The Villain
Originally from Alabama, now rooted in Austin TX, Lynn the Bad Guy is an independent hip-hop artist who refuses to be put in a box. Her sound pulls from rap, R&B and drill, held together by lyrics that are sharp, confident and deeply personal.
She stopped giving a damn about naysayers and leaned fully into her "bad guy" moniker. She has shared stages with CupcakKe and Three 6 Mafia's DJ Paul, earned an official SXSW artist spot three years running (2024, 2025, 2026), and performed at Stubb's as part of KUTX's Summer Jam.
"She exudes heightened confidence, but immediately sprinkles in a reminder to remain resilient. The best villains are likable because they actually speak sensically."
