Though her 2020 song “Yucky Blucky Fruitcake” made for an instant hit online, that was far from the only single that helped the 26-year-old gain a massive fanbase. With hits like “Crazy,” “Persuasive” and “What It Is,” the Tampa native has proven herself as a force to be reckoned with—as evidenced by her 2025 Grammy nomination for Best New Artist.
In fact, with the release of her album Alligator Bites Never Heal, the timing was perfect for Grammy submissions, confirming her entry to Rolling Stone, with an ecstatic: “Yes. Yes, yes, yes.”
“Curating it, I went in with the intention of context,” she told the publication in September. “That was a big thing for me. Sometimes projects can feel long when there’s no context to what you’re talking about. There’s no story or no narration to build on. I felt like it was necessary for me to tell my story in detail and in many different ways, through many different beats. And it was important for us to go in chronological order of what has happened to me, how that has made me feel, how I overcame it, and where I am now.”
