South African emo rap sensation Youngboi OG has returned with a raw and reflective new project titled Sins & Serotonin, released on April 18, 2025. Known offstage as Geraldo Gershwin Saal, the Aggeneys-based rapper, singer, and songwriter continues to evolve his sound and storytelling with this emotionally charged EP.
Blending elements of emo rap and pop rap, Sins & Serotonin is a deep dive into the duality of pain and healing, love and regret, and the ongoing search for peace amidst chaos. With confessional lyrics and melancholic melodies, Youngboi OG opens up more than ever, creating an atmospheric and honest record that resonates with listeners on a deeply personal level. This release follows his meteoric rise in 2024, when his breakout single “How can I love?” captured hearts across the globe.

On Sins & Serotonin, Youngboi OG explores the weight of past mistakes and the longing for emotional balance. The EP features atmospheric production, haunting hooks, and verses that lay bare his inner turmoil.
