Thank you for sharing the knowledge through this platform Issa!! I’ve been inspired by Melina’s work and as a fellow Jersey girl I’m proud to see someone from my hometown make big moves in the industry. Y’all are both exceptional
Had the honor and pleasure of working alongside Melina on a 50 cent video in Manhattan when she was a wardrobe stylist OR I think it was she was the friend of the key stylist and helping her on the video with the principles and BG talent. Anyway, she was so dope,, great personality and energy. I was inspired bck then, and even more so now. Very proud of her achievements. She's a true trailblazer reppin us women of color exceptionally well 👑🙏🏼👏🏽👍🏼
Thanks for posting these!🙏🏿I am here taking all of this wisdom and getting inspired to write that script I’ve had in me for while now and got to get out to the world (btw I am seeing Issa attached to it, putting it out in the universe)♥️
MELINAAAA!!! Happy to see A Sip make its way to TH-cam. (Even though I could’ve watched this again on Patreon anyway). Happy to revisit Melina’s story. You both are such huge inspirations to me! Will be working with you sooner than I think ✨
Great informative and funny interview. “We were the chosen blacks…. we on Sunset N**** , but nah nah, we also in Inglewood N***** “😂🤣😅😂🤣😅. Loved this too “we don’t need them to validate us, but it was great that they value what we are bringing”.
I mean I love this interview, but the inability to take responsibility for the failed first Skype rubbed me the wrong way. I can’t imagine telling that story that way. We all play our part & if it was even just a meet & greet, it’s basically a job interview. Come prepared. 🤨
She come of rude … i don’t feel here at all … she the vibe of La that i didn’t vibe with … why is she here !!!! She was lucky Issa Rae saw something in here…
I love how these are old recordings but still something can be taken away from it. I love these uploads 🙌🏽
Melina really reminds me of Solange. I even think their voices are similar.
I was thinking the exact same thing like damn
They're super close friends IRL. Melina brought Solange on to curate the music for seasons 1 and 2 I believe.
@@lilchef6124 Really? I had no clue.
@@Strawberryfearsforever yea her Bey are very close as well
They’re of the same tribe, homegirls.

Thank you for this uploads, Issa!
Melina is so awesome
One is caught up playing the impassioned protagonist in one’s Subjective Narrative of Self🎈
I understood the baby metaphor
Yesssssssss

I hope Issa doesn’t become “cliquey”....this was good though
She has a speaking cadence just like Solange. lol. They be spending too much time together. lol
She come of rude … i don’t feel here at all … she the vibe of La that i didn’t vibe with … why is she here !!!! She was lucky Issa Rae saw something in here…
Melina really isn't likeable LOL
I think she's more of an introvert and prefers being behind the scenes
why u say that?
she's interesting to me. likeability is overrated.
@@notsurewhat2put the way she kept cutting Issa off when speaking
I agree...
Yesssssss
