Fernando Galvez Gómez (born 23 January 1990), known artistically as Yung Beef, is a Spanish rapper, singer, record producer and model.[1][2] He is known for his mixing of trap, salsa and reggaeton,[3] as well as his bold fashion sense.[4]

Career

He began to become popular as a member of the extinct PXXR GVNG (today Los Santos), which was the first trap collective to sign with a multinational, but now he runs his own record label, La Vendición.[5][6][7] He later gained popularity in the Spanish rap scene with his acclaimed mixtape A.D.R.O.M.I.C.F.M.S., with productions by Steve Lean, 808 Mafia and the Galician duo Lowlight.[8][9]

In March 2017, Yung Beef and a number of other international artists were denied entrance into the U.S. and unable to perform at the South by Southwest music festival.[10]

In the summer of 2018, he landed a Calvin Klein campaign and modelled for Hood By Air during Paris Fashion Week.[11][12]
