For hip-hop's 50th, I wrote about what how cocky women in rap helped my self esteem in a major way growing up. And spit some of the best words of affirmations I still use to this day. huffpost.com/entry/cocky-bla…

I think it's just ridiculous that the BET Awards are STILL on at 12:36am EST.

Briefly back to say: yesterday, I was laid off after 10 years at HuffPost. I’m obviously gutted. But once I take a breath, I’ll be open to jobs & freelance work, both in journalism and outside of it, given the state of our industry. bymarinafang@gmail.com; Signal: marinafang.72

After 9 years at HuffPost, today is my last day. I’ve grown so much & I’m grateful for the journey. This has been a dream job. Now on to new dreams.
I’ll still be writing/hosting/moderating, just doing it as a freelancer for now. Pitch commission me at taryn@tarynfinley.com.

I've had some stellar conversations with celebrities and everyday people alike (on and off camera) and I can confidently say that I'm great at what I do. My talent knows no bounds and I'm excited to keep developing it.
Watch this space. ❤️

Spent some time at @johnlegend’s house earlier this week, where we talked about his new children’s album, ‘My Favorite Dream,’ and reflected on the 20th anniversary of his debut.
My latest for @HuffPost ✍🏾
