INK
Summary
Superstar songwriter and genre-defying artist Ink is a lauded creative force, celebrated for her work on seismic cultural projects like Beyonce's GRAMMY® Award-winning COWBOY CARTER, RENAISSANCE and Kendrick Lamar's GNX – including co-writing multi-week No. 1 smash “Luther." Most recently, the latter earned Ink 3 nominations at the 2026 GRAMMYs: Album of the Year, Record of the Year, and Song of the Year. With her debut EP BIG BUSKIN’ released in October 2025, including singles "Turquoise Cowboy," “Hoedown,” and “Sweet Tea,” Rolling Stone proclaimed, "Ink is ready to fully dive into her own artistry." Making waves and more music on the horizon, along with a debut performance at Stagecoach, 2026 marks the official rise of a powerful new voice in American music. Born in Germany and raised in Georgia, Ink got her start busking on the streets before going on to collaborate with legends like Trae tha Truth and Nipsey Hussle. Her music – rooted in country, Southern rap and classic Americana – is as rich and bold as her story.
