Cupcakke was born Elizabeth Eden Harris on May 31, 1997 in Chicago, Illinois. She spent ages 7-11 in Chicago's homeless shelters, and attended school with other Chicago rappers such as Lil Reese and Chief Keef. At the age of 10 she began writing poetry and performing it to her Christian pastors. 

She was 15 when she released her first music video, "Gold Digger" to her Youtube Channel in August of 2012. The video went viral but was ultimately deleted due to her age. Her Youtube account, however, continued to amass over 300,000 subscribers.

In October of 2015 she released the song "Vagina" and it's official music video on Youtube, and in November she released "Deepthroat." Those songs were compiled for a mixtape release titled Cum Cake in February 2016. A second mixtape, S.T.D (Shelters to Deltas) was released in June 2016. Her first studio album, Audacious, was released in October of 2016 with "Cumshot", the first single, released in February 2017. A second studio album, Queen Elizabitch, was released March 31, 2017.
