Early life

Landrau was born in Medford, Massachusetts. [3] She is of Puerto Rican [4] and Italian descent. [5] [6] In an interview with Oxygen's website, she spoke about wanting to become a rapper at a young age after attending studio sessions with rappers and helping them record. [7] Landrau attended college briefly, but after realizing it did not suit her, she dropped out and began bartending to pay for studio time. [8] She moved to Los Angeles, California, full time in 2017. [9] She was first discovered by rapper Fam-Lay. [10]

Career

2014–2015: Career beginnings and #CholaSeason

Bia was initially discovered by rapper Fam-Lay through YouTube and who later introduced her to Pharrell. [1] Bia starred on the first two seasons of the Oxygen reality television series Sisterhood of Hip Hop . In 2014, she signed to the I Am Other music label as part of a collaboration with RCA Records and began working with T.I as well as singers Jennifer Hudson and Usher. [6] [7] Later that year, Bia released a mixtape entitled #CholaSeason. In an interview with radio station Hot 97's morning show Ebro in the Morning in September 2015, she revealed that she would not return for season 3 of Sisterhood of Hip Hop. [6]

2016–2018: Touring and Nice Girls Finish Last: Cuidado

Bia served as the opening act for Pusha T's Darkest Before the Dawn Tour in March and April 2016. [11] The next month, Bia alongside Victoria Monét, were the main support acts for the European leg of Ariana Grande's Dangerous Woman Tour. [12] Bia also opened for select dates during the North American leg. Bia was featured on J Balvin's song "Safari", released as a single in May 2016. The track topped the charts in Mexico and Spain [13] [14] as well as peaking at No. 3 on the US Latin Charts. [15]

In 2016, Bia released the singles "Whip It" and "Gucci Comin' Home". [9] These singles were followed by "Badside" and "Fungshway", which were both released in 2017. [16] All four singles were intended to be included on Bia's then-upcoming debut EP titled Trap Vogue, to be followed by her debut album.

[26] [27] "Best on Earth", a collaboration with rapper and singer Russ, was released on October 17, 2019.

[36] A music video for the song "Whole Lotta Money" was released on April 8, 2021. [37] Following viral success on the social media platform TikTok, the song was serviced to Rhythmic radio on May 18, 2021, becoming the fifth single from the EP. A remix featuring Nicki Minaj was released on July 9, 2021, and caused the song to reach a peak of number 16 on the Billboard Hot 100, becoming Bia's highest-charting song.
