Christopher Edwin Breaux, professionally known as Frank Ocean, is an American singer/songwriter and member of the gleefully hedonistic hip-hop collective OFWGKTA. He was born on October 28, 1987 and lived in Long Beach, California. He has helped pen tracks for Justin Bieber, John Legend, Brandy, and Beyoncé over the last few years. In 2011, Ocean released his debut mixtape, Nostalgia, Ultra, for free via his Tumblr.. Venting about his decision to drop the record his own way, he took to Twitter on March 1, 2011: "i. did. this. not ISLAND DEF JAM. that's why you see no label logo on the artwork that I DID. guess its my fault for trusting my dumbass lawyer and signing my career over to a failing company. fuck Def Jam & any company that goes the length of signing a kid with dreams & talent w/ no intention of following through. fuck em. now back to my day. i want some oatmeal and toast. brunch swag." As a member of the Odd Future (OFWGKTA) collective, his sound is distinctively soulful/r&b influenced, yet done in a way that could pass for something totally different. As Tyler, the Creator states, “It’s Smooth Ass Music About Bitches, Relationships And Being A Rich Young Nigga…But In A Swagged Out Way.” Ocean was evacuated from the University of New Orleans to Los Angeles, California just as Hurricane Katrina hit in August 2005, and stayed in Los Angeles to pursue a music career. Ocean joined Los Angeles based collective OFWGKTA, who he met through mutual friends, at the end of 2009. In the end of 2009, he met Tricky Stewart, who helped Ocean sign a contract with Def Jam Recordings as an artist, however, he was initially unable to build a relationship with the company. In 2010, he changed his name from Christopher "Lonny" Breaux to Christopher Francis Ocean via a legal website. In an April 2011 interview, Ocean intimated that his relationship with Def Jam has strengthened since the release of his mixtape. On April 28, 2011, Ocean was arrested on unspecified charges by the LAPD, and was released on the morning after on April 29, 2011. Ocean joined his OFWGKTA bandmates for the first time on tour from May 12 to May 19, 2011. On May 31, 2011, Def Jam released the single Novacane on iTunes soon followed by Swim Good Taken from his mixtape Nostalgia, ULTRA. His first 'proper' album, Channel Orange was released on July 17, 2012. In 2016, he released the visual album Endless alongside his second studio album Blonde, following several years of delays. Blonde debuted at number one in the United States and United Kingdom. In 2017, Ocean released several singles, including Chanel and Lens, through his Blonded Radio show, and made several appearances on other songs by artists like Calvin Harris, A$AP Mob, and Tyler, the Creator.

Migos was an American hip hop group formed in Lawrenceville, Georgia, in 2008. The group consisted of Quavo, his nephew Takeoff, and their friend Offset. Quavo was from Athens, Georgia, while Offset and Takeoff were born and raised in Lawrenceville. The group was managed by Coach K and frequently worked with producers DJ Durel, Murda Beatz, Zaytoven, and Buddah Bless. Migos were associated with the development of trap music in the 2010s and were noted for bringing elements of North Atlanta culture into mainstream music. The group's 2013 single "Versace" emerged from their third mixtape, "Y.R.N. (Young Rich Niggas)", released in June 2013. The song was later remixed by Drake, which contributed to its entry on the Billboard Hot 100. Subsequent singles included "Fight Night" and "Look at My Dab" in the following years. Their 2016 single "Bad and Boujee" featuring Lil Uzi Vert reached number one on the Billboard Hot 100. Later singles such as "MotorSport" with Nicki Minaj and Cardi B in 2017, and "Stir Fry" and "Walk It Talk It" featuring Drake in 2018, also reached the top ten. Migos signed with Quality Control Music and 300 Entertainment to release their debut studio album, "Yung Rich Nation" (2015), which received positive reviews and peaked at number 17 on the Billboard 200. Their second album, "Culture" (2017), debuted at number one and included the single "Bad and Boujee". After moving from 300 Entertainment to a joint venture with Motown and Capitol Records in February 2017, the group released their third album, "Culture II" (2018), which also reached number one and sold approximately 200,000 album-equivalent units in its first week. Their fourth album, "Culture III" (2021), peaked at number two on the Billboard 200.
