AboutYung Lean is a Swedish rapper, singer, and songwriter, born on July 18, 1996, in Stockholm, Sweden. His real name is Jonatan Aron Leandoer Håstad, but he is better known by his stage name Yung Lean.
Yung Lean rose to fame in 2013 with his debut mixtape "Unknown Death 2002", which he released on the internet. The mixtape quickly gained popularity, especially on social media platforms like Tumblr and SoundCloud, where it was widely shared and discussed. The music was characterized by a unique blend of trap music, cloud rap and electronic beats, along with Yung Lean's introspective and often surreal lyrics.
Following the success of "Unknown Death 2002," Yung Lean formed a music collective called "Sad Boys" with fellow Swedish musicians Yung Gud, Yung Sherman, and Bladee. Together they released the mixtape "Lavender EP" in 2013, which further established Yung Lean as a rising star in the underground music scene.
In 2014, Yung Lean released his debut studio album, "Unknown Memory", which featured collaborations with producers such as Yung Gud, Yung Sherman, and Whitearmor. The album received positive reviews from music critics and peaked at number 18 on the Swedish Albums Chart.
Yung Lean's music often deals with themes of depression, drug use, and melancholy, which has led to some critics labeling it as "sad rap". However, Yung Lean himself has rejected this label, stating that he does not see his music as being particularly sad, but rather as a reflection of his personal experiences and emotions.
In addition to his music career, Yung Lean has also been involved in fashion and has worked with clothing brands such as H&M and Converse. He has also appeared in campaigns for Calvin Klein and has been featured in publications such as Vogue and GQ.
