Rae Sremmurd
Rae Sremmurd ( RAY SHREM-urd; (Ear Drummers spelled backwards) is an American hip hop duo originating from Tupelo, Mississippi, formed by brothers Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi. They signed a recording contract with record producer Mike WiLL Made-It’s label EarDrummers Records, an imprint of Interscope Records as the first act to sign to the label in 2013. The duo rose to mainstream prominence following the release of their 2014 singles “No Flex Zone,” “No Type” and “Throw Sum Mo” (featuring Nicki Minaj and Young Thug). Each received triple platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), peaked within the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100, and promoted the release of their debut studio album, SremmLife (2015), which itself received double platinum certification. Their 2016 single, “Black Beatles” (featuring Gucci Mane) peaked the Billboard Hot 100 and preceded the release of their second album SremmLife 2 (2016), which saw continued commercial success. During that same year, the duo also formed their own record label, SremmLife Crew Records.
Their third studio album, SR3MM was released on May 4, 2018 and served as a triple album. Their fourth studio album, Sremm 4 Life, was released on April 4, 2023. Despite commercial success as a duo, Lee has focused further on his solo career since his 2018 single, “Sunflower” (with Post Malone).
