Love & Hip Hop: Miami star Sukihana describes herself as a Leprechaun looking for her next pot of gold in a tantalizingly gut-busting interview with Corn Bread TV’s Funny Marco. Some would say the vibrant and mouthy rapper is Cardi B. 2.0, given her authenticity and confidence.
In the Breakbeat Media interview directed by Matt Ables and executive produced by Dave Mays and Brett Jeffries, Sukihana, who is promoting her mixtape, Wolf P***y, is candid about her haters — and John Legend.
She keeps it more than 100 when she says the first thing that comes to her mind in the morning is Instagram. Her perspective on the Will Smith and Chris Rock debacle is even more stringent when asked what she would do if she was Rock.
“He’s lucky that’s all he got, I would never be Chris Rock,” Sukihana tells Funny Marco.

Born Destiny Henderson, the Florida artist’s life is displayed on Love & Hip Hop: Miami weekly, where fans can see the young mother manage multiple businesses and a rocky engagement to rapper Kill Bill.
The “Food Stamp H*e” has never been reserved, with a budding social media following and viral stunts from OnlyFans. But her ratchet persona is one of contention for a constituency that is lobbying for cleaner rap lyrics and better representation of a diverse community of Black people that also includes the professional, intellectual, and family-oriented.
Before and even during the pandemic, the lines were drawn on the battlefield for Black representation, equality, and equity. The same can’t be said post pandemic. As the worldwide protests have subsided, the various voices have become monotone, merging into one type of woman — at least in the predominately Black fields of entertainment.
The exodus of energy from the “do-gooders” have left the floodgates open for anyone to lead, but media particularly leans toward what brings ratings and views. A good train wreck and spectacle draws the most interest.
What once was an aggravation that plagued the progress of a disenfranchised group attempting to rise above stereotypes is now the temporary assuagement and deflection of the American people.
Sukihana is both problematic and an escape from our problems. She knows how to throw caution to the wind and spice up everyday life in a comedic way, and it’s done well for her rising career. It’s too true that exceptions are made for those that make us laugh. Plus, there’s that whole thing about the freedom to be whoever she wants to be, it is her prerogative to do so.

The petite ball of fire only becomes problematic when people who are not in the realm of entertainment adopt Sukihana’s behaviors and apply them to real-life scenarios — can you imagine greeting your mother-in-law or causing a viral moment at your local neighborhood store in Sukihana fashion?
In short, Sukihana is a champion for many reasons, clearly she beat some odds and made something out of nothing despite adversity. But, as with anything in life, balance is key, and sustainability is the long-term goal.
