May 14 will officially be “Trina Day” in Miami and the rapper will also be getting the keys to the city!
While speaking with reporter Alex Miranda from News 7 Miami ahead of her big day, Trina said she’s “in shock.” She added, “I’m just excited to be in this space, and to see how far I can help the community and my city grow. It means everything to me.” She went on to express how proud she is of herself, “Just watching me continue to evolve, seeing me grow as a person, as a woman…” The veteran rapper went on to share some advice for the new girls in the game. Trina said: “Sometimes they get lost in the sauce. You gotta really stay in and you gotta develop. You gotta make it a career. You have to love it. Like, you have to marry the game.”
The celebration for Trina Day is set to kick off this Saturday. It will have live music, food, games and so much more, on Northwest 15th Avenue in Liberty City, from 63rd to 65th streets.
What is the purpose to keys to the city?
Most people get the keys to the city for heroic actions or their career accomplishments. Ultimately, the key is ornamental, and the ceremony is the bigger element here. Basically, this is a way for a city to honor someone for their actions/contributions. Many consider it an honor nonetheless, even if the key doesn’t actually open anything.
Trina has come a long way
During the interview, Trina shared that she actually started out as a realtor: “That was always my dream, so once I got out of high school and stuff, I actually went and got my real estate license.” Before Trick Daddy asked to feature her on “NANN.” Trina said: “This is my first time, so I don’t know what to expect, and he’s just like, ‘Yeah, you just gotta get in there, talk that talk,’ so I was like, ‘OK.’” From there, she knew she changed hip-hop, something that’s “a good feeling” to her.
In 2022, she’s still booked and busy. recently, she dropped a song titled “Clap,” featuring Latto.
