2020–2024: Early career and debut album

Mark was making lofi hip-hop instrumentals when in 2020 they got inspired by digicore musicians Quinn and Twikipedia to start using their voice in recordings.^[8] Around 2021, they and frequent collaborator Kaystrueno coined the term "maplekore", a sound inspired by the South Korean MMORPG MapleStory.^[6]

In July 2023, Mark released their debut album Sisterhood (stylized in all uppercase).^[5] The sound has been described as a "lo-fi [...] demo tape".^[5] Among the artists sampled in the project are rock bands Linkin Park, Malice Mizer, and Dir En Grey.^[8] Over the following years the album garnered a cult following.^[6][9]

In 2024, Mark officially changed their name from Lostrushi to Lucy Bedroque, explaining in an interview more than a year later, that they came up with their original name when they were 14 and now wanted a name that meant something to them.^[3] That same year they released three EPs, one of them a collaboration with fellow Los Angeles rapper and producer Egobreak.

2025–present: Breakthrough with Unmusique

Bedroque's debut mixtape Unmusique was released in May 2025 by deadAir Records. In a review by Pitchfork the album was described as trading in the "frailty" of earlier projects for a harder rage sound,^[6] going as far as being compared to rappers such as Playboi Carti and Lil Uzi Vert.^[9] Several critics have noted a strong EDM influence on Unmusique.^[9][6] For Bedroque it was a notable deviation from their usual self-produced sound. They explained that the title is a reference to this experimentation and collaboration with other producers.^[10] The album is Bedroque's first release under a label.^[6] Shortly before the release of Unmusique Bedroque joined labelmate Jane Remover for six concerts on their "Turn Up Or Die" tour across North America.^[11] In January 2026 it was announced that Bedroque would feature on the lineup of Rolling Loud 2026.^[12] In March 2026, American digicore producer and rapper Kuru announced a North American tour with Lucy Bedroque and 9lives.^[13]

Bedroque started working on Sisterhood's direct successor in 2023. Talking about their ambitions for the album, then already titled Svelte Child (also stylized in all uppercase), they said they want to mix Sisterhood's sound palette with shoegaze, math rock, metal and happy hardcore.^[8] Another potential project, the mixtape ROYGBIV, has been teased by Bedroque and collaborators Prettifun and Egobreak over the course of 2025, manifesting only in a few features and a single in March 2026.^[14] In an article by The Fader, Mark was listed as one of the 32 coolest artists of 2026.^[4] In May, Mark has announced the release date for their next album, C, to be June 2026. They consider it to be their debut album as Lucy Bedroque.^[15]
