Early life

[edit | edit source]

Shin Yu-bin was studying in Russia when she was 12. She realized her talent in rapping when she sang along to Young Money's songs in the school festival. She then decided to be a rapper.[1] She became interested in Korean hip hop after Swings called out fellow rappers on the beat of "Control". She took rap lessons from rapper JJK.[2] She was influenced by Green Day, My Chemical Romance, and Panic! at the Disco.[3] She adopted the stage name "Swervy" because she wanted to live without doing what she did not want to do.[4]

Career

In 2019, she signed to Hi-Lite Records.[5] In 2020, she released her debut studio album Undercover Angel, which received critical acclaim.[6] In 2021, she became the first female musician to win Best Rap Song at the Korean Music Awards with "Mama Lisa".[7]
