Suigeneris

AKA: Suie

Suigeneris (b. July 23, 2003) is an American rapper from San Jose, California. He’s known for his breakout single “Now” featuring rapper Lil Skies. He was born on July 23, 2003, in Riverside, California, but grew up in the Bay Area. He grew up with both parents and he’s of Mexican ancestry. Like any normal kid, he attended school and played sports. Before rapping, he expressed a love for shoes and often talks about selling them. How he got into rapping was quite vague. As he mentioned in an interview, he just “didn’t care” and “just do it.”

Suigeneris’ career started on SoundCloud. Like many other upcoming artists, he too uploaded his early tracks on the music platform with the hope of scoring a hit. One of his first tracks “Pull Up” uploaded in July 2017, did just that. After being tweeted around by prominent figures, the young rapper began receiving a lot of attention and started making important connections. He soon connected with Lil Skies over social media. “Now” rewarded him with newfound fame.

Suie, a fan of Young Thug, Future, and the Migos, claimed his surroundings along with close friends inspire his music. He is often pictured with his trademark red and black hairstyle. His stage name was derived from two words, “Sui generis”, meaning of its own kind, unique.
