Cobrah

Clara Blom Christensen (born October 15, 1996), professionally known as Cobrah (stylized in all caps) is a Swedish rapper, singer, songwriter and producer.

Prior to releasing music, Christensen worked as an elementary school music teacher.

In 2017, she moved to Berlin in order to find music producers to work with.

After moving to Berlin, Christensen connected with various music producers and began experimenting with numerous types of music.

She eventually stuck with the music producers Hannes Roover and Gusten Galqvist, the former of whom she met in Sweden before moving to Berlin.

She started using the name COBRAH in November 2018, with the release of her debut single "IDFKA".

She released her debut single, "IDFKA" (acronym for "I Don't Fucking Know Anymore"), in 2018.

That same year, Charli XCX brought her out on stage.

Following the 2019 venture, she released another EP in 2021, eponymously titled "COBRAH".

This EP spawned the single "Good Puss", which later in 2022 got a remix featuring Cupcakke.

At the age of four, she moved from the urban part of the city to the suburban community.

Christensen was a flautist.

In high school, she studied musical theatre.

As a teenager, she expressed adoration for goth clothing, but her mother didn't. This made her hide these pieces of clothing in her book bag and change into them before going to school.

In a 2020 interview about her debut single she said, "“Like, honestly, everything… That song just keeps giving me a new meaning every week. It was about growing up and having a very ambivalent relationship with sex and romance. As I think most teenagers do, especially teenage girls that are looking for a place of belonging. It's easy to be taken advantage of, and it's very hard when you're a kid to realise when it happens.” She released more singles throughout 2019 to promote the upcoming release of her debut extended play, "ICON". The singles include "Wet" and "U Know Me". After the promotion cycle of ICON, she released the single "Tea" in collaboration with British radio station Rinse FM and performed with Charli XCX.

She released the single "Debut" in 2020, which was followed by critical acclaim.

Paper Magazine called it "no exception" and did an interview with her prior to release.

She released her self-titled extended play on 21 May 2021.

She followed up the release of "COBRAH" with the "Good PusS" remix, featuring Cupcakke.
