Yeat

Yeat, born Noah Oliver Smith on February 26, 2000, in Irvine, California, is an American rapper and singer who rose to prominence through his distinctive sound blending rage beats, hypnotic melodies, and an unconventional vocal style. Raised partly in Portland, Oregon, Yeat began making music as a teenager and uploaded tracks to SoundCloud before gaining a dedicated following on platforms like TikTok and YouTube. His early mixtapes, including “Alivv” and “4L,” helped establish him as a rising voice in the underground rap scene before he broke into the mainstream.

Yeat’s career took off in 2021 and 2022 with the release of projects like “Up 2 Me,” “2 Alive,” and “Lyfe,” all of which charted on the Billboard 200. His track “Get Busy” became a viral sensation, and collaborations with artists like Young Thug, Lil Uzi Vert, and Drake further cemented his status. He signed a distribution deal with Interscope Records through his own label Twizzy Rich, giving him creative control while benefiting from major label distribution.

His 2023 album “AftErLyfe” debuted in the top five on the Billboard 200, marking his highest-charting project at the time. Yeat continued his prolific output with additional projects and deluxe editions, maintaining a loyal fanbase that eagerly consumes each release. His concert tours have also become significant revenue generators, with sold-out shows across North America and Europe.

By 2026, Yeat has established himself as one of the most influential artists in modern rap, with an estimated net worth of $6 million. His income is driven by streaming royalties, touring revenue, merchandise sales, and his ownership stake in Twizzy Rich Records. His ability to consistently release music and maintain cultural relevance through social media has made him a model for the new generation of independent-minded artists.
