If you could go back in time and give a piece of advice to your younger self, what would that look like?
Tying your artistry to your self-worth is often inevitable when people are watching, numbers are involved, and you're constantly evaluating whether or not your art lives up to your own expectations.
Take the art away. Who are you?
Singer/songwriter Lyn Lapid // @_lynlapid shares with us her experience battling imposter syndrome as her own biggest critic, and how supportive friends and family keep her grounded even when home feels far away.
Lapid speaks on the role of her musical upbringing, her first supporters after debuting on social platforms such as YouTube and TikTok, and the importance of revisiting your roots—what that all really means to her.
Our full interview is available now on TAROMAGAZINE.COM💜

Filipino-American singer/songwriter Lyn Lapid // @_lynlapid has been flourishing since we spoke with her on the #TLIT21C tour in June. 🌱
Proceeding her exceptional performance @88rising Head in the Clouds Festival 2023, Lapid hasn't lost her momentum—with the release of her latest single "east side", Lapid has also announced that she will be back on the road for "to love in the 21st century, the epilogue tour" scheduled for early next year with new releases from her Deluxe EP. 🛤️
In an exclusive interview with TARO Magazine, Lapid shares her experience navigating new eras in her career and personal life, the balancing act between social media and artistry, playing the role of your own biggest critic, and what support looks like in the creative world. 🪻🎶🎤
Not only equipped with a breathtaking voice, powerful stage presence, and a talented band, Lapid is a sweet soul that we were grateful to connect with. We hope to follow her journey as she continues to grow.✨
