Early life[]

Allen was born on December 7, 1996 to LaKeithia Lewis and Michael Allen, and was the second daughter of four children. Raised in the south side of Dallas in a projects area known as Park Row,[6] Allen's early life was dealt with instability; from poverty and her father being in and out of prison. Allen is a member of the Crips. Allen attended Skyline High School and dropped out in the 12th grade.

Career[]

Her music career began with the release of Da Rise of Barbie Doll Gang Empire on December 16, 2015[7] and media-influenced social "beefs" have contributed to greater attention.[8] Other projects include Drippin in Glo (2016), Project Princess Vol. 1 (2016), OuttaSpace (2017), Kill Bill, Vol. 1 (2017) Doll SZN, So Icy Princess (2018) her eighth mixtape release UNFUCCWITABLE (May 3, 2019).[9][10] She released Doll SZN Reloaded on April 8, 2020. Allen is a company owner.

Public image[]

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.[11] 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.[12] 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.[13] Asian Da Brat has a tattoo of her late boyfriend King Von (who died in 2020) on her left hand.

In January 2021, Allen opened up about suffering depression due to the death of King Von.[14] A few days later, she appeared on an episode of Taraji P. Henson's show "Peace of Mind with Taraji".[15]

Legal issues[]

On September 4, 2020, Allen was arrested in Georgia, U.S., on unknown charges.[16] She was released on bond four days later.[17]
