SOPHIE died at the age of 34 from an accidental fall in Athens, Greece, in January 2021. The trans hitmaker released the lone studio album of her lifetime, Oil of Every Pearl’s Un-Insides, in June 2018. For the project, she was nominated for Best Dance/Electronic Album at the 2019 Grammy Awards. During her lifetime, she also produced music for the likes of Charli XCX, Madonna, Vince Staples, Kim Petras, LIZ, and MØ, among others.
Very little of SOPHIE’s music has been released since her death. Among her posthumous works available to the public are the Jlin collaboration “Jsloipnhie” and production for Hyd and Basside.
