About
Earl Sweatshirt turned underground rap into critical prestige with sparse, introspective beats and vulnerable lyrics. Born Thebe Neruda Kgositsile on February 24, 1994, in the US, he started as Sly Tendencies in 2008 before Tyler, the Creator tapped him for Odd Future in late 2009. His mixtape Earl, released at 16, earned immediate acclaim; after a year at Samoan boarding school, he returned to drop Doris (2013), which peaked in the top five of the Billboard 200. A Pisces with life-path number 4, he channels introspection into meticulous album craft [F1, enrichments].

Biography
Earl Sweatshirt—the stage name of Thebe Neruda Kgositsile—built a reputation as one of hip-hop's most uncompromising lyricists and producers. Born February 24, 1994, in the US, he is the son of South African political poet Keorapetse Kgositsile. He began rapping in 2008 under the moniker Sly Tendencies before Tyler, the Creator invited him to join the alternative hip-hop collective Odd Future in late 2009, a move that redirected his trajectory.
At 16, Earl gained recognition and critical praise for his second mixtape, Earl (2010). Immediately after, his mother enrolled him in a boarding school in Samoa for at-risk teens; he attended for a year and a half, unable to record during that stretch. He returned to Los Angeles in February 2012 before his eighteenth birthday, rejoined Odd Future, and signed with Columbia Records to release his debut studio album, Doris (2013), which peaked within the top five of the Billboard 200.
His subsequent albums—I Don't Like Shit, I Don't Go Outside (2015) and Some Rap Songs (2018)—both peaked within the top 20 and were critically praised. He later signed with Warner Records and released the EP Feet of Clay (2019), followed by the studio albums Sick! (2022) and Live Laugh Love (2025). He collaborated with record producer The Alchemist on the joint album Voir Dire (2023) and with Mike on Pompeii // Utility (2026). As a rapper and record producer, Earl channels intricate production and confessional lyricism into his work. A Pisces born on the life-path number 4, he embodies the introspective, detail-oriented nature associated with that numerological path [F1, enrichments].
