Angelina Dehn (born March 22, 1995), better known by her stage name Ängie, is a pop singer and songwriter. Born in Nynäshamn, Sweden, Dehn rose to fame in mid-2016 with the controversial song "Smoke Weed Eat Pussy".

Early life and career

Ängie initially snapchatted clips of herself rapping to Swedish indie group Death Team, in 2016. The recordings went on to receive attention from the group, and it offered to produce her first single, "Smoke Weed Eat Pussy", a song she had written on the same year. Death Team produced the track and it was released on 2016, alongside a music video.[1][2] The song became a commercial success and the video went viral on Youtube, with Ängie getting a record deal with Universal.[3] Ängie was much acclaimed for her soft, dreamy vocals, as well for the artsy music video and for the controversial lyrics.[4][5]

In the following years, Ängie went on to release two more singles: "Housewife Spliffin'", in 2016, and "Spun", in 2017. The songs achieved commercial success as well with music videos released for both, and she soon revealed plans to release a full album.[6] Meanwhile, Ängie became known for her controversial lyrics and music videos, and her popularity grew enormously internationally; her main fanbase is in Brazil.[7][8][9]

After taking a break from social media, Ängie released a new song, "Dope", on February 14th, 2018. The video followed on February 21th, 2018.[10] On the same month, she announced the release of her debut album, "Suicide Since 1995", due April 6th through Universal; "Dope" was later revealed as the first single taken of the album, implying that the previous singles didn't make to the final cut.[11]

Dehn grew up in the town of Nynäshamn, Sweden.[2] She struggled with mental health in her adolescence and found relief in cannabis.[12]
