Yasmeen Akbar is a Digital Content Fellow for Audacy and works specifically with Atlanta’s V103, The People’s Station. With music being her first love and writing her second, she currently covers all things music but dabbles in politics and activism. She’s originally from Pittsburg (No H), CA but moved to Atlanta, GA for school where she graduated from the illustrious Clark Atlanta University. When she’s not producing new content, you can find her spending time with her loved ones, trying new places to eat at, shopping and sleeping. Yasmeen lives by the Zora Neale Hurston quote, “how can anyone deny themselves the pleasure of my company? It’s beyond me.”
