<h3 style="text-align: center;">Rising To Success With City Girls</h3>
<p>Of course, as Yung Miami flew onto fans&#8217; radars through being one-half of City Girls, we have to start there. She and JT&#8217;s first track together, &#8220;F**k Dat N***a,&#8221; instantly took off and caught the attention of Quality Control Music.</p>
<p>This Florida-bred duo&#8217;s debut album, <em>Period</em>, followed shortly thereafter, and it was an INSTANT vibe among the gworls. Later that same year, <em>Girl Code </em>was released, which spawned beloved hits like &#8220;Act Up&#8221; and &#8220;Twerk.&#8221;</p>
<p>So, Yung Miami certainly hit the ground running with her and JT&#8217;s rap career, and it looks like the hard work certainly paid off! Additionally, it brought it a whole wave of people embracing the &#8220;Period!&#8221; mantra while proudly identifying as &#8220;city girls&#8221; and &#8220;city boys.&#8221;</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Holdin&#8217; It Down While JT Was Incarcerated</h3>
<p>Shortly after City Girls started to blow up, however, JT had to serve nearly two years in prison on identity fraud charges.</p>
<p>In spite of this major road bump, Yung Miami was determined to keep the momentum going. From recording a lit video for &#8220;Act Up&#8221; to providing features for artists like Quavo, Saweetie, Juicy J, and Lloyd, Yung Miami held it down and kept City Girls in the conversation.</p>
<p>We should also note that the credits for these features were all under &#8220;City Girls&#8221; despite JT temporarily being M.I.A.</p>
<p>So, although City Girls continued to churn out hits after JT&#8217;s release, Yung Miami worked hard to make sure that the success never stopped! And <em>that</em><em>&#8216;s </em>on PERIOD!</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Sharing A Hilarious Friendship With Saucy Santana</h3>
<p>We also <em>have </em>to throw out that Yung Miami&#8217;s close friendship with Saucy Santana is one for the ages, as these stars aren&#8217;t afraid to ruthlessly shade each other in good fun.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Effortlessly Entertaining Fans With Her Online Antics</h3>
<p>While her friendship with Saucy Santana keeps fans chuckling, Yung Miami can do bad all by herself, as she effortlessly stays bringin&#8217; the humor.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">Servin&#8217; A Memorable Roaches Line During Her Solo Debut</h3>
<p>Speaking of Yung Miami&#8217;s humor, it spilled into a very memorable line featured at the end of &#8220;Rap Freaks,&#8221; her solo debut.</p>
<p>Specifically, she instructed her boo Diddy to &#8220;put it in [his] face like them roaches&#8221; before saying that she&#8217;ll &#8220;put [his] rich a** to sleep, <em>buenas noches</em>.&#8221; This was notably a clever reference to a story Diddy previously shared regarding waking up with a face full of <a href="https://people.com/music/diddy-says-he-was-once-woke-up-with-15-roaches-on-his-face/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">cockroaches</a> at one point during his pre-fame days.</p>

<p>We should also point out that Yung Miami&#8217;s decision to rhyme &#8220;roaches&#8221; with &#8220;buenas noches&#8221; had Megan Thee Stallion hysterically laughing on Instagram Live.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center;"> Working To Become &#8216;The Black Oprah&#8217; Through <em>Caresha Please</em></h3>
<p>In mid-2022, Yung Miami embarked on a new venture with her <em>Caresha Please </em>podcast. The show swiftly took off with plenty of hype from viewers, and this was furthered by Yung Miami proclaiming, &#8220;I want to be the Black Oprah,&#8221; as <em><a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/yung-miami-hilariously-doubles-down-on-next-black-oprah-aspirations-after-twitter-trolls-her/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Shade Room</a> </em>previously reported.</p>
<p>Although <em><a href="https://youtu.be/9wSsD2haKLI" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Caresha Please</a> </em>is still under a year old, it&#8217;s already provided numerous moments that are loved by fans. Check out just a couple of our favorite moments down below.</p>

<p>Finally, we have to give Yung Miami her props for securing a role in <em>You People</em>. As a result, she got to star alongside seasoned actors like Eddie Murphy, Nia Long, Lauren London, and Jonah Hill star in the Kenya Barris production, which premiered earlier this year.</p>
