Biography

Lola Young is a bold, genre-blending artist from south London, UK, whose music captures the chaos of love, heartbreak and self-discovery. She began writing at 11, performed at open mics and pubs and signed with Island Records at 18. Now 23, she released her debut album This Wasn’t Meant For You Anyway, a raw mix of pop, hip-hop and indie. Her music speaks to the messiness of youth, mental health and growing up in real time. With collaborations with Tyler, The Creator and Lil Yachty and support from Sza and Little Simz, Lola brings honesty to everything she creates. Known for tracks like Messy (UK #1 for a month) and Conceited, she has struck a global chord with her unfiltered storytelling and powerful vocals, earning two Brit Awards and becoming an Ivor Novello Winner (Rising Star Award). Fresh off a US run, Coachella set and opening for Billie Eilish, she’s carving out a fearless space in music.
