Frederick S. Burton (born October 4, 1989), known professionally as Supa Bwe (pronounced boy/boo/buoy) is an American hip hop recording artist, producer, and audio engineer from the West Side of Chicago, Illinois.[1][2] He released his debut album, Finally Dead on December 6, 2017 featuring Xavier Omar, Saba and more. The album premiered at number 3 on iTunes and has received critical acclaim from the likes of XXL, Hype Best, and many more.[3][4]

Early life

Supa Bwe was raised by his English-born mother who is Black, Native American and Scottish.[5] He attributes his music education to the music she exposed him to as a young child, including Punk and Metal bands such as Rage Against the Machine and Korn.[5] His father is attributed with introducing him to Hip Hop.[5]  In an August 2016 interview in XXL Magazine he described the effect of these early influences, "I grew up listening to a wide array of music. My mom is from the United Kingdom and my dad is from the projects. I got a lot of punk influences and alternative rock, a lot of things from the 1990s. My pop, all that hood [stuff]. He loves Master P, Busta Rhymes, [stuff] like that. I got an introduction to both worlds." [5]
