    Rae Sremmurd ( /ˈreɪ ʃrˈɪmɜːrd/)[1] is an American hip hop duo originating from Tupelo, Mississippi formed by two brothers, Swae Lee and Slim Jxmmi.[2] In 2013, they signed a record deal with Mike Will Made-It's EarDrummers imprint. In January 2015, the duo released their debut album SremmLife, which was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). In August 2016, the duo released their sophomore album, SremmLife 2. During that same year, the duo also created their own record label, called SremmLife Crew Records.
    The duo are best known for their single "Black Beatles" from Sremmlife 2. The single "Black Beatles" peaked at number one on the US Billboard Hot 100, while also charting internationally in the top ten in many countries. The duo also released other platinum-certified singles such as "No Type", "No Flex Zone" and "Swang".
    Early life[edit]
    Aaquil Iben Shamon Brown (also known as Slim Jxmmi) and his little brother Khalif Malik Ibn Shaman Brown (also known as Swae Lee) were born in Inglewood, California,[3] on December 29 and June 7 respectively. They grew up with their mother, Bernadette Walker,[4] and their brother, Michael, their father having abandoned his family a few years after the birth of his sons.[5]
    Their mother worked for the army and was regularly deployed in different states. The family moved several times, leaving California for Mississippi and Maryland and finally settling in the military post of Fort Hood in Texas.[6][5] The two brothers started practicing, dancing and writing music together at an early age.[7] In Texas, around his 10th birthday, Khalif learned to produce music using Fruity Loops.[5]
    While the two boys were in middle school, the family left Texas and moved back to Mississippi to join Bernadette's new companion, Floyd Sullivan,[8] after she left the army.[5] They settled in the city of Tupelo, Mississippi, in the notorious Ida Street housing projects,[9] where their stepfather lived. The young couple had a son named Floyd Jr. Sullivan. To support the family and to keep the boys in school, their stepfather sold drugs.[5]
    2009–12: Career beginnings and Dem Outta St8 Boyz[edit]
    The Brown brothers met Jemiah Middlebrooks in Tupelo while he was playing basketball at a local park.[10] They decided to found a hip hop band called "Dem Outta St8 Boyz" with him. Aaquil took the stage name "CaliBoy", Khalif chose "Kid Krunk" and Jemiah took "Lil Pantz".[10] They used money from their part-time jobs to buy equipment and to produce music at home.[11] The two brothers were composing their own beats and the trio were rapping on. Visibly inspired by Soulja Boy Tell'Em, the boys released songs and dance videos on social networks of the time.[12][13] It was at the same time that the group first met, and then later became friends with Jermarcus Jackson aka JJ (today known as Jay Sremm), a young disc jockey, who was studying at Tupelo High School with the two brothers. He since became the DJ of the group.[5]
    Shortly after, Bernadette Walker and her companion split up. Following the break-up, the two brothers started skipping school and working more seriously on music. They would return home at late hours, even when they had school the next morning.[14] Their mother, fed up with their schedules, eventually kicked them out of her house, leaving them homeless. They began squatting in an abandoned house in the city with a friend of their stepdad’s. They took advantage of the opportunity and organized parties in their new home in order to spread their music.[5]
    At the beginning of 2010, the group released the single "Party Animal",[15] which gave them a local fame, allowing them to perform at these local festivals and to broadcast their tracks on local radios.[6][5] Thanks to their savings, the group took part in the auditions of the "Wild Out Wednesday" segment on BET's show "106 & Park" in Memphis, Tennessee and succeeded to qualify. They participated on the December 8th show in New York City and performed "Party Animal".[16] Later, the group met a young rapper, named Andre "King Dre" Harris (today known as BoBo Swae), while he was freestyling in the high school courtyard.[7] Andre originally from West Point, Mississippi, freshly arrived in Tupelo, and then started collaborating with the trio.[17] Months later, the group finally released their first project, distributed locally.
