iYLA is an emerging alternative R&B and pop singer-songwriter originally from Los Angeles, California, specifically the San Fernando Valley, who has quickly gained attention for her unique, genre-blurring sound. Blending sultry vocals with R&B, jazz, and hard-hitting trap beats, the Irish and Italian songstress first broke through with her 2018 debut EP, War + Raindrops, which included the viral hit “Juice.”
Following that success, she’s released projects like Other Ways to Vent (2020) and Appetite for Disaster (2023), featuring collaborations with artists like Method Man and Benny The Butcher, and has been recognized as a YouTube Music Foundry Artist. Her debut full-length album, WEEPING ANGEL (2025), is her most personal work to date, channeling her experience with grief and creative rebirth into a project that is both vulnerable and fiercely confident, showcasing her growth into a dynamic and essential voice in modern R&B.
