After writing his first rap at age seven, INKABEE exploded onto the Australian music scene in December 2022, at just 11 years old, with his debut track ‘Beat the Odds’. The Noongar Wongi hip-hop MC from Boorloo (Perth) Western Australia, quickly caught the industry’s attention for his undeniable talent and natural ability.

‘Beat the Odds’ saw huge success – co-written and recorded alongside his father, award-winning MC and activist FLEWNT – the track attracted a lot of press and radio plays nationally and was also nominated for two West Australian Music awards.

INKABEE, now 12-years-old, has since released solo track ‘Saved by the Bell’ (2023), ‘No Warning’ alongside his uncle, MC JJ Vacant (2024), and ‘We Dat Good’ with FLEWNT (2023).

Before its release, the father-son duo originally performed ‘We Dat Good’ for Australian radio broadcaster triple j’s Bars of Steel segment – with the clip of the pair rapping live-on-air becoming a viral sensation and garnering over ten million views on TikTok alone.

‘We Dat Good’ has since struck international attention with INKABEE and FLEWNT performing it on US hit tv program America’s Got Talent – broadcasted on NBC to over 12 million viewers – with duo receiving high praise from all four judges and Simon Cowell stating, ‘We have just seen what I call a moment. Just the way you perform together, it was mesmerising.’ INKABEE and FLEWNT are currently still in the competition.

Over his impressive career spanning not yet two-years, INKABEE has performed at major music, cultural, and sporting events across Australia. And alongside some of the biggest names in the Australian music scene, including Barkaa, JK47, Kobie Dee, JMilla and 3% (to name a few).

INKABEE made his performance debut at Flewnt's Boorloo Block Party at Perth Festival in early 2023. Displaying a natural love for the stage, with high energy and charisma, INKABEE was soon invited to showcase at the internationally renowned SXSW Texas festival (2024) at the Australian pavilion and for a G’Day Australia event. As well as at SXSW Sydney (2023), which saw Chance the Rapper attend his showcase and introduce him as ‘the future of Australian hip-hop’.

INKABEE has performed at VIVID Sydney at the iconic Sydney Opera House (2024) and Carriageworks (2023). He has also performed sporting events such as the Indigenous round of the AFL for the Fremantle Dockers at Perth’s Optus stadium in front of 60,000 people (and broadcasted nationally), and World Cup Rugby 7’s finals at Perth’s HBF stadium in front of 20,000 people (and broadcasted internationally).

2024 saw INKABEE headline Flewnt's Boorloo Block Party at Perth Festival as well as the rural all-ages spin-off Block Party Boom – his first headlining tour across the state to Broome, Geraldton and Busselton.

INKABEE continues to work in community alongside his father FLEWNT, including performances at Yarrapay Festival in Arnhem Land, a surprise visit to Bankia Hill Detention Centre (WA), and school workshops across the state. 

In 2023 and 2024 INKABEE partnered with JD Sports and Nike Australia.
