Who is Wynne? Her new video "Hold My Purse" has legendary Conductor Williams behind it

The Portland MC directs her own fight-night visual and raps like she has something to settle.

Wynne is done waiting her turn. The Portland rapper's new single, "hold my purse," pairs her with producer Conductor Williams, and the official music video feels like a warning shot: two minutes of dense, punchline-stacked rap from an MC tired of being called underrated.


Released September 24, the video has already passed 59,000 views on YouTube, with a comment section that reads less like fan mail and more like a petition for a full project.


Conductor Williams Brings the Dust, Wynne Brings the Bars


Conductor Williams has become one of the most in-demand names in rap production, the Kansas City beatmaker behind standout records for Griselda, Drake and J. Cole. His calling card is the loop that feels dug out of a crate and left a little rough around the edges, and that is exactly the canvas he hands Wynne here.


She treats it like a sparring session. The title is the old pre-fight phrase, and the verses follow through: tightly packed internal rhymes, pop culture references that land sideways, and a delivery that never rushes to prove how fast it can go. Listeners have singled out an anime-referencing rhyme scheme and a line about squaring up with the clock as early favorites.


A Self-Directed Video Set in a Portland Gym


Wynne directed the video herself and shares creative direction with Mez. The fight-night theme is literal. The clip was shot with the help of Loprinzi's Gym, the old-school Portland weight room, and the handbags that give the song its name were supplied by Kozha Numbers.


The crew includes director of photography Riley Brown, editor Max Van Nol, colorist Miles Jacobs, and producers Itay Lerner and Dalila Morais, with André Marques as executive producer. The result looks expensive without losing the grit of the beat underneath it.


Why Fans Are Calling for More


Wynne built her name on freestyles that traveled far beyond the Pacific Northwest, then backed it up with projects that showed she could carry full songs. "hold my purse" lands in the lane her audience has been asking for: straight rapping over a producer with real pedigree.


The top comments under the video are already matching her with other boom-bap heavyweights and asking why the view count isn't ten times higher. If this single previews what's next, the underrated tag may not last much longer.
