The tension was palpable when Yung Miami sat down with Lore'l.

While no one seems particularly enthusiastic about Yung Miami’s debut solo album, she at least has enough of a chip on her shoulder to motivate this new chapter in her career, especially relating to those who’ve doubted her capacity as a soloist. Frankly, the City Girls era had its moment; Yung Miami and JT parted ways, and there’s a noticeable gap in interest between their past reign and their current reality.

Unfortunately for her, this has led to some pretty harsh criticisms about her career and personal life. During a recent interview with Lore'l, she made it clear that she’s in tune with the commentary that the radio host has had about her. While Lore’l said that it’s her job to talk about people, Miami explained how she clocks the unsolicited opinions when she drops her kids off at school.

“Every time I go to this one radio station, whenever my name comes up, you just always got something negative to say,” Miami said. “Why is this woman on radio always constantly got something to say every time it’s something about me, which I feel like is weird. So it’s like you are one of the ones to like, watch this,” she added, referencing the title of her new album.

Yung Miami Vs. Lore'l

Lore’l said that she doesn’t feel like she talks poorly about Yung Miami all the time but admitted that she’s made comments that might not have been the most flattering. Miami kept pressing, seemingly referring to previous commentary when Lore’l said Miami thought she was “bigger than the program” after Miami dropped out of Bossman D-Low’s tour in the midst of the success of “Spend Dat.” 

Lore’l insisted that it wasn’t personal, while Miami felt like it was. Check the clip out above and sound off with your thoughts in the comments below.
