She later gained mainstream attention for collaborating with other hyperpop artists such as Slayyyter and That Kid before taking a hiatus from music starting in 2018, during which her music rose to further popularity on social media. Following her return to music in 2023, she appeared on singles by Joey Valence & Brae and Odetari, among others, and in 2025, released her third studio album, Precum.

Early life Erotica was born on August 11, 1996, to Sally Harrington. She is a transgender woman

She has released several songs, albums, mixtapes and extended plays as several personas and aliases between 2007 and 2014.

Career

Erotica began uploading under the Ayesha Erotica alias in 2015. She rose to prominence with her single SoundCloud releases while living in Huntington Beach, California, before releasing her debut album as Ayesha Erotica, Big Juicy, in 2016.

She met singer-songwriter Slayyyter through Twitter, and Erotica soon sent her the beat to what would become Slayyyter's 2018 song "BFF". Together, the two released several other songs on SoundCloud, including the That Kid collaboration "Dial Tone", which Steffanee Wang of Nylon praised as a "DIY triumph" and Papers Brendan Wetmore described as a breakout hit for all three artists. Several of the collaborations between Erotica and Slayyyter were included on Slayyyter's debut self-titled mixtape released the following year, with Erotica credited under the alias Ms. Cheeseburger.

Erotica produced the majority of songs on That Kid's debut mixtape, Crush, which was released in April 2020. A mashup of "Yummy" with the song "Righteous" by Mo Beats also found success on TikTok in 2023 due to the virality of videos by influencer Sabrina Bahsoon taken on the London Underground, who became known as the Tube Girl, in which they were featured. In July 2023, Erotica appeared in a livestream with singer Chase Icon, officially announcing her return to music. Erotica was featured on the Kets4eki single "Rock Your Body" in February 2024 and on the Odetari single "Break a Neck" in April 2024. For The New York Times podcast Popcast, Jon Caramanica said that the latter song signaled the potential for a "slow mainstreaming of Ayesha Erotica". She was featured on the "Badder" remix of Joey Valence & Brae's song "The Baddest", which was released in July 2024 and became popular on TikTok. It was later featured on the deluxe version of the duo's album, No Hands, which was released in September 2024. Erotica contributed production to Chase Icon's debut studio album, Icon Baby, which was released in March 2025. Her collaborative single with singer Creep-P, "Bite Me", was released in July 2025.

In February 2025, Erotica released the single "Condom". Her first studio album since her hiatus, Precum, was released August 11, 2025.

Artistic style Pitchforks Ashley Bardhan described Erotica as "a prolific hyperpop producer" whose music with Slayyyter was "half-joking and brashly sexual", while Cat Zhang of Pitchfork also identified her music as hyperpop and "airhead pop" and wrote that her "bubblegum tracks" contained "saucy, often scandalous quips" and "invocations of Juicy Couture and UGG boots". Katherine Gillespie of Paper described Erotica's music as "nostalgic and futuristic at the same time". For PopMatters, Nick Malone called Erotica "an online underground legend" with "playfully hypersexual imagery" and "a formidable back-catalog of pop-rap bangers indebted to the music of the mid-2000s".

For Paper, Michael Love Michael wrote that Erotica "seems to come from nowhere but the dark web", while Brittany Menjivar of Passion of the Weiss similarly described her as "elusive" and as having "existed in the internet shadows since her 2015 debut". Menjivar added that Erotica's lyrics often use "crude storytelling to comment on social issues" and "religious imagery with a refreshing lack of self-seriousness". Slayyyter has compared Erotica's production style to that of the Neptunes, and stated that Erotica helped guide her music in its early stages. In August 2026, Pitchfork ranked Erotica's song "Literal Legend" number 28 on its list of "The 37 Greatest Electroclash Songs of All Time", with the site's Walden Green writing: "Name-checking Lindsay Lohan in one breath and Björk the next, Erotica birthed a new high-low canon. There may be no Kim Petras, no Dorian Electra, and certainly no Slayyyter—who bought some [of] her earliest beats off Erotica—without her."

Personal life Erotica was in a relationship with Brendon "Brendino" Jones from mid-2016 until May 2023. From July 2023 until mid-2024 she was also in a relationship with American rapper Thomas "Yvncc" Roberts.
