Baby Weight
Genre: House
Origin: United States
Baby Weight, aka Cara Eser, is a DJ, producer, and label boss from Washington, D.C. who has gained notoriety for her “chunky” style of dance music. Her genre bending sound, dynamic DJ sets, and advocacy for more inclusivity within dance music has earned her the respect and support of peers like Walker & Royce, The Blessed Madonna, Claude VonStroke, Claptone, Shiba San, Justin Martin, DJ Sliink, LP Giobbi, VNSSA, Kevin Knapp, Noizu, and Idris Elba among others.
In 2017, Eser started the label Chub Rub which she uses to showcase emerging sounds from under the radar artists across the house music spectrum. This has led to a cult following curated around quirkiness, community, and diversity. In 2019, her debut album ‘Phases’ peaked in multiple Top 10 charts on Beatport which spawned an equally popular remix album the following year.
In 2020, she publicly came out as transgender citing a need to address her transition as an artist as well as in her personal life. Later that year, her track “Rave Police” reached #1 paving the way to a wider audience. In 2021, Eser was featured in Mixmag’s ‘Impact’ series leading to debuts on BBC Radio 6, Diplo’s Revolution on SiriusXM, and appearances at multiple festivals including Dirtybird Campout, EDC Vegas, Hard Summer, and Firefly Music Festival.
In 2022, Baby Weight released “House Princess” featuring Karnage Kills on Femme House’s first ever compilation to both commercial and critical acclaim — including a feature in Calvin Klein’s Pride campaign for that year. With an undeniable energy and music steeped in emotional integrity, Baby Weight is quickly becoming an industry darling in electronic music.
