Destroy Lonely

About

Also known as: Bobby Sandimanie III

Destroy Lonely sits at a genuinely strange crossroads: his influences include Crystal Castles, Deftones, and The Cure alongside Lil Wayne, Young Thug, and Playboi Carti, and that collision shows up in the music. The Atlanta rapper, born Bobby Sandimanie III, signed to Carti's Opium label in 2021 and quickly built a reputation for atmospheric, twinkly production layered under a voice that shifts cadence unpredictably, with humorous lyrics woven in where you least expect them. His fifth mixtape No Stylist landed on the Billboard 200 in 2022, then his debut album If Looks Could Kill pushed him to number 18 on that same chart in 2023. His second studio album Love Lasts Forever went even further, peaking at number 10 on the Billboard 200 and hitting number 1 on the Top R&B/Hip Hop Albums chart. He stays busy in the Opium orbit, frequently trading features with labelmates Ken Carson and Homixide Gang, and released a music video for "Jumanji" in 2025.
