5 Things to Know About Queens Star Pepi Sonuga, aka Lil Muffin

ABC’s new series Queens follows the fictional ’90s girl group Nasty B*tches as they get back together 20 years after they were at the peak of their career. Members Briana, aka Professor Sex (Eve); Valeria, aka Butter Pecan (Nadine Velazquez); Jill, aka Da Thrill (Naturi Naughton); and Naomi, aka Xplicit Lyrics (Brandy) reunite and end up mentoring Lauren Rice, aka Lil Muffin (Pepi Sonuga), a young rapper being exploited by the industry as she battles addiction. Lil Muffin needs the Nasty B*tches as a cosign for her craft and they need her to gain a younger audience for their comeback. While Eve, Brandy, Naturi, and Nadine are household names, Pepi is an actress and singer that should also be on your radar.
