Poppy (musical artist & graphic novelist) Add a review

Moriah Rose Pereira (born January 1, 1995), known professionally as Poppy and formerly as That Poppy, is an American singer, songwriter, musician, and YouTuber. She earned recognition for her performance art videos on YouTube beginning in 2014, in which she played an uncanny valley-like android satirizing Internet culture and modern society. She collaborated with Titanic Sinclair during this period, and ended the partnership in 2019 after accusing him of emotional abuse. She launched the web series Improbably Poppy in 2024. She is known for her experimentation and versatility within her artistry, public image and music.

Poppy's first two albums, which mostly featured pop influences, sold moderately. She achieved mainstream success after shifting to heavy metal and industrial rock with her third album, I Disagree (2020), which became her first entry on the Billboard 200. Its single "Bloodmoney" was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance, making Poppy the first solo female artist to be nominated in the category. After an experimental period, she experienced a critical resurgence with her sixth album, Negative Spaces (2024). Also in 2024, she featured on Bad Omens's "V.A.N" and Knocked Loose's "Suffocate", with the latter earning her a second nomination for the Grammy for Best Metal Performance. Her seventh album, Empty Hands (2026), became her second entry on the Billboard 200.
