Yung Miami surprised fans this week when she dropped a new video featuring two very special co-stars: her daughter and her niece.
The rapper released the visual for “Newsflash” on Wednesday, February 18, putting her family front and center in a track that finds her speaking candidly about her life.
“This one was very personal to me. I’m standing in my truth and not apologizing for it. I put my confidence, survival, and pain in that song. I’m standing my ground and showing that I’m here now,” she said.
The bass-knocking track finds Miami reflecting on everything from stepping into her solo era to revisiting the 2019 shooting that once dominated headlines. It also sets the stage for her next official single, “Tea Time,” which is scheduled to hit streaming platforms Friday, February 20, after already building buzz online.
Outside the studio, Miami has been expanding her empire, moving deeper into fashion, beauty and media while keeping her name firmly in the spotlight. At home, though, she is simply mom.
The rapper shares two children, including her six year old daughter, Summer Miami, who is already carving out her own lane.
Summer is the founder of Summer Miami Cosmetics, a kid friendly beauty brand that launched in October. Ahead of the rollout, Miami, born Caresha Brownlee, shared a message explaining why she decided to build the brand around her daughter.
“Since you were little, I’ve watched you play in my makeup, pose in the mirror, and tell me, Mommy, I wanna be like you. You’ve always been my girly girl. Confident, creative, and full of sparkle. I see so much of myself in you, but even more, I see your own light shining bright,” she wrote.
She continued, “You’ve watched me work hard and build something out of nothing, and now it’s your turn. For your 6th birthday, I wanted to give you something that will grow with you, your own brand, Summer Miami Cosmetics.”
Since launching, Summer has appeared at pop up shop events, filmed promotional videos and regularly promotes the products on social media.
In addition to Summer, Yung Miami is also mom to her son Jai, who was born in 2013.
