Lina Aattache

Lina is a graduate student in Communication Studies at Concordia University, with a strong interest in political journalism. Alongside her academic work, she is a singer and rapper from Brussels, performing under the name Linliya.

Linliya is a voice that blends softness with intensity, moving fluidly between R&B, trap, and new pop influences. Mixing French lyrics with strong anglophone influences, Linliya embodies Lina’s alter ego: while Lina is naturally gentle and reserved, Linliya is more eccentric, bold, and introspective—a persona unafraid to explore raw emotions and deeply personal stories. Through her music, she creates a universe where vulnerability and strength intertwine, drawing from both her personal experiences and her evolving sense of identity.
