Imani Hakim is extra grown and extra fabulous.  She was all of our favorite tattle-tell but hilarious little sister when she burst on the scene as Tanya in "Everybody Hates Chris."  She also portrayed Gabby Douglas in the Olympian's Lifetime biopic.  Now, she's still lighting up the Hollywood streets with out-of-the-box roles, bomb natural hair and her OWN projects she's writing in order to be the change she wants to see.


She's a chick after our own hearts, playing video game tester Dana on Apple TV Plus' latest series (we can't believe how addicted to it we are!) "Mythic Quest: Raven's Banquet," who is the only black video game tester in her office.  And she's fly AF. 


Imani and Natasha talk about gamer life, her decision to proudly rock braids for the role, her own real life natural hair journey and fight to see more Type 4c hair YBF chicks on our screens, black women speaking up for themselves in the workplace, Covid craziness, protests, and, of course, her thoughts on her former co-star Terry Crews' QUITE controversial statements about Black Lives Matter.


Let's get into it!
