First studio album and major collaborations
After winning the Breakthrough Artist of the Year award at the Indonesian Choice Awards in May 2017, Rich Brian released his first studio album, Amen, on February 2, 2018. This fourteen-track album includes notable collaborations with Joji on "Introvert," Offset on "Attention," and NIKI on "Little Prince." He changed his stage name to Rich Brian shortly after the album's release. His trajectory continued with appearances on major tracks such as "18" alongside Kris Wu and Trippie Redd, as well as singles like "Gospel" with XXXTentacion and "Crisis" with 21 Savage.
Artistic evolution and second album
In 2019, he released his second studio album, The Sailor, featuring contributions from RZA and Joji. The following year, he released the EP 1999 in August 2020. His discography also includes appearances on compilations such as Head in the Clouds and singles like Yellow featuring Bēkon. In 2021, he participated in the soundtrack for the film Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings with the song Run It, alongside DJ Snake and Rick Ross.
New studio project and inspirational figures
His musical style, classified as pop rap and trap, has evolved to distance himself from his initial image as a comedian in order to create a legitimate work of art. He cites Young Thug, Tyler, The Creator, Yung Lean, and Childish Gambino as his main inspirational figures.
International recognition and labels
Rich Brian signed with 88rising, a label that has been key to his career and has supported his beginnings and the release of his albums. His first album, Amen, reached number 18 on the Billboard 200 in the United States, making him the second artist from Southeast Asia to appear in the top twenty of this chart after Jake Zyrus. His voice, described as raspy but agile, and his writing skills, recognized by HotNewHipHop, have contributed to his worldwide fame.
