Meiling Chen

Meiling Lidewij Chen (b. 2nd January, 1981) is a Kuboian-based rapper of Chinese, Dutch and Spanish heritage. She began her career at the age of fifteen when she formed the lipstick rap duo Fizzie Pop with her half-sister Mina van Trease. She has since spawned a solo career.

Biography
Chen was born in the Dominion of Kuboia on 2nd January, 1981 in an unnamed village which is now part of Hausekeep, North Kuboia. Her mother is a semi-retired Spanish-Dutch political activist. Her father is of Chinese origin, whose family migrated to Kuboia in the 1960s - he is currently working as a technical administrator in Gutstone, East Kuboia. Through her mother, she is the niece of Antonia Morales and the younger half-sister of Mina van Trease. She and Trease formed the hip hop group Fizzie Pop in 1996, though the group has since disbanded. In 2001, Chen founded the label Rhythmic Records with Trease.

Sexual orientation, relationships and family
In 2002, Chen said in an interview that was bisexual. She later stated in 2022 that she now identifies as pansexual.

In January 2007, Chen sparked outrage in the media after it was revealed she was dating her sixteen year-old cousin, Vex Morales-Vilet. The two ended their relationship later in November that year. Chen's friends and family acknowledged that she often hung around sixteen and seventeen year-old boys despite being in her mid-twenties at the time.

In November 2007, shortly after ending her relationship with Morales-Vilet, Chen started dating Sky Arents, who she had been friends with for several years. Together, they had two daughters; Luckie (b. 2009) and Marine (b. 2010). Although the two never married, Chen and Arents remained in a long-term relationship before separating in mid-2020. Speaking shortly after their breakup, Arents noted that Chen was very controlling, and would regularly abuse and threaten him. Chen admitted shortly afterwards that she would occasionally hit Arents. In November 2022, their daughter Luckie revealed that she and her younger sister were living with their father, and have "barely seen" Chen since their parents' breakup.

Religion
Chen has noted that most of her paternal family practice Buddhism and that her paternal grandmother tried to "force it on [her]". She has cited indifference to religion on several occasions.
