CL is best known as the former leader/vocalist/rapper of YG Family female K-pop group 2NE1. While she was born in Seoul, she spent a majority of her childhood in France & Japan.

In 2015, CL began reaching into the American market with notable collaborations with artists like Skrillex and RiFF RAFF. Her unique style and vision had her pinned as one of the key players in the future “convergence culture” of pop music (international crossovers and collaborations).

After a brief hiatus from the music industry, her long-anticipated comeback began in November 2019 with teasers being released for a new project named 사랑의 이름으로 (In The Name Of Love).

Her musical inspirations include: Queen, Lauryn Hill, Madonna and former 1TYM member and producer Teddy Park.
