Mao Yanqi (Chinese: 毛衍七; born 29 October 1995), professionally known as Vava, is a Chinese rapper from Ya'an, Sichuan, China. She has been called China's Rihanna.
Vava rose to fame from her performance on the first season of the iQiyi television show The Rap of China. Her song "My New Swag" 《我的新衣 (feat. Ty. & 王倩倩)》 is featured in the 2018 film Crazy Rich Asians.
