Agust D, the musical moniker of Min Yoongi, better known as SUGA from the global K-pop sensation BTS, is a South Korean rapper, producer, and songwriter who has made significant waves as a solo artist within the hip-hop and K-pop genres. Born on March 9, 1993, in Daegu, South Korea, Yoongi adopted the name Agust D for his solo work—a name derived by spelling "DT Suga" (Daegu Town Suga) backwards and representing his raw and unfiltered style separate from his identity in BTS. His self-titled mixtape "Agust D" released in 2016 introduced his fierce and introspective lyrical prowess, earning critical acclaim.

Yoongi's second mixtape, "D-2," dropped in May 2020 and built upon his reputation as a formidable and honest artist, exploring personal themes such as fame, mental health, and self-reflection. The lead single, "Daechwita," showcases a blend of traditional Korean instrumentation with hard-hitting rap, affirming Agust D's duality as both a modern musician and a cultural connoisseur. With a growing discography that includes recent releases like 'D-DAY' and the collaborative track 'People Pt.2 (feat. IU),' Agust D continues to push the boundaries of his artistry and gain international recognition for his rich, autobiographical storytelling and innovative sound.
