Niccolo Terre, known professionally as Bunii (stylized in all lowercase; pronounced "booni"), is an American singer, songwriter, and producer.

Early life

Niccolo Terre was born in Los Angeles to Filipino parents[1] and later moved to Wisconsin. Bunii grew up in a musically active family, with music being present on both sides of his family. In an interview with The Fader, Bunii reported that his father played musical instrumentals and that he was frequently exposed to music in his household during childhood.[2]

Career

Bunii began making music independently in his early teens, initially teaching himself FL Studio to produce beats for other rappers[3] at the age of 15.[4] In 2023, he transitioned into a solo artist.[4] Based in Los Angeles, Bunii started uploading music in July 2024.[3] In 2024, Bunii gained breakthrough traction with the release of his single "Saint".[4] He began releasing music regularly after experiencing his first track exceeding 1,000 streams, which motivated increased output.[3]

He received early attention from SoundCloud's team while his account had a relatively small number of followers. He operated as a self-sufficient artist, handling multiple stages of production independently. He received multiple SoundCloud-related features, including Track of the Day selections and editorial playlist placements.[3] Bunii collaborated with and worked actively alongside artist Ayowitty, after initially discovering his music through online repost channels.[5]

Bunii developed his music during late adolescence, while still in high school, shortly before graduating.[5] In late 2024, he started to learn guitar. His career development was primarily shaped through online platforms rather than traditional live performance circuits.[2] In January 2025, Bunii released the EP 8:30 Is Too Early.[6] In February 2025, he released his EP Barberry Lane, which received promotional visibility, including billboard advertising.[3] In a column by Kieran Press-Reynolds, Bunii, along with Ayowitty, were grouped alongside other notable SoundCloud indie artists, including Jaydes and Wifiskeleton.[5] Later that year, he released his debut album Bastard. After releasing Bastard, Bunii stated he started to work on his next album, titled Virgilio.[2] In March 2026, Bunii released his second album, Virgilio, through Warner Records,[4] after being signed to the label earlier that month.[7] The album was released to pay tribute to his family.[2]

Musical style and influences

Bunii's influences include Japanese rock bands such as Susquatch and The Cabs, also influenced by early 2000s pop-punk and emo bands, including Paramore, My Chemical Romance, and American Football.[3][5][2] His musical influences of genres include emo, indie rock, and Japanese rock.[2] His music output includes experimentation with structure, including the use of very short tracks (sub-60-second ideas) alongside full-length songs.[3] He stated in an interview with The Fader that his musical style developed from music he had been exposed to over time, rather than from a deliberate decision to pursue a specific genre.[2] He also has a pluggnb influence.[6]

Bunii self-produces his music and commonly uses the producer tag "Bastards!" in his songs. His solo work is described as guitar-driven, incorporating math rock-influenced structures.[5] His earlier production style was influenced by pluggnb and internet-based beat culture, particularly artists such as Autumn, and by educational content such as Genius' "Deconstruction" video series. During a period in his career, Bunii was influenced by jazz standards. One of his compositions, "Grand Mal", incorporated elements inspired by "Blue Bossa."[5] His production style is described as fast-paced and collage-like, focusing on capturing immediate ideas rather than highly polished studio construction. His music on Virgilio includes lyrics that address both personal experiences and external subjects, compared to the more inward-focused themes of earlier releases.[2]
