Bladee, born Benjamin Reichwald on April 9, 1994, in Stockholm, Sweden, is a groundbreaking artist known for his genre-defying blend of cloud rap, experimental pop, and ethereal R&B. As a co-founder of Drain Gang—alongside Ecco2k, Thaiboy Digital, and Whitearmor—Bladee has been pivotal in shaping a distinct, futuristic sound that has gained global recognition. His 2014 debut mixtape Gluee set the tone with atmospheric production and introspective lyrics, while projects like Eversince (2016), Red Light (2018), and Crest (2022) cemented his status as a leader in experimental music. In 2024, he released Psykos, a collaboration with Yung Lean, and Cold Visions, expanding his sonic palette. Beyond music, Bladee's influence extends to visual art and fashion, serving as creative director for Sadboys Gear and showcasing his artwork in solo exhibitions.
