DeMario DeWayne White Jr. (born September 22, 1991[2]), known professionally as Moneybagg Yo, is an American rapper from Memphis, Tennessee. He is known for his melodic trap and Southern hip hop music style.[3][4]

White signed with fellow Memphis rapper Yo Gotti's record label, Collective Music Group in 2016, later in a joint venture with Interscope Records.[5] His commercial mixtapes Federal 3X (2017) and 2 Heartless (2018) yielded his mainstream breakthrough, peaking at numbers five and 16 on the Billboard 200, respectively.[6] His studio albums, Reset (2018), 43va Heartless (2019), Time Served (2020), and A Gangsta's Pain (2021), were each met with critical and commercial success; the latter became his first to debut atop the chart and spawned the Billboard Hot 100-top 20 single "Wockesha."

White is the recipient of multiple accolades, and has received a Grammy Award nomination, in addition to American Music Award, MTV Music Video Award, Hollywood Music in Media Award, and iHeartRadio Music Award nominations; for the latter of which, he received four.[7][8][9][10] He won the 2021 "Trapper of the Year" Award by genre progenitor T.I.[11][12][13]
