YETSKII: WWE Tough Enough Champion Turned Rap Artist Drops "BIG BALOOGA" Following Hazfest 2
"That's a yank town classic" - YETSKII
DENVER, CO - May 25, 2026 - YETSKII is the recording project of Joshua Bredl, a WWE Tough Enough champion turned rap artist who played professionally in the NFL, won WWE Tough Enough Season 6 for $250,000 on national television, and spent years as the trainer to Justin Bieber, Adam Levine, and Kelly Rowland at Dogpound LA. The project released the music video for "BIG BALOOGA" on the @yetihood YouTube channel, days after its live debut at Hazfest 2 in Los Angeles on May 16, 2026. Metal Edge, which co-presented the festival, named YETSKII among the Hazfest 2 lineup in its coverage of the event - an event that Alternative Press called a celebration of "emerging artists across genres and scenes" and that also drew photo coverage from Revolver. The debut EP, "laggin off a jet," dropped March 8, 2026 on Spotify, Apple Music, and all major streaming platforms via yetihood records.
Before the music, Bredl spent ten months with Justin Bieber. Personal trainer, gym builder, on-stream presence - embedded at the Universal Studios backlot compound during the full run of Bieber's Twitch channel. That production took the 30th Annual Webby Award for Creator Launch or Drop, announced April 2026. Justin Bieber publicly tagged Bredl's handle @yetihood on his own social accounts during the run.
The video was shot on location in Los Angeles. The "BIG BALOOGA" aesthetic runs through baroque palace interiors, a Vespa, a jetski, and a beluga whale - shot on film grain, calm in tone, absurd by design.
He played professionally in the NFL. He then won WWE Tough Enough, the network's national talent competition. After that, he spent years at Dogpound LA, the private training facility in Los Angeles where professional athletes and entertainment's top tier train, as a conditioning coach for some of the most recognizable names in entertainment and professional sports, operating under Yeti Ultra. He also co-founded Portal Health AI, an AI-powered human optimization platform live at portalhealth.ai, and carries acting credits alongside Charlotte Flair and Freddy Rodriguez in the film You Lose You Die .
"I've been performing since before anyone knew my name," Bredl said. "YETSKII is just the version of that with a mic."
The six-track EP features "two tinted into," "bae pull up," "bad guy," "BIG BALOOGA," "considerate" featuring LiL Crimes, and "WUNDERBAR." A second music video for the track "bad guy" is scheduled for release three to four weeks after "BIG BALOOGA." The full project lives at @yetihood on YouTube and Instagram, where Bredl has built a following of 87,800 Instagram followers.
YETSKII is available for live bookings - openers, headline slots, and festival bills. Denver-based, with no travel overhead for Colorado and regional dates. National dates are open with travel and lodging covered. Full EPK, live performance footage from Hazfest 2, and booking inquiries at hoo.be/yetihood.
