Miles Parks McCollum (born August 23, 1997), known better as Lil Yachty, is an American rapper and singer.Yachty originally gained attention in 2015 for his meme-worthy early singles, with "One Night" getting used in a viral video on YouTube and "Minnesota" becoming a meme following its appearance on Drake's OVO Sound Radio show.The two singles were followed by his mixtape Lil Boat, which codified his early style as being defined by Autotuned crooning over dreamy trap beats. Subsequently, he found success as a featured artist on a pair of US Top 5 hits in 2016 — "Broccoli" by DRAM and "iSpy" by Kyle — before releasing another mixtape, Summer Songs 2, which was followed by his major-label debut album, 2017's Teenage Emotions.From there, Yachty's music began to shift into more traditional hip-hop styles, as reflected in his next three albums, Lil Boat 2, Nuthin' 2 Prove and Lil Boat 3. In 2020, he began collaborating more heavily with an underground scene of rappers in Michigan, mostly centered around the cities of Detroit and Flint, and released an entire project with them in that style, 2021's Michigan Boy Boat. Then, in 2023, he released Let's Start Here., which unexpectedly eschews hip-hop entirely in favour of Psychedelic Rock of all sounds.As an entertainment personality, Yachty has appeared in commercials for Sprite, Nautica and Urban Outfitters, as well as a Target commercial for which he covered "It Takes Two"note The '80s hip-hop song by Rob Base and DJ E-Z Rock, not the '70s R&B song by Marvin Gaye and Kim Weston with Carly Rae Jepsen. He also performed the theme tune for the 2019 revival of Saved by the Bell and voiced Hal Jordan, the Green Lantern in Teen Titans Go! To the Movies.Discography: Summer Songs (EP; 2015) Honey, Let's Spend Wintertime On A Boat (with Wintertime) (EP; 2015) Lil Boat (mixtape; 2016) Summer Songs 2 (mixtape; 2016) Teenage Emotions (Album, 2017) Lil Boat 2 (album; 2017) Nuthin' 2 Prove (album; 2018) A-Team (with Zaytoven, Lil Keed and Lil GotIt) (mixtape; 2020) Lil Boat 3 (album; 2020) Lil Boat 3.5 (EP; 2020) Michigan Boy Boat (mixtape; 2021) Let’s Start Here.

New Sound Album: Michigan Boy Boat, which takes its cues from underground Michigan hip-hop rather than the mix of Pop Rap and Trap Music in most of his other work. Let’s Start Here. eschews hip-hop entirely in favor of a spacier neo-psychedelia sound.

Sampling: "T.D." samples (and is named after) "Tokyo Drift" by the Teriyaki Boyz, from the soundtrack to The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift. "All Times" samples the main theme from Rugrats. "Bentley Coupe" is built around a vocal sample of Minnie Riperton's "Lovin' You". "Forever World" samples "Soon As I Get Home" by Faith Evans. "Fight Night Round 3", appropriately enough, samples "Going the Distance" by Bill Conti, from the soundtrack to Rocky. "WE SAW THE SUN!" ends with a spoken-word sample of Bob Ross from The Joy of Painting. Lil Nas X sampled Yachty's "NBAYOUNGBOAT" for his own "Sonic Shit".

Alter-Ego Acting: Lil Yachty (the emotional singer) vs Lil Boat (the boastful rapper) vs Darnell Boat (the fictional uncle of both Boat and Yachty, who appears in various skits in his early work).
