Compton-bred rapper Boogie has shared his new single and video, “Self Destruction.” Released via Shady Records/Interscope Records, “Self Destruction” is the latest track to show his distinct talent for making music that’s both melancholy and joyfully uplifting.
Added Boogie about the video: “I miss fun videos and always wanted to see niggas have super powers!“

Having signed to Shady Records last fall, Boogie is now at work on his full-length debut for the label. Due out this summer, the project promises to be his most introspective effort yet.
“Self Destruction” arrives as the follow-up to Boogie’s recent singles “Came Up” and “Violence” ft. Masego, both released last December. Upon the premiere of the singles, Pitchfork hailed Boogie as “one of the West Coast’s most promising young rappers.”
Born Anthony Dixson, Boogie got his start in music after joining a church choir at the urging of his mother. He soon started writing lyrics and crafting melodies, and later enrolled in Long Beach City College to study recording. With his debut mixtape Thirst 48 arriving in June 2014, Boogie had his breakthrough with The Reach—a 2015 mixtape that spawned the Jahlil Beats-produced “Oh My,” whose viral success cemented him as one of the most refreshingly honest new voices emerging from the West Coast. Releasing Thirst 48 Pt. II in 2016, Boogie found his raw, unfiltered lyricism earning praise from artists like Rihanna, Kendrick Lamar, and Eminem, who signed him to Shady Records in October 2017.
