Artist Julius Dubose (born December 6, 1995), known professionally as A Boogie wit da Hoodie, is an American rapper, and singer-songwriter. He released his debut studio album, The Bigger Artist, via Atlantic Records in 2017. Led by the Billboard Hot 100-top 20 single "Drowning" (featuring Kodak Black), the album was met with critical praise and peaked at number four on the Billboard 200.
His second album, Hoodie SZN (2018), peaked atop the Billboard 200, while his third, Artist 2.0 (2020) peaked at number two; the albums were supported by his second and third top 20 singles, "Look Back at It" and "Numbers" (featuring Roddy Ricch, Gunna and London on da Track), respectively. At the BET Awards 2018, Dubose won Best New Artist. His fourth album, Me vs. Myself (2022), peaked at number six on the Billboard 200 and received generally favorable reviews.
Dubose's stage name is derived from the character "Ace Boogie" from the 2002 film Paid in Full, and because he frequently wore hoodies, friends gave him the nickname "A Boogie wit da Hoodie".
