Story4.5 out of 5 stars 66
Sophia Chang is a badass of the music industry. As the daughter of Korean immigrants in predominantly white suburban Vancouver, she grew up shunning the “model minority” myth. Armed with a fierce sense of independence, she moved to New York City and infiltrated the world of hip-hop, yet remained mostly in the shadows of the artists she supported. With her debut memoir, Sophia Chang is finally ready to grab the mic for herself.

So fun, inspirational, empowering for a half Asian, music-loving woman who also grew up in bland (when compared to NYC) “burbs” of Vancouver, Canada. Story flows nicely. Love the guest appearances for the dialogue and some of the sound effects so I can see it in my minds eye.
Most of all, this book inspired me to give myself permission to be audaciously me, to pursue the crafts and people I love rather than worry so much about just “getting a job.” It was comforting to hear examples of other women’s experiences of navigating entrenched boys clubs - which inevitably happens when you choose to rise the ranks in pretty much all industries I can think of.
Wonderful memoir and so glad you told your story Sophia because there aren’t as many mentors out there for the female, Asian/North American demographic who follow he creative path.
