Yung Miami has big plans for the future, and she has cited Rihanna as her influence as she continues to build her brand — however, not everyone thinks this is a feasible goal.
On Tuesday (June 4), the Florida rapper reshared a social-media post by The Shade Room about the “Umbrella” singer’s latest business endeavor.

Atop the headline that reads “#TSR Beauty: She’s Expanding! Rihanna Announces The Launch Of Her New Haircare Line,” the 30-year-old wrote: “WHO I ASPIRE TO BE!!!! THAT BAG & STATUS DIFFERENT.”
Soon after Hollywood Unlocked posted a screenshot of the IG Story, fans flooded the comments sections to humble her.

Likewise, another added: “Girl u reaching too high w all that ratchet shit u be doing. Riri would never.”

Contrarily, some came to the “Rap Freaks” hitmaker’s defense with comments such as “Yung Miami she can do anything she sets her attentions on!!” and “How can yall have anything negative to say about this?! Shes inspired!”

Last month, Yung Miami seemingly confirmed that City Girls are no longer a unit.
The relationship between her and JT has been through several ups and down over the past few months, and their alliance might have come to a permanent end.
During an interview with Complex in late May, she addressed the poor commercial reception of the duo’s last album and how they both subsequently drifted apart.
“I think when the City Girls album dropped and it didn’t do too well and we was just like trying to do our press run. You know, the whole rollout of the album was just so bad because we were just in two different spaces,” she said.

“We’re older now and she was doing her own thing on the West Coast, I’m in Miami doing my own thing. And I felt like naturally, when she’s doing her own thing, it just works for her. And when I’m doing my own thing, it works for me.”
Miami added: “But when we get together as a group, it just wasn’t connecting, it just wasn’t working no more. I think we were both at a point where it was just like, we should probably just do our own shit. That was the point for me.”
