrack cut - hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became the first single to earn a double diamond RIAA certification. In April 2026 he released Same Difference, his first fully standalone solo album.
