About the artist
Giselle, born Uchinaga Aeri, is a Japanese singer and rapper known as a member of the South Korean girl group aespa under SM Entertainment. She was revealed as a member in October 2020 and debuted with the group later that year, quickly becoming known for her sharp rap delivery and trilingual fluency in Japanese, Korean, and English. Before her SM training, she attended an international school in Tokyo, which shaped the multilingual identity she later brought to her performances and lyrics.
Within aespa, Giselle stands out for her distinct rap tone and stage presence, contributing verses that anchor the group's blend of hyperpop, R&B, and hard-hitting hip hop production. Her rap sections often carry a confident, playful edge that contrasts with the group's more melodic vocal lines, giving aespa's sound its dynamic push and pull between rap and singing.
Beyond her group work, Giselle has explored solo and collaborative material that leans further into R&B and pop textures, showcasing versatility outside the aespa concept. Her ability to move fluidly between languages and genres has made her a recognizable presence in K-pop's current generation of idol-rappers.
