Yes, Girl!

Sophia Chang (@sophchangnyc) is the queen bee of badasses! She’s lighting up Instagram feeds daily with all the empowerment that a bad chick needs.

This “Music Business Matriarchitect” has managed the magic behind your favorite artists’ (and their labels) for the past 25 years - ODB, RZA, GZA, Q-Tip, Raphael Saadiq, A Tribe Called Quest, D’Angelo, Joey Bada$$ and more.

Now she’s conquering a new chapter in her story - author and storyteller. Her audio event The Baddest Bitch in the Room, now available on Audible, is possibly the most candid and reflective story of love and hip-hop. Cori (@corimurray) and Charli (@charlipenn) give us a front-row seat to Sophia, as she shares her tools for how women of color can be seen and heard, by any means necessary.

When we say we had a GOOD time with this man? We mean it! Star of the hit HBO series, ‘Watchmen’ Yahya Abdul-Mateen II (@yahya) is the New Orleans-born architect-turned-actor taking Hollywood by storm with his incredible acting chops. He’s also quickly become a sex symbol...because abs, and fully connected beard...and adorable face! He kept us cracking up! Get into this episode because we definitely had a good time discussing his relatively quick rise in La La Land, his already iconic role starring opposite Regina King in Watchmen and all the lessons he’s learned along the way. Don’t forget to leave us comments to let us know what you think of the episode and tell a friend! Use hashtag #YesGirlPodcast!

In New Orleans at ESSENCE Festival, the YGP hosts had a chance to get to know some of the 2020 presidential Candidates better. Senator (and TRUE Jersey boy) Cory Booker (@CoryBooker) came through for an intimate conversation where he shared his commitment to Black women and our community. Cori and Charli had the pleasure of chatting with Sen. Booker about developing communities, his Vegan lifestyle, his love for his home state and the Black women who’ve inspired his career. And with Election Day 2020 quickly approaching (473 days to be exact!) the senator also offers encouragement for those of us who are feeling a little jaded about the political process. Hit us up with your thoughts: Cori Murray, @corimurray; Charli Penn, (Twitter: @ManWifeDog, IG: @CharliPenn) and use #YesGirlPodcast when you tweet these gems!
