Chris Conde

Chris Conde is a genre-blurring queer Latinx artist from Austin, Texas, known for his raw lyricism and unapologetic exploration of identity, mental health, and LGBTQ+ experiences. Combining elements of hip-hop, emo, punk, and spoken-word poetry, his music—like the albums *No Longer Human* and *The Notorious F.A.G.*—often confronts societal norms with vulnerability and biting wit. Releases such as *Good Boys Say Yes Sir* and *Engulfed in the Marvelous Decay* showcase his knack for merging confessional storytelling with DIY production, creating a sound that’s as confrontational as it is cathartic.

Active in the underground scene, Conde’s work (including projects like *bestfriends&pinkyswears* and *The Summer of Our Discontent*) doubles as both personal diary and political manifesto, tackling everything from queer joy to systemic oppression. His live performances and lyrics often reflect his background in poetry and his commitment to amplifying marginalized voices, making him a standout voice in alternative hip-hop and beyond.
