Early life

As a child, Mira played the guitar and later learned to play the keyboard and piano.[1] He cites Pharrell Williams as an influence,[2] and describes his musical style as "melodic" and "ambient".[3] He graduated from James River High School in 2019.[4]

Career

Mira first joined the Internet Money collective in 2015. In 2017, he, along with Taz Taylor and Dex Duncan, got his first major placement in XXXTentacion's Trippie Redd assisted "Fuck Love". It entered at number 41 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and eventually peaked at number 28 after X's death. On March 29 2019, the song became the most streamed song ever on the streaming platform SoundCloud with 206 million streams. It was also certified 10x Platinum by the RIAA. Mira began working with Juice WRLD after becoming acquainted with him through their mutual friend and fellow producer, Sidepce. "Lucid Dreams" was created after Mira produced the instrumental (which samples the guitar melody from Sting’s song "Shape of My Heart") and sent it to Juice Wrld, who recorded vocals.[5] The song has since peaked on the Billboard Hot 100 at number 2, sold over 14 million certified units worldwide and was certified 5-times platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.

Mira produced eight songs from WRLD's debut studio album, Goodbye & Good Riddance,[6] and four from his second, Death Race for Love, including the lead single "Robbery".[7]

He was accused of plagiarizing "Lean Wit Me" (performed by Juice Wrld),[8] which he denied and later demonstrated the production of the song through a video published by his Internet Money record label on YouTube.[9] Mira said "I created Juice WRLD’s ‘Lean Wit Me’ beat from scratch. I played the guitar live in the beat, I programmed the drums and then I sent the beat for Juice to record to and make the song — just like how we always do."[10]

In 2016, together with Taz Taylor, he co-founded the producer group and record label Internet Money, which has a joint venture with Alamo and Interscope Records.[1] He also produced Lil Tecca's "Ransom" with Taz Taylor, which peaked at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100. Later that year, he worked with Post Malone on the track "On the Road" (featuring Meek Mill and Lil Baby), off his album, Hollywood's Bleeding, peaking at #22 on the Billboard Hot 100. [11]
