Early life[edit]
Chris Smith Jr. was born in St. Louis, Missouri into a musical family: his father plays keys, his mother sings, and his grandfather played bass guitar for Blues Hall of Fame musician Muddy Waters. Both his father and grandfather were given opportunities to take their music far, but they gave up their success to be with their families. When he was seven, his father gave him a set of drums, which he played in his church's band, and also began rapping. He later moved to Chicago, Illinois for college under the wing of his older cousin, singer Drea Smith.[6][7]
Musical career[edit]
2012-16: Career beginnings and various projects[edit]
In 2012, Smino went by the stage name C. Smi, and was in a rap duo with his friend Bari Allen called 'Young Dumb and Outta Control' (YDOC), where they released a mixtape titled Retail. They started to gain popularity locally but had a hard time getting their music out into the world. Smino then released his first solo mixtape, Smeezy Dot Com, and moved back to Chicago. At Columbia College Chicago, he met engineer Chris 'Classick' Inumerable, who became his closest friend and is now his manager.[8][9]
On October 2, 2015 Smino released his first EP, S!Ck S!Ck S!Ck.[10][11] On December 11, he released his second EP titled Blkjuptr.[12] On July 31, 2016, Smino appeared on Noname's mixtape, Telefone, with Saba and Phoelix on the track 'Shadow Man'.[13] On August 17, it was announced that Smino will be alongside Mick Jenkins on the A Quest For Love Tour. On October 27, he made another guest appearance on Bucket List Project on the song 'World in My Hands'.[14]

During October, he was opening act for T-Pain on his Acoustic Tour, who appeared on the remix for 'Anita'.[18][19]
2018–present: NØIR[edit]
In April 2018, he and Monte Booker co-headlined the Kouple Drillz Tour which included shows in Asia and Australia.[20] On May 17, he released a single called 'New Coupe, Who Dis?' featuring Mick Jenkins.[21] He also appeared on some of his frequent collaborative producers tracks, Cam O'Bi on 'TenderHeaded', Phoelix on 'Taranphoeno', and Sango on 'Khlorine'.[22] On July 9, he released a remix to Drake's 'In My Feelings', and a track called 'Coupe Se' Yern' produced by himself.[23]
On October 26, 2018, Smino released a single titled 'L.M.F.' produced by Sango, accompanied by a music video.[24] Smino released the album's second single titled 'Klink' on November 4, announcing it via an Instagram post.[25] His second album, NØIR, was released on November 8.[26] The album includes guest appearances from Zero Fatigue members, Bari, Jay2, and Ravyn Lenae, as well as Dreezy, and Valee. The production came from himself, Monte Booker, THEMpeople, Sango, Phoelix, KRS, Al B Smoov, and Da-P.[27] In 2019, Smino announced the Hoopti Tour, which included 33 shows in England, the United States, and Canada.[28] Supporting acts for the tour will be EarthGang and Phoelix.[29] On April 3, 2019, Smino released the music video for 'Z4L', directed by Ev Solomon and produced by AJR Films, with clips of backstage footage on tour.[30]
Artistry[edit]
Influence[edit]
Smino describes his sound as futuristic funk and soulful rap. He grew up listening to a lot of jazz, gospel, and hip hop, with rappers including Busta Rhymes, Ludacris, Nelly, Bone Thugs-n-Harmony and Field Mob. Smino names Kanye West and André 3000 as his biggest musical influences, as well as his cousin, Drea Smith.[31] In an interview with Pitchfork he stated, 'I grew up in the church, so it was a bunch of gospel along with Musiq Soulchild, Em, T-Pain—just a bunch of soulful dudes that are country. My first favorite rapper was Ludacris.'[10]
Musical style[edit]
Scott Glaysher of Exclaim! described his music is a 'mix of smart rapping and crowd-pleasing, futuristic R&B grooves.'[32] Jay Balfour from Pitchfork said he focuses 'on his incredibly versatile voice within a warm palette of sludgy R&B and neo-funk' and 'throws a million different voices into the mix.'[33]Rolling Stone said 'his rap makes room for southern R&B and imperfect harmony singing; the drums are inevitably cooled out, like nth-wave neo soul.'[34]
Other ventures[edit]
Zero Fatigue[edit]
Smino is a founder and part of a musical collective and record label called Zero Fatigue with Monte Booker, Jay2, Bari, Ravyn Lenae, Elton 'L10MixedIt' Chueng, Chris 'Classick' Innumerable, and Nosidam. The collective's origins began when Smino met Classick at Columbia College Chicago, who owned a recording studio in his house in Chicago and later became his manager. Interning for Classick, engineer and mixer L10MixedIt Chueng met Smino in that studio where they began working together.[35] Unofficial members and affiliates of the collective include Jean Deaux, Drea Smith, and Phoelix.[36]
Fashion[edit]
On April 5, 2018, Smino unveiled his design of satin-hooded hoodies called 'Silk Pillows', named after his song of the same name. After it went viral on Twitter, he explained the design saying 'I made these satin for people with hair who like napping in hoodies.'[37] The hoodie address the problem of waking up with messy or damaged hair.[38][39]
