New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Today Yung Miami and JT - together known as City Girls -- release the highly-anticipated video for "Twerk (feat. Cardi B)". In it, City Girls own the dance for themselves, rallying their troupe of women to get cheeks flying and take control of their own sexuality.

Yung Miami - painted as a zebra - and featured artist Cardi B - painted as a tiger - lead a group of agile ladies on yacht, on a beach, on a pole, even on a muscle car without a man in sight. Ladies are twerkin' it for themselves, showcasing insanely amazing athleticism, and looking fly while doing it. And they can slap their own ass thank you.

With over 215 million overall streams and 39.3 million from "Twerk ft. Cardi B, " the world sure seemed ready to listen and dance. "Twerk" was an immediate track stand-out for fans on City Girls new album, Girl Code (Quality Control Music/Motown/Capitol Records), so the Girls decided to send a challenge to the world. The Goal: To find the world's greatest twerker. The winner would not only get flewed into Miami on 'Flewed Out' airlines and $25k in hard cash, but would be -- and now is -- featured in their video taking back the twerk.
The Broadcast premiere will be on BET Jams and will air every hour on the network. City Girls are also inviting fans to a Live Chat Room BELOW:
Even before the 12pm PST/ 3pm EST premiere when the video is live for everyone, City Girls and City Boys can dish.
Refreshingly, JT and Yung Miami bluntly set their own terms on what can be a taboo subject for women. Most recently City Girls' genuineness caught the ear of Drake, who recruited them for his 10-week chart topping song "In My Feelings". And when City Girls rap to a lovelorn Drake "I'll show you how to network. F*ck that Netflix and chill; what's your net worth?" they make it clear they are looking for any broke boys.

JT and Yung Miami are uncensored, unapologetic, sharing a commitment to their hood roots and a bold insistence that the culture they come from should stop them from getting a piece of the cash pie. One of the most provocative female hip-hop duo in years, the Miami duo of JT and Yung Miami are the next generation of female speak out as raw and confident -- and with as much swagger as the boys.

As Refinery29 states: "This emerging group taps into the same enterprising spirit applauded in male rappers when they wax poetic about selling drugs or pimping to escape bleak financial circumstance. This female version is just as inspiring. The male gaze only succeeds in objectifying women when the sole outcome considered is male gratification. City Girls set the terms of engagement for a payday they've orchestrated."

With JT currently serving her sentence for credit card fraud, City Girls worked hard and banked a lot of material before she went in. As Yung Miami states: "It is a minor setback for a major comeback."

Coach K and Pierre "Pee" Thomas of the renowned Quality Control Music label discovered the girls and took their first song "Fu*k Dat N****" from a regional hit to a national smash when it appeared on the seminal Quality Control Presents: Control The Streets Vol 1 compilation.

Recently Quality Control Music released City Girls' heart-wrenching documentary "Point Blank Period" . The documentary follows the City Girls as they break into a predominantly male-dominated industry with the release of Period . It features their reactions to hearing Drake shout them out on his record to JT working in the studio until her jail sentence starts. Exclusive interviews are included with Yung Miami and JT, as well as industry trailblazers Trina, Kevin "Coach K" Lee and Pierre "Pee" Thomas, exposing the complicated road to breaking female artists in the changing music landscape.

"CITY GIRLS are a rougher, modern-day version of TLC's "No Scrubs." It's two proud, bodacious babes callin' it like it is." - MIAMI NEW TIMES

"Two women as co-pilots, shattering the boy's club that had been assembled...In less than six months, they've managed to generate a following for their ability to be completely unfiltered in their penchant for men "who gon' swipe them Visas." - NOISEY

"Although the duo is brand new, they have already garnered attention with their previous single releases, having been described as a strong force of opposition against the "boy's club" mentality prevalent in Hip Hop." - HIPHOPDX
