Musical artist

Diamonté Quiava Valentin Harper[3] (born July 2, 1993),[4] known professionally as Saweetie (/səˈwiːti/; also pronounced as simply "sweetie"), is an American rapper and singer. Her 2017 debut single, "Icy Grl", received double platinum certification by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and led her to sign with Warner Records in a joint venture with her then-manager Max Gousse's record label, Artistry Worldwide.

Her debut extended play (EP), High Maintenance (2017) was met with lukewarm reception and failed to chart. Her second, Icy (2019) moderately entered the Billboard 200 and spawned the single "My Type", which marked her first entry—at number 21—on the Billboard Hot 100 and received quadruple platinum certification by the RIAA. Her 2020 single, "Tap In" and her 2021 single, "Best Friend" (featuring Doja Cat), both peaked within the chart's top 20, and are preceding the release of her forthcoming debut studio album, Pretty Bitch Music. At the 64th Annual Grammy Awards, the latter song earned a nomination for Best Rap/Sung Performance, while Harper herself was nominated for Best New Artist.

## Early life and education
