There are at least 2 artists sharing the name YESTERDAY: 1) a rapper signed to BIGBABYGUCCI's label Better Temperatures 2) an experimental emo R&B/Hip-Hop artist from New Jersey now known as cpt. sad 1) Makale Hawkins, known by his stage name YESTERDAY and formerly by LIL COUPE, is a hip-hop artist from Texarkana, Texas, who is currently based in Los Angeles. Hawkins gained initial popularity in mid-2016 with tracks such as JEALOUSY and OK KOOL, creating plugg music early on in the genre’s development. Several projects under the moniker LIL COUPE were released in 2016, 2017, and 2018, such as Mission Impossible, 187 CUTTHROAT DRIVE, Newborn, WOCKHARDT TEXAS RANGER, and FALLEN ANGEL. In 2021, he rebranded himself as YESTERDAY and released an EP titled DAY AFTER TOMORROW. It took about a year to revise his new sound into a rough prototype of what it is today; thus, INTERIOR MONOLOGUE was born. In October 2022, YESTERDAY released DON’T FORGET 2 BREATHE, a 10-track album further encapsulating and refining his new sound. YESTERDAY is signed to BIGBABYGUCCI’s independent record label, Better Temperatures, and released his first album under the label in February 2023, entitled TOMORROW’S TOO LATE. The album shows much improvement over any of his previous sounds and is a testament to YESTERDAY’s insane work ethic. The dark, ambient drawl in Hawkins' music has continued to attract the ear of fans, and, as he and his Better Temperatures labelmates continue to rise, you do not want to wait until tomorrow to get hip to YESTERDAY. 2) New Jersey-born Jerry Kirwin began the yesterday project in mid-to-late 2016. Initially inspired to learn guitar at the age of nine after playing Guitar Hero, he joined and left a number of bands before embarking up this R&B and Hip-Hop centered experimental project. He then became interested in music’s “emo” subculture, the genre he now describes his music as. yesterday can be heard playing the guitar the majority in his music, and while he doesn’t always produce his songs, he outsources to artists with similar interests, including killedmyself and guccihighwaters. He’s released two EPs: 2016’s the love ep and 2017’s dead man walking. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
