City Girls is a hot, raunchy new rap group from Miami but there’s a lot to their story. I spoke to Yung Miami because her partner JT is in prison.

Even if you’ve never heard of City Girls, this is a fascinating look at someone who’s from the bottom and is on the cusp of changing her life forever. Thanks to God and some nasty sexual rhymes.
