YFEGUERO grew up all around Northeast Los Angeles, shaped by a city that moves fast and teaches you early. His childhood was simple in the best way—long days at the park, hooping with friends, running sports at SNL, and just being outside from morning to night. He bounced from school to school, which made him known everywhere he went. Faces changed, but the energy stayed the same, and by the time he was a teenager, everybody already knew his name.
High school didn’t play out the way it does in the movies. The grades weren’t there, sports fell off, and the homies were in the same boat. Instead of chasing eligibility, they started chasing money, moving fast at a young age, already locked into the idea of getting rich and figuring life out on their own terms. That mindset stuck.
Music entered his life seriously at 16, though it always felt like it was already there. He was the kid rapping in class, singing his favorite songs, never really able to sit still. Teachers and classmates used to tell him he was going to be an artist, and even back then it felt natural. His ADHD fueled it—music became the way he focused, the way he made sense of everything.
Coming up, his sound was molded by artists like NBA YoungBoy, NoCap, Lil Durk, Lil Pete, and Bravo the Bag Chaser. Hearing “Get Rich” by Bravo lit a spark that pushed him to make his first song. There was no studio, no recording—just rapping in the back of a homie’s Infiniti. The song never got tracked, but everyone in the hood still knows the lyrics, which says everything about how early his voice carried.
If YFEGUERO had to describe his sound, it’s simple: he can do it all. His music is true to who he is and what he lives every day. It’s wavy, it’s lifestyle music, and whatever mood he’s in, that’s what comes through the records. He knows how to bring out that raw LA sound—he’s already got tracks with millions of views proving that—but he also blends in that wavy Florida influence, polishing every detail. His bars are built on punchlines that aren’t obvious or corny, the kind that fly over your head at first and hit later. Every song tells a story, no filler, no basic bars. Every line means something, and it still sounds good riding through the city.
Since he was 16, he’s been locked in with DG, a partnership that’s only gotten stronger over time. The first song they ever made together, “Henny,” went on to rack up over two million views across platforms. DG understands his sound completely, and together they move like an unstoppable unit.
Before music fully took over, YFEGUERO was always outside—Highland Park Rec, Glassell Park, SNL—hooping nonstop until he got older and life shifted. Like a lot of young LA kids, it turned into smoking, moving around, and figuring things out in real time. He’s always loved getting money, getting fly, and being around women. He never cared about playing the tough guy role, but when it came time to handle business, he handled it.
His most recent release, 30&10s, is a wavy love story layered with street reality and trapping, told through his own lens. It shows a real side of Los Angeles that people who really understand the city can relate to. It’s not gangbanging music—it’s the soundtrack for getting money, riding around, and living life.
Now, his newest track “GUCCI” is picking up serious momentum, and he already sees what’s coming. The numbers are about to speak for themselves.
YFEGUERO stands solid in his circle, giving respect where it’s earned. Shout out to DG and Da Goat Records, the real ones. And shout out No Broke Smoke LA.
