Samara Cyn is a recording artist and songwriter from Murfreesboro, Tennessee, based in Los Angeles. She works in neo-soul and hip hop, combining singing and rap in a style that draws on modern soul, nostalgic hip hop and southern inflections, with some west-coast influence in her delivery and phrasing.

Her writing focuses on internal conflict, society and ideas of peace. Her voice is described as raspy, and her music is noted for fitting into a range of production styles, particularly laid-back tempos. Her own description, “makes music for ya auntie,” reflects the mix of soul and rap in her sound.

She develops her career through early open mic performances, which lead to opening slots and headline appearances for artists and venues including Teddy Swims, Tory Lanez, SuperDuperKyle, House of Blues Houston, Valley Bar and Crescent Ballroom Phoenix.

Her influences include Lauryn Hill, Erykah Badu, Missy Elliott, JID and Kendrick Lamar.
