Laureen Rebeha Zouaï (zoo-EYE; born on March 5, 1995), better known as Lolo Zouaï,[1] is a French-born American singer. Born to a French mother and an Algerian father in Paris, France, Zouaï moved to San Francisco, California when she was three months old. She graduated from Lowell High School in 2013.[2] She released her debut album, High Highs to Low Lows, in 2019.[3][4] The album was given a 7.5 out of 10 rating by Pitchfork.[5] Zouaï was featured as "one to watch" by The Guardian in April 2019.[6] She co-wrote "Still Down" from H.E.R.'s self-titled album, which won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Album.[7]

After completing the opening slot on the North American leg of Dua Lipa's Future Nostalgia Tour, Lolo released her sophomore album PLAYGIRL in October 2022. She announced The PLAYGIRL World Tour slated for 2023. In November 2022, Zouaï was included in the Forbes 30 under 30 2023 list for musicians.[8] In an interview at the 2023 Billboard Women In Music, Lolo revealed that her contract with RCA Records has ended and she is currently an independent artist under her own record label, Keep it on the Lolo and Because Music.[9]
