HIPHOPDX Scar Lip

Backed by Bronx royalty Cardi B and the legendary Busta Rhymes, Scar Lip (real name Sierra Lucas), often compared to the late DMX, burst onto the music scene in 2022 with an unflagging intensity.

The rough-n-tough rhymer was tapped by Swizz Beatz last year for his Hip Hop 50: Vol. 2 EP, alongside Jadakiss and Benny The Butcher. Meanwhile, West Coast legend Snoop Dogg joined her on the remix of her breakthrough hit “This Is New York,” transforming it into “This Is Cali.”

With a Cardi B co-sign, a Snoop Dogg remix, and Swizz Beatz set to produce her debut EP — Scars and Stripes (release date TBD) — Scar Lip’s journey is on a rapid ascent.
