Kreayshawn, born Natassia Gail Zolot, came up in Oakland, California. Her 2011 single 'Gucci Gucci' became a viral hit, leading to a deal with Columbia Records and her debut mixtape that same year.
She followed that with the studio album 'Somethin' 'Bout Kreay' in 2012 and later released the mixtape 'Anxiety' in 2016. Other tracks like 'Go Hard (La.La.La)' and 'Bumpin' Bumpin'' show the range of her work.
Her style drew from Bay Area hip-hop but also pulled in other sounds, and her outspoken approach to music made her a polarizing figure for a time. She collaborated with artists including Lil B and Diplo.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
