SAILORR is breaking R&B boundaries. The 26-year-old Vietnamese-American artist hails from Jacksonville, and her black grillz pay homage to her Southeast Asian heritage and Florida upbringing.

SAILORR broke through in 2024 with “POOKIE’S REQUIEM,” which recently added Summer Walker on the remix.

She makes “pop music for the heads,” blending influences like R&B, alt, Neo-soul, and hip-hop. Her heavenly vocals are matched by her sense of humor and colorful aesthetic.
