In universe, who wrote/performed “Everything is Awesome”?
Clash Royale CLAN TAG#URR8PPP
I have yet to see The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part so I am not sure if it answered there and I can't remember it being answered in The Lego Movie.
Who, in universe, wrote and performed the hit song "Everything is Awesome"?

The first movie implies that Octan produces the popular music as part of their control over the mass populace, also - Wyldstyle is shown to hate the popular music, calling Batman's music "real" music: script excerpt: "Emmet Brickowoski: President Business is gonna end the world? But he's such a good guy! And Octan... they make good stuff; music, dairy products, coffee, TV shows, surveillance systems, all history books, voting machines... Wait a minute."

After having a look around for a while I have found out the following information.
According to Wikipedia and the Fandom wiki it is revealed in The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part that Lucy used to have a band and was in fact [one of] the original singers for "Everything is Awesome". Whilst this doesn't give evidence that she and/or her band wrote the song it could be true that they did.
Emmet's dream house is rebuilt and Lucy reveals that she was one of the original artists of "Everything is Awesome" as Emmet gasps in response.
Wikipedia, The Lego Movie 2: The Second Part, Plot
She used to have a band & was the original singer for Everything Is Awesome.
The Lego Movie Wiki, Lucy, Trivia
In The Lego Movie it is implied that Octan produced the music as NKCampbell commented on the question.
Emmet Brickowoski: President Business is gonna end the world? But he's such a good guy! And Octan... they make good stuff; music, dairy products, coffee, TV shows, surveillance systems, all history books, voting machines... Wait a minute.
The Lego Movie
It's worth noting that the band may have been called the "No News Gnus" as is revealed in this early draft of the script for the first film which appears to be valid.
RADIO DJ: It’s another beautiful day in Legopolis and on Empura Radio. Reminding you don’t forget to reelect President Iamnotarobot for President of the City on Tuesday. Now, for the 258th consecutive week at #1, here’s the No News Gnus with their hit “Everything is Awesome.”
LEGO: THE PIECE OF RESISTANCE, Early draft of The Lego Movie screenplay
However, as can be seen in this scene from the film that part was cut and the scene actually plays out like the following so the name of the band is probably not canon.
Emmet Brickowoski: Step thirteen; enjoy popular music. [he turns on the radio]
Radio DJ: Top of the charts again, it's "Everything is Awesome".
Emmet Brickowoski: Oh, my gosh! I love this song!
The Lego Movie
After doing some more searching I have found this blog post which shows some collectable figures for the second film. Amongst the collection are these figures which appear to make up a band (or multiple) and Lucy is in the mix with a gold record for "Everything is Awesome".
The others are:
Given every other name in that draft was changed, I'm not sure it carries much weight.
