Education

[edit]

She was a student of The Heroes of Monte Cassino IX Lyceum in Szczecin.[5] When Sudoł was younger, she attended hip-hop and dancehall dance lessons. She is a graduate of the Elżbeta Zapendowska Song School.[8] Sudoł also passed the sound production exam.[8]

Music career

[edit]

She was working in a lot of Polish clubs (e.g. Prozak 2.0, Miłość Kredytowa, Mewa Towarzyska, Newonce Bar) as a DJ.[9] She recorded her first songs since 2015 as Sara.[6]

On 6 August 2020 she made her debut with single "Wyspy",[10] which, however, went unnoticed, as did the next one called "Zakochałam się, ale zryłeś", which she recorded with the band B24.[11]

On 16 October 2020, together with Polish rappers Żabson, Beteo and Borucci, she released the single "ULALA",[12] which was included in the Polish streaming charts of Apple Music, iTunes and Spotify.[13] Also in 2020, she sang as a guest in the song by Czech rapper Nik Tendo called "Loyal".

She gained the greatest popularity in 2021 thanks to the single "Szklanki", which reached the top of the Polish Apple Music and Spotify lists. She made a music video for the song, which by December 2021 was viewed almost 29 million times on YouTube.[14] In June, she played the lead role in Mata's music video for the song "Kiss cam (podryw roku)". On 6 August she released the single "Jungle Girl", which she recorded in cooperation with Żabson. The song was on her debut EP entitled Hulanki,[15] which was released on 23 September by Internaziomale label.[16] On 24 September she published a music video for the song "Baila Ella", which exceeded over 15 million views on YouTube.[17]

On 17 March 2022 Rybnik rapper Jacuś released the disco single "Piątek wieczór" featuring Young Leosia.[18] On 1 April 2022 rapper Smolasty released "Boję Się Kochać" featuring her.

On 21 April 2022 Young Leosia and Mata (also known as Skute Bobo) have released a single featuring three songs in support of the "Fundacja420" which fights for the legalization of marijuana in Poland.[19] On 25 April 2022 she released the single "Rok Tygrysa", the music video for which was criticized by the media as an advertisement for the Tiger energy drink.[20]

On November 20, Young Leosia announced the event Baila Ella by Young Leosia: First Night Out [21], along with a series of parties organized by Baila Ella. On November 25, she released the single Crowd[22] through her own label, Baila Ella Records,[23] marking her departure from the Internaziomale label. She featured on the eponymous album Club2020, contributing to the tracks Malibu Barbie[24] (featuring rappers Taco Hemingway, Otsochodzi, OKI, Dwa Sławy, and Gruby Mielzky) with this being released in January and February 2023.
