Mini bio
How it started.
Born in Inglewood and raised in Texas and Tupelo, Swae began experimenting with production and recording software around age 11. He and his older brother Slim Jxmmi made music together long before becoming Rae Sremmurd.
The breakout.
The brothers signed with Mike WiLL Made-It’s EarDrummers label in 2013. “No Flex Zone” and “No Type” brought them a wider audience in 2014, followed by SremmLife in 2015. Their 2016 song “Black Beatles,” featuring Gucci Mane, reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and became closely tied to the Mannequin Challenge.
A voice across records.
His work extends from French Montana’s “Unforgettable” to songwriting on Beyoncé’s “Formation” and vocals on Travis Scott’s “Sicko Mode.” With Post Malone, he recorded “Sunflower” for Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse. His solo disc Swaecation appeared within SR3MM in 2018, followed by the standalone album SAME DIFFERENCE in April 2026.
