Background notes
Archive material and source history
Yungen came up in South London, specifically Brixton, where he started working on music that pulled from Afrobeats, hip-hop, and R&B. His 2015 single "Bestie" broke through, landing on the UK Singles Chart and getting him wider attention. That track, along with later ones like "Mind On It," showed his ear for melody and straightforward vocal delivery.
He put out his debut mixtape "Project Black" in 2016, followed by releases like "Brave" in 2017 and "Growth" in 2019. His 2022 project was called "Love + Empathy." Over those years, he worked with DJ Richard on tour and had a backing band called The Black Hearts for live shows.
In 2019, Yungen faced domestic abuse allegations, which he denied. The situation affected his career for a time, though he continued putting out music afterward.
