Amaiya Spain (born May 4, 2006), known professionally as Myaap, is an American rapper. Born and raised in Milwaukee, she began rapping while in high school and her 2023 singles "HTS" and "Getting to It" both went viral on TikTok.

Career

[edit | edit source]

Amaiya Spain was born on May 4, 2006[1][2] in Milwaukee, Wisconsin and has three siblings. Before rapping professionally, she would casually freestyle with her older brother. She also took dance lessons in Milwaukee and worked at McDonald's, Gap, and Walmart, with aspirations of working as a mortician or as a backup dancer.[3] Myaap began rapping in 2023 while attending Lynde & Harry Bradley Technology and Trade School, recording songs at Milwaukee's Hi-Five Studios. She posted her songs "HTS" and "Party Crackin'" on TikTok, both of which went viral on the platform in 2023 and 2024, respectively.[2][4] Her 2023 song "Getting to It", which was released in November with a music video and heavily samples the 1976 ABBA song "Dancing Queen", also became popular on TikTok due to a dance associated with the song.[5] It was used in videos by Meghan Trainor, Coco Jones, and Reneé Rapp before being removed from YouTube and streaming platforms due to its sample of "Dancing Queen" being uncleared by Universal Music Group.[6][7]

Myaap's extended play (EP) Big Myaap, Not the Little One was released in January 2024.[7] The following month, Myaap began performing as an opening act throughout Veeze's Ganger Tour. Later in 2024, she released the collaborative extended play Yop! with producer Nedarb on May 31 and the singles "Crunch Time" and "Wrist Buss" in August and September, respectively.[8] By November 2024, she had released a total of four projects. As of 2024, she is based in Atlanta.[4]

In 2025, Myapp released her new single "Fairy."[9]

Musical style

[edit | edit source]

Myaap's music is lowend, a style of Milwaukee hip hop music defined by heavy 808 drums and handclaps, with Piet Levy of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel calling her a "chief ambassador" of the genre.[8][10][11][7] She is also known for incorporating Milwaukee dance moves into her performances.[5] She has stated that she makes songs intended for online virality and writes her songs on her phone.[3] She has listed Milwaukee rappers such as Certified Trapper, Chicken P, and Coo Coo Cal as her musical inspirations.[2]
