Biography
Yung Miami functions as one half of the bold multi-platinum rap duo City Girls, yet she retains her flashy and irreverent edge even when working alone. After rising to prominence with partner JT, she issued the charting singles “Rap Freaks” in 2021 and “50/50” in 2024 while appearing on records by Diddy and Lola Brooke, all while City Girls continued expanding their string of hits.
Born Caresha Romeka Brownlee and raised in the Florida city that supplied her stage name, Yung Miami and her friend JT accidentally entered rap in 2017 through the diss track “Fu*k Dat Ni**a,” which earned them a deal with Quality Control. The pair released two albums that included the Top 40 platinum singles “Twerk” and “Act Up” before Miami stepped out on her own in 2021. That October she joined Quavo on “Strub tha Ground,” then made her first solo release for Quality Control with “Rap Freaks,” a cut brimming with name-dropping wordplay that debuted at number 81 on the Billboard Hot 100. While City Girls remained active, she contributed to Gucci Mane’s “First Impression,” the “Queens Remix” of Diddy’s “Gotta Move On,” and a remix of Lola Brooke’s “Don’t Play with It.” In 2024 she followed “Rap Freaks” with the casually commanding “50/50.”
