Angela Yee has been a force in the entertainment industry for more than two decades. She began her career working with the Wu-Tang Clan and eventually became a Radio Hall of Fame inductee. She has worked with the likes of Paul Rosenberg, Cipha Sounds at Sirius Radio, and with Charlamagne the God and DJ Envy at Power 105.
Yee is now back hosting her own radio show, Way Up with Angela Yee, and is also a budding entrepreneur. Her partnership with Airbnb is a prime example of her moves in real estate. Yee recently closed a deal on a residential building in Detroit's Midtown area, where she plans on giving 10 of the apartments to formerly incarcerated women.
BLACK ENTERPRISE caught up with Yee to discuss her current partnership with Airbnb. Yee purchased some property in the Catskills in 2022 for her first Airbnb. It has seven bedrooms and the amenities are fit for a luxury property, with a dipping pool and Jacuzzi. Before opening it to the public, Yee tested it out by having her friends stay there to get honest feedback.
When asked why it took some time for her to feel comfortable with people coming to her property, Yee replied that she wanted to make sure everything was up-to-par and that they cared about the reviews. She also discussed her future plans to purchase property on an island.
Yee is passionate about female empowerment and entrepreneurship, and typically gets involved in ways where she can pass on her experiences to others. She wants to lead by example and show others that taking risks can be rewarding. Her all-women team in Detroit is a shining example of this.
Yee also discussed her initial entry into real estate when she purchased her first home in Brooklyn, NY. She then bought several properties in Detroit and was able to successfully flip them to her advantage. When asked why Detroit, Yee said it was due to the growing economy and the abundance of opportunity.
It's clear that Angela Yee's vision and ambition are paying off. With her passion for female empowerment and entrepreneurship, as well as her real estate investments, it's no surprise that her business is “Way Up with Angela Yee.”
