Kyle Thomas Harvey (born May 18, 1993), known mononymously as Kyle (stylized in all caps) and SuperDuperKyle (formerly known as K.i.D, an acronym for Kyle is Determined), is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, and actor from Ventura, California. He is best known for his 2016 breakout single "iSpy" (featuring Lil Yachty), which peaked at number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. Signed to Indie-Pop and Atlantic Records, Harvey is also known for his association with the SuperDuperCrew which consists of Brick, Jesus, and Maxx.

Harvey has collaborated with artists such as Waywo, Kehlani, Lil Yachty, G-Eazy, Chance the Rapper, Miguel, MadeinTYO, Yuna, and Ty Dolla Sign, among others. Some of his songs in addition to "iSpy" include "Keep It Real", "Doubt It", "King Wavy" (featuring G-Eazy), and his 2018 hit single "Playinwitme" (featuring Kehlani). In 2015, Rolling Stone named him as "one of the ten artists you need to know".

His commercial mixtapes Beautiful Loser and Smyle were released in 2013 and 2015, respectively. Harvey's debut studio album Light of Mine was released in 2018 to positive reviews and reached within the top-30 of the Billboard 200.

Harvey made his acting debut in the 2018 Netflix original film The After Party. He also released a single from the film "Moment" (featuring Wiz Khalifa). His second album See You When I Am Famous was released on July 17, 2020.

Harvey was born in the Reseda neighborhood of Los Angeles, California, to his parents who were married. During separation, he and his two siblings resided in a home of eight family members. He grew up one hour away in Ventura. He stated that he has a speech impediment and that during his youth he was bullied because of it. Harvey attended Ventura High School and regularly took part in drama classes which helped his confidence largely.

He started singing at the age of 6 and was writing and performing his own songs by elementary school. Harvey started rapping when he was about 13 years old and began recording music after hearing Kid Cudi's Man on the Moon: The End of Day. Harvey's first songs were recorded on PreSonus' Studio One recording software using his aunt's computer while in high school.

Kyle started releasing mixtapes such as Senior Year, Second Semester, FxL, Super Duper, and K.i.D under the monikers KiddKash and K.i.D starting in 2009 to 2012.

In 2013, he released his commercial debut mixtape Beautiful Loser.
