Yung Miami is a queen on the rise.
She’s not only owned the Hip Hop industry, but now she’s looking to carve a new lane for herself with her new show, Caresha Please.
The podcast show debuted on Diddy’s REVOLT this past June and has quickly garnered millions of views. Diddy, with whom she’s romantically linked, JT, Kevin Gates, Latto, and Megan Thee Stallion have all taken a seat on Caresha Please for what Yung Miami describes as ‘real, raw and uncut’ conversations.
And although Miami has been alone a few months into her media empire journey, the City Girl wants to take her new-found career to the greatest heights.
In a recent interview with XXL, the 28-year-old rapper said she’s “dreaming big” and wants to be “the Black Oprah.”
“People just loving to hear me talk, you know? Whenever I talk or whenever I go on [Instagram] Live, it go viral,” she said.
“ So, one day I was talking with Diddy, and he was like, “Yeah, [you] should do a podcast. It would be good for you,” and that’s how it came out. It was just a conversation of me just always going viral off the way I talk and the engagement that I used to get off of Instagram Live.”
When XXL then asked about the goal she wants to accomplish with Caresha Please, Miami responded:
“I want to take it to the next level. I want to be like—I think she has a podcast now—a person like Wendy Williams. I’m dreaming big. I want to go to the highest of the highest. I want to be the Black Oprah,” she declared.
However, as soon as her ‘Black Oprah’ comments were published on Twitter, Yung Miami started trending, with fans clowning Miami for her choice of words.

The City Girls rapper has been trending lately after news of her relationship with Diddy came to light. When asked about their relationship, Miami said:
“We are dating. We single, but we’re dating. People don’t know what dating means. He’s single, I’m single, but we’re dating. That’s what I mean when I say we go together. When we’re together, we’re together. We’re having the time of our lives, but we’re still single,” she told XXL.
“He see other people outside of me, and I see people outside of him. I’m young. I’m dating. I’m, you know, having fun. I’m doing me. He’s doing the same thing. I can’t speak for exactly what he doing or who he seeing, but we single, and we dating. But we are dating each other, but we single. I think it just went over people’s heads, you know? People just like to take whatever they wanna take from.”
We wish her the best in her journey and can’t wait for the next City Girl album.
