Emerson Vernon, a.k.a. Wolfi (formerly “Young Luv”) is an American artist from Indianapolis, Indiana. He grew up under the influence of mostly pop and electronic music, and began his musical journey as a freshman in high school.

There, he formed a rock band with his drumline friends and began writing songs. As the band began to grow, the genre lean towards metalcore, which Vernon was not interested in, so he quit the band to pursue electronic music production and posted music under his nickname “Emosahn”.

During the process of writing his second electronic album, Vernon found more pleasure in singing the vocal demos he would write for his feature artists, and decided to start a side project where he would sing his own songs and post them under the name “Young Luv”.

The Young Luv project soon became Vernon’s main focus as his audience began to grow quickly. Vernon released his debut mixtape “Grey” in December of 2016. In March of 2017 he released his debut album “Black”. Shortly after the release of “Black” he began posting cover videos on Twitter and gained a dense following because of it, and in turn gained attention for his music.

In July of 2017, Vernon sought perfection for his music, and changed his name to “wolfi” as it better portrayed his style and music. As “Black” was a big hit with his following he plans to release a deluxe version in the fall of 2017, which will be remastered, include track commentary, and three new songs, including a collaboration with acoustic artist SayWeCanFly.
