Wynne is one of Hip-Hop’s most remarkable rising stars. Born Sina Wynne Holwerda in 1997, and growing up an outcast in Lake Oswego, a suburb of Portland, Oregon, she gravitated towards Hip-Hop at the age of nine. Studying the greats from afar, and dedicating her life to becoming a rapper by the age of 12, she established herself in the underground scene by competing in national cyphers. Soaking up influence from the greats of generations past (Jay-Z, Dilla, Foxy Brown, and the list goes on), as well as modern paragons like SZA and Drake, Wynne became a phenom by the age of 19, going viral several times and blowing the internet away with her veteran-level rapping. She quickly started gaining co-signs from some of music’s titans (Timbaland, Missy Elliot, Twista, Wyclef Jean) and cultural gatekeepers like Rob Markman and Zane Lowe, among several others. At 21 years old Wynne graduated college after four years of studying music and social justice, and released her debut mixtape “If I May..,” boasting assists from several A-list producers such as Hit-Boy, DJ Dahi, and Sounwave, as well as features from J.I.D, Mahalia, and fellow hometown hero, Damian Lillard. This took her on a sold-out tour with Earthgang and Mick Jenkins at the top of 2020. Through the early 2020s, she dropped an experimental EP with Dreamville super-producer Christo, along with a dozen singles, garnering millions of streams as she shepherded fans towards her new sound, ending the year with a viral hit, “Look At You.”

With her effortless, superstar quality, and her uncompromising lyricism, Wynne has become an unlikely candidate for a seat in the front of the new class. Wynne's latest offering is a 6-track EP titled 'Some Like It Hot,’ which, since its July 14th release, has garnered millions of streams across streaming services and been featured on some of Hip-Hop’s biggest platforms, including WorldStar HipHop, Genius, The Joe Sudden Podcast, On The Radar, Sway’s Universe, and more. Four of the six tracks have received significant editorial features, leading her to be named Billboard’s Rookie of the Month for July 2023. In the third quarter of 2023, Wynne successfully kicked off her first headlining tour, the “Hot On Their Heels” Tour, performing at over a dozen venues across the U.S. including history venues like SOBs and House of Blues. At the final show in Portland, Wynne announced another upcoming EP slated for a 2024 release, keeping her momentum going strong.

Quotable Lyrics:

Song: “High Standards” (single)

“ ‘Cause I really do live up to all the hype

I'm expensive and that shit's a fair price”

OR 

“Hot Friend” (Off of “Some Like It Hot” EP)

“I don't do this often

Buy me drinks, but I'm leaving with his hot friend

Ten when I lеft, but eleven whеn I stopped in

Think he's gonna hit because he's coming out of pocket”
