Rae Sremmurd
Rae Sremmurd ( RAY SHREM-urd; "Ear Drummers" spelled backwards) is an American hip-hop duo composed of brothers Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi, both of whom are from Tupelo, Mississippi. They signed with record producer Mike Will Made It's label EarDrummers Records, an imprint of Interscope Records as the 1st act to sign with 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 atop the Billboard Hot 100 and preceded the release of their second album, SremmLife 2 (2016), which was met with continued commercial success. In that same year, the duo also formed the record label SremmLife Crew Records.
Their third album, SR3MM (2018), served as a triple album and peaked at number six on the Billboard 200. Their fourth, Sremm 4 Life (2023), peaked at number 28.
Lee has since shifted focus onto his solo career following the release of his 2018 single, "Sunflower" (with Post Malone).
