Mykki Blanco

Mykki Blanco, born Michael David Quattlebaum Jr. on April 2, 1986, is a trailblazing figure in the music artistry known for an eclectic blend of hip-hop, punk, and performance art. Embracing a gender-fluid persona in both life and music, Blanco began their career in the early 2010s and quickly became an influential voice in the queer music scene. They are not just a rapper but a poet and activist, whose work often delves into themes of identity, sexuality, and challenging societal norms.

The latter half of the 2010s and the onset of the 2020s saw Mykki Blanco further expand their discography with thought-provoking and vibrant releases. In 2021, their mini-album "Broken Hearts & Beauty Sleep" marked a pivotal moment, offering an infusion of soulful hooks and poignant lyrics.
