YKNIECE (born Shanice Cameron on July 30, 2003) is a rapidly rising American rapper and songwriter based in Atlanta, Georgia. She achieved widespread viral prominence in early 2025 following her standout feature on the hit underground hip-hop track "WHIM WHAMIEE" with rapper Big Pluto. Known for her high-octane delivery, punchy verses, and vibrant internet personality, she has quickly cemented herself as a dominant new voice in the modern trap and Southern rap scene.

Before stepping into the recording booth, she worked in security. After her verse on "WHIM WHAMIEE" exploded across TikTok, her career accelerated into major label spaces. She maintains millions of monthly streams on the YKNIECE Spotify Profile, heavily supported by a sequence of top-tier industry collaborations.

Following her commercial breakout, she has transitioned into a highly requested live act, earning a spot on Billboard's 10 Hottest Female Rappers of 2025 Staff List. She has performed high-energy festival sets, notably hitting the stage at Rolling Loud, and frequently tours alongside established artists like Boosie Badazz and Finesse2tymes.
