Английская Википедия:Chase Icon
Шаблон:Infobox musical artist Chase Icon (born February 22, 2001) is an American singer, songwriter, social media content creator, and reality television personality native to Southern California.[1] She is a member of the band Freakalicious, alongside That Kid and Ayesha Erotica.
Early life
The youngest of three sisters, Chase Icon was born into a devout Christian family. Throughout her upbringing, her parents strictly forbade her from engaging with any form of media which they deemed oppositional to their conservative religious values. Early into her adolescence, Icon decided to renounce the teachings of her faith that she found incongruent with her identity and personal desires. Consequently, at the age of 15, she was forced to leave her family home to reside with her eldest sister.
Career
2013–2020: Career beginnings
In June 2013, Icon started to gain a following on the social media platform Twitter after creating an initially anonymous account to participate in online communities dedicated to discussing contemporary pop culture.[2] However, Icon gained popularity in late-2019 when she started uploading comedic impersonations of female celebrities to her profile—most notably, Kylie Jenner and Lady Gaga. The widespread virality of these videos quickly propelled her towards online notoriety among predominantly queer youth on the internet, providing Icon with opportunities to experiment in musicianship.[2]
In 2020, Icon starred in the British reality-television competition program Slag Wars: The Next Destroyer as the series’ primary narrator.[3]
Following positive reception towards her vocal and creative contributions to the song "Lice" in collaboration with Russian hyperpop artist Kyunchi in June 2020, Icon started on her first extended play scheduled to release the following year.
2021: "SRS" and Domination
On January 15, 2021, Icon formally commenced her solo career in music with the release of her debut single "SRS" (an acronym for “sex reassignment surgery”).[4] In April, she released "I'm Perfect".[5] Both singles were produced by independent electronic-dance producer, Space Candy.[2]
Icon collaborated with Greek DJ BABYNYMPH on the song "Nemesis", released on May 28.[6] Later that year, she released "Life Alert", the lead single to her debut extended play, Domination. The EP was released on September 1 to generally favorable reviews from public audiences.[7]
In December, she released the single "Zip" with Spanish musician Rakky Ripper.[8]
2022–present: The Girlfriend Experience and "Club Cooter"
In late 2021 and early 2022, Icon released a collection of singles with similar visuals: "808", "Like Me", and "Call Your Mom". She was also featured on Croatian producer Only Fire's single "Cheeks", released on February 24, 2022.[9]
On June 17, 2022, she announced the single "Nancy", which was released on June 23.
In September, she appeared on American singer That Kid's mixtape Superstar (2022) on the track "Thelma & Louis",[10] released the single "Chase Radio",[11] and announced her upcoming extended play to be released in October.
On October 5, Boiler Room announced their December 2022 Subculture Party on Twitter; the tweet featured an unreleased song by Icon, later revealed to be "Bang (My Body)".[12] On October 8, Icon announced her second extended play, The Girlfriend Experience, set to be released the following week.[13] She teased tracks "Bang (My Body)" and "You Can't Come to My Party" on her social networks to promote the EP. It was released on October 14, 2022.
On March 29, 2023, Icon released the song "Club Cooter" exclusively on SoundCloud, heavily sampling Felix da Housecat's "Silver Screen Shower Scene".[14] However, after contacting Felix's publishing company in an effort to upload the song to streaming services, Icon deleted the song from SoundCloud and YouTube. She announced on her Instagram story: "they will not let me put the song on streaming [...] They're going as far as to make me remove it from both YouTube and SoundCloud".[15]Шаблон:Better source needed Icon released a new version of "Club Cooter" on April 13, titled "Club Cooter: Reloaded".
On June 28, Icon released the single "SoCal Girl". On November 4, "Bad Ass Stripper" was released on SoundCloud and YouTube; the song is not available on streaming services due to its use of a sample from "Bad Ass Strippa" (2004) by Jentina.
Personal life
Icon is a transgender woman.[1] She currently resides in Los Angeles, California.[2]
