Career beginnings

[edit]

Her music career began with the release of Da Rise of Barbie Doll Gang Empire on December 16, 2015[7] and the attention from black owned social media blogs (TheShaderoom/TheNeighborhoodtalk) purposely publishing any disagreements she had for her to get bullied and bodyshamed.[8] Other projects include Drippin in Glo (2016), Project Princess Vol. 1 (2016), OuttaSpace (2017), Kill Bill, Vol. 1 (2017), and Doll SZN (2018).

On June 13, 2018, Allen became the first female artist signed to Gucci Mane's 1017 Eskimo Records.[9] Her first project with 1017 was So Icy Princess (2018). In 2019, Allen went on to release her eighth and ninth mixtapes, UNFUCCWITABLE and Fight Night.[10][11]

Public image

[edit]

In an attempt to distance herself from a group of female rappers using the stage name Doll, Allen changed her name to Asian Da Brat in 2019.[10] The name Asian Da Brat was supposedly a reference to the veteran female rapper from Chicago, Da Brat, whose debut studio album Funkdafied was the first platinum-certified record by a female rapper.[10] In an April 2019 interview on Hot97, Allen stated that Da Brat was a reference to the brand of girls' toys known as Bratz Dolls.[16]

Personal life

[edit]

In January 2021, Allen opened up about suffering depression due to the death of King Von, with whom she was in an on-and-off relationship with before his passing.[17] A few days later, she appeared on an episode of Taraji P. Henson's show Peace of Mind with Taraji to discuss his death.[18] Allen has five tattoos dedicated to Von.[19]

[edit]

In June 2018, Allen was arrested in New York City after getting into a fight. She was released a few hours later.[20]

On September 4, 2020, Allen was arrested in Georgia, U.S., on drug charges.[21] She was released on bond four days later.[22]

In October, 2022, Allen was once again arrested in Douglas County, Georgia, due to failing to appear for the charges stemming from her September 2020 arrest as well as driving 20 miles per hour over the posted speed limit and not having a valid Texas driver's license.[23]
