The world of hip-hop is often seen as dominated by urban, black men with very few women able to penetrate the inner sanctum. But one Korean-Canadian woman not only got inside, Sophia Chang broke down barriers and was completely and totally embraced by hip-hop. Her work in A&R and marketing with some of the biggest names in music including ODB, RZA, A Tribe Called Quest and Wu-Tang Clan catapulted Sophia into history as the first Asian female in hip-hop. Her amazing story is now in her memoir, “The Baddest Bitch in the Room”. May and Sophia had A LOT to talk about including how being “the other” helped fuel their determination to fight racism, division and hatred. This is a badass interview you don’t want to miss.
