Los Angeles-based rapper and skateboarder Na-Kel Smith emerged as a member of Odd Future with a partnership with skateboarding company Supreme, before branching into fashion design and acting. Although a part of Odd Future from the start, he made his music debut in 2013, when he delivered a verse on Tyler the Creator's "Trashwang," on his second album, Wolf. The following year, Smith and Tyshawn Jones set up their own fashion brand, Hardies. For Smith's next musical project, he paired with Earl Sweatshirt to form Hog Slaughta Boyz in 2015. He made his acting debut in 2018, after appearing in Jonah Hill's first feature film, Mid90s. The following year, he struck out as a solo artist, releasing two albums, Twothousand Nakteen and 3000nakteen. Two more LPs surfaced in quick succession, 2021's A Dream No Longer Deferred and 2022's Skullface Bonehead.
