Source-derived summary

Ratthaphong Phoorisit (Thai: รัธพงศ์ ภูรีสิทธิ์; born 24 October 1998), known professionally as Youngohm (Thai: ยังโอม), is a Thai rapper, singer, and songwriter known for his hit songs like "Doo White", "Choey Moei", and "Thararat." He is one of the leading figures in Thailand's hip-hop scene, blending catchy melodies with street-inspired lyrics.

Early life

Ratthaphong Phoorisit was born on 24 October 1998 in Bangkok. He studied at Wat That Thong School. He was later accepted as a student in the performing arts program at the Faculty of Fine Arts, Srinakharinwirot University, but decided to leave after only half a day of studying.

Career

During his early secondary school years, he began listening to hip-hop music and writing his own rap lyrics. By high school, he started recording songs in studios and posting them on social media. The stage name "Youngohm" was inspired by Western rappers who often used the word "Young" before their names, which he then combined with his nickname "Ohm".

He and his friends participated in the second season of Rap is Now, a Thai battle rap competition show, and reached the round of 32 contestants. In 2016, during the show's third season, Youngohm returned to compete again and reached the final eight contestants. Although he did not win, his performance helped him gain recognition within the Thai rap community.

Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

“Youngohm” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Youngohm, Thai and rapper provides the most credible route into that argument.

Evidence profile

Vocabulary and entity names are the principal evidence signals here, because they determine the precision of every later search. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 6, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q66296906. 1 of 1 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1998 and 2016.

Critical limits

A concise general-reference account can conceal disagreements about scope, terminology or the weight assigned to individual sources. The source lead contains qualifying language; that uncertainty should survive quotation, summary and reuse. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
