    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.

      They're super close friends IRL. Melina brought Solange on to curate the music for seasons 1 and 2 I believe.

    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 👑🙏🏼👏🏽👍🏼

    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. 🤨
