Lil Mariko leans sideways against a vivid red, studded wall, wearing a sheer black garment embroidered with intricate patterns and beadwork. Dramatic lighting highlights the glossy shine of their lips and the delicate detailing of the outfit, creating a bold, high‑contrast portrait.

Lil Mariko

Brooklyn, NY

Katherine “Lil Mariko” Zhang is a Chinese‑Japanese‑American rapper who turns hyperpop, trap metal, and electronic chaos into unhinged anthems. After screaming her way to virality with the song “Where’s My Juul??,” she’s refined her razor‑sharp aesthetic and meme‑born energy into potent sonic whiplash. Don’t miss her debut Canadian performance at Sled Island.
