Sophia Chang, Music Director and Producer
The Baddest Bitch In the Room. While it’s easy enough to explain the title of Sophia Chang’s award-winning book, unless you’re deep in the know it’s harder to figure out how and why she took on this identity. A quick call to the RZA, or the GZA, or A Tribe Called Quest, or Raphael Saadiq would clear that up.
Chang is a multi-hypenate’s dream: in addition to being an author she’s been a manager, music director, record exec, producer, and, as of late, leading the charge as the prime mover behind Unlock Her Potential, an American mentorship program for cis, trans, & non-binary, femmes, gender expansive, gender non-conforming, and gender-fluid people of color.
When does she sleep? Probably (possibly?) never.
