In this interview BreezyLyn talks what it was like growing up in Marcy Projects, meeting Beyonce, Gloria Carter and making a cameo in Jay Z's 99 problems video. Seeing the success of Nicki Minaj as a kid inspired her to go after her dreams as a rapper. Once she picked up the pen, she knocked it out the park with her first single being a smash. Bad Bitches has gandered over 5 million streams and we talked about the inspiration behind the record and her tagging Lola Brooke & Kalii for the remix, whom she consider to be the ultimate bad bitch and why. And we talk about her crush Meek Mill and why he's her favorite rapper plus she even joined in on the fun and played our WIHH Confessional Hour, where we like to put our guests in the hot seat!

About BreezyLYN: Combining a childhood nickname with the illustrious city that raised her, BreezyLYN is ready to strike as the bonafide breakout rapper from Brooklyn. Born in Bedford-Stuyvesant, she has quietly risen up from Marcy Houses—the neighborhood immortalized by Hip-Hop icon JAY-Z. Now, she continues her hometown’s legacy with her explosive debut single “Bad Bitches,” an unapologetic anthem packed with a message of self-love and self-expression. The drill-centric track has generated over 5M streams and earned plugs from Cardi B, Lola Brooke, Coi Leray, Ashanti and more. Lola Brooke invited BreezyLYNto perform during her set at Barclays Center in March, a powerful moment of unity for the next generation of women in rap. BreezyLYN’s forthcoming project is packed with hard-hitting bars exuding the confidence of a self-assured young woman.
