Filo.Music | Billie Eilish: How She Built An Empire Of Grammys And Plays

The princess of dark pop Billie eilish is the new protagonist of Filo.Music And in this chapter we explain how he built an empire of Grammys and plays in just a few years.

Billie Eilish Pirate Baird O’Connell He was born on December 18, 2001 in Los Angeles, California. Well centennial and Sagittarian, it seems that since she was little she knew that she came to the world to give art.

The daughter of an actress and a musician and screenwriter, she grew up studying at home with her older brother Phineas, who would later become her producer.

The family had a particular rule that gave free rein to creativity: if you were making music, be it playing an instrument, singing or producing, you couldn’t be put to sleep. And obviously, Billie, who almost learned to sing before she learned to speak, by age 7 was already writing and performing her own songs.

His first viral hit was recorded at 13. It was called ‘Ocean Eyes’ and it was uploaded to SoundCloud in November 2015, where he collected millions of plays. By his 15 years he had already signed with Interscope Records, the label that groups from Eminem to Selena Gomez (and our Khea, save), and received very good reviews.

Things started to escalate but set sail: in 2017 he wrote a topic for “13 reasons”, the Netflix series and in August 2017 he released a EP titled “dont smile at me” in which he grouped several singles, among them “ocean eyes” and “i dont wanna be you anymore”.

For a year, Phineas and Billie worked on “When we all asleep, where do we go?”, Their first album released in March 2019. With it, Billie became:

• the first artist born in the 2000s to have a n1 album in the United States
• youngest woman to have a n1 album in the UK
• Youngest artist to win album of the year at the Grammys at age 17, passing Taylor Swift
• and the second artist in the history of those awards to win four general categories in the same night

In 2020 she became the youngest artist in history to write and record a James Bond song for the movie called “No time to die.” He also released “Lo vas a forget”, a song for the series Euphoria with Rosalía, and another series of singles. Until in October 2020, he announced that he was working on a new album.

2021 brought with it a loosening of the pandemic in the United States, therefore, live shows again and two more Grammys: one for the James Bond theme and another for his single “Everything I Wanted” for Record of the Year. And it was handed to him by none other than Ringo Starr.

Not only in age millions of people managed to feel identified, but also in the processes that Billie went through and made public, violating before the world so that the message reaches: you are not the only one.

Nourished from the cradle by the family he grew up with and by the musical genres he listened to since childhood, his eclecticism meets his curiosity to give us an exquisite result, completed by the productions of his brother Phineas.

Just like Bizarrap, Billie taught that from her piece she could create a very successful album and worthy of 5 Grammys. And he’s only 19 years old.
