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

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.
