William Henry Victor Schultz (born January 28, 1997), better known by his stage name Sueco or SuecoTheChild, is an American rapper and singer-songwriter from Los Angeles.[1] His breakthrough came from his 2019 single "Fast", which was certified as platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America in July 2022 after going viral on TikTok.[4] His 2021 song "Paralyzed" also gained considerable attention, reaching a peak positions of 65th Billboard Hot 100 and 109th on the Global 200 and being certified gold by the RIAA.[5][6]

He was signed by Atlantic Records after the success of "Fast" on SoundCloud and TikTok.[7] The song later appeared on his EP Miscreant.[8] In 2021, he was featured on Papa Roach's single "Swerve" alongside Fever 333.[9] In 2022, he released his debut full-length album It Was Fun While It Lasted, featuring the single "Paralyzed". The album was more pop-punk oriented compared to the trap and hip-hop style on his previous work.[1]
