- In this week's episode of the Angie Martinez IRL Podcast, Angie sits down with rapper, singer, and songwriter Coi Leray.
Coi Leray opens up about her childhood marked by her parents' separation to her rise as a music sensation.
She shares the impact of her parents' separation by shedding light on her father, Benzino, artist and founder of the Source Magazine, and her mother, his teenage love who struggled to raise four kids on her own after the split.
At 16, Coi made a bold move, leaving home, quitting school, and taking on a full-time job. This pivotal decision laid the foundation for her incredible work ethic, which has propelled her to success in the music industry.
However, after the release and success of her hit song "No More Parties," Coi Leray faced the harsh realities of the world. It was the first time that the typically confident Coi found herself questioning her worth. She grappled with doubts, asking herself if she was truly good enough, if her voice resonated, if her appearance matched societal standards, and well… whether she resembled “a boy.”
However, her confidence still rules. Coi is on an ongoing journey to silence the noise and discover genuine joy. With the guidance of a life coach, the support of her amazing friends, and a strong focus on her faith, she's actively learning to filter out negativity and embrace the positive aspects of her life.
Coi Leray is not just an artist. She’s a walking brand, and as we dare say… an icon in the making?! Don’t miss this episode!

The transparency is raw.. Really glad she pushed through all the backlash she got in the beginning of her career
⭐⭐💛🌟🌟🌈🌈🌈🌈💙💙💙💙💙❤️
Absolutely
😅😅😅😊yea agreed 💯 royaltrevion 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
It wasn't backlash, she needed to get away from all that bullshit and just be herself. No doubt in my mind she listened to someone in or not in her camp that gave a damn to tell her about how she was looking and acting. I thought she was trash in the beginning... She ain't no top female rapper for me but she has finally grown on me once she left the so called bad girl image alone and focused on her craft. Totally different young lady now and I like it.....
She hung out with J-rule, and her father is Benzino. Now, all she has to do is ask shady records to sign her....
I love how she is so self assured at a young age. Sometimes when we are going through our storms, we don't realize it's building strength and character. ❤
“We gotta start normalizing normal life.” That’s it. That’s all. 🎤👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Right bc it’s sad she only remembers gold chains & a high life
this girl looks like she could be a princess in disney or a presidents pretty daughter, RAPPER dose not come to mind when you look at her, guess that what she chose for her self
she needs to go into modeling or acting like zendaya, she can be big, competing against kendall jenner, verry cute, girls will love and relate to her
she is not black, she looks latina, she actually looks like middle to ipper class girl, what is wrong with coiloray
Love this interview. Coi is very articulate. I'm glad she did this interview it really showed a different side of her.
I didn't know this side of Coi before. You've done it again with your interviewing magic! Thank you for always showing the guest grace and making them feel welcomed enough to be vulnerable!
Wow coi you are AMAZING ❤
I was scared to tell my mom I had sex. I'm alive today 😅😅😅
Coi should interview her father as if she doesn't know him. And let him be vulnerable so she can get to know him and understand him. Healing.
Nah… for what? That man is still doing lives about her and got a bunch of strangers hating her and talking ish about her. If anything they need to do together is therapy. Zino doesn’t peg me as someone that takes accountability
Iynla Fix My Life @@lynnpear20
Pretending not to know someone would not work the way you suggest.
No she shouldn't
This interview was everything. Angie is the bomb at what she does. Hands down.
Yeah she’s definitely my fave … she’s so warm and welcoming.
i like her 100% outside her raps. she sounds normal and very articulate.. just wish she can show that with her music and stop trying to be a nikki minaj clone or a city girl groupie.@@dottyblanco
Coi is gorgeous and very talented, she seem like a sweetheart.
Coi, is super sweet and smart . Love her entire energy. As a 50 year woman listening to this interview these young women are amazing and strong . Oxox
I enjoyed this interview! Her personality is so bright, she's like that cousin that's the life of the party 💜
I'm proud of Coi 4real she's beating the odds she turned alot of hate into love. She's a grown woman now 💯
I already had this saved to my watch list. Then I heard her Father say that he didn't know that she felt this way... I was further intrigued. Only to see that this young lady is really getting it.. Life! U can't be consumed with things that U cannot change.
This was beautiful. Coi is beautiful! I'm glad that she hasn't let the not so good moments break her. She uses it as motivation. She's not sitting around playing the victim card. Kudos Angie & Coi!
Coi is A VIBE, folks counted her out & she popped out on they a$$e$! Wishing her many more years of success.
She hit the nail on the head when she said some people don’t even think they’re a bad person. That’s a fact - I often wonder like is there a soul in there when ppl just wild out for no reason.
She is absolutely stunning to look at and definitely authentic. Wasn't a big fan of her pops but it's good to see his lineage prosper
I delivered food to her a week ago. Man in person she is the most beautiful women on this earth. I was amazed how gorgeous she was.
I love the interview.. Coi is beyond pretty.. Coi is beyond beautiful.. I love the fact that this baby girl is natural.. Trust me I get it that our younger generation especially young black women are under a deeper type of pressure that I fail to comprehend. I hope that our young ladies will one day realize that they are more than enough.. Kudos to Coi for standing on her ish.. and is embodying self love..
Coi is a winner. Can’t take it from her!
Literally
Angie the GOAT fr. I love how she makes every artist feel comfortable and they’re able to open and really talk!! Coi dope interview
Super DOPE interview sis. You killed it, as usual. Coi is a butterfly. I'm so happy for her.
I love how candid she is with this interview. Angie you’re such a great interviewer. ❤😊
I watched this because I am an Angie Martinez super-fan but now I am a Coi Leray fan too. What a powerful, refreshing interview. Keep doing your thing Coi - there is no place to go but up!
Can we talk about how beautiful she is? Like wow. Never paid her any attention aside from some random tracks she has, but this made her so much more interesting and just relatable.
She is truly a star. I hope she has a great support system and plan for her life. I hope she drops the need to rescue her family and heal. It's everyone's job to contribute
Coi is so relatable, I really love the stories about her childhood and wanting more. I feel like I could definitely understand her in this interview as I feel the same way in my life. Keep pushing through Coi.
This really made me love Coi so much more. I already was a fan, but knowing she had such a relatable background really makes me love her more. ❤I want her to be an ICON as well. Good luck Coi. Angie, this was an amazing interview as usual ❤
This was amazing! Thank you Angie and your production crew for giving us a great conversation with this beautiful young lady! Keep Going 🩷
Absolutely loved this interview! She has HUGE potential, super smart and self aware! I learned so much…it’s so easy to make assumptions about people from a distance.
Angie ....your consistency and ability to give space for guests to share. Wow...teachable moments....THIS was gud gud
I can not believe he just left them high and dry like that to be evicted and starve while he was living comfortably. I grew up poor too but it's really messed up her dad had the money and just didn't help them.
I like her this is her truth. I’m not sure why her father was so upset she said there were faults in both of her parents. It’s not like she just bashed him the whole time. Plus of course if she’s struggling with her mom, that’s who’s she’s going to be closer to. He needs therapy, some parents find it hard to accept things that them and their children went through and they get mad and wanna say I did this I did that. It’s like ok you were supposed to I’m the child. But the anger shows that there wasn’t any growth. I believe her when she said he’s an angry person, you can see it in his reactions that he’s emotional. I pray they are able to mend their relationship.
Just earned a new fan! Never heard of you but just went and liked a bunch of your videos!
Such a genuine convo. I really enjoyed this!
Hey Coi & Angie! Really enjoyed watching this interview... Wishing you both well! 😘❤
I’ve always loved , respected and looked up to coi and i feel i can relate to her in some way we a year apart & especially with being slim & skinny. I love her confidence & energy and i wish her more success & genuine happiness
I couldn't stop smiling.I love this young women energy,confidence and spirit.I wish her all the best in her career.🎉 Angie Martinez interviews are always great!!❤❤❤
She’s such a vibe! I love her, esp for this younger set of women.
Thank you Angie for these intentional, impactful interviews
I’m so happy to see her in this type of format i’ve always seen her as a really beautiful soul and genuine person but I love that this has given more people a chance to see that in her . Angie just facilitates genuine and important conversation! Bless u coi keep shinning 💖💖
I love this young lady! I'm 51 and rock with her music. I see the growth and it's beautiful. Thanks Angie!❤
This needed to happen! She’s gorgeous, she’s intelligent, mature, RAW and UNCUT! Really herself! Coi’s going to take off! I absolutely love her confidence.
I loved every second of this interview! I’ve went through a similar transformation and learned to look at life in the way she speaks about choosing healthier habits and having a relationship with God. So beautiful. I pray this interview touches the minds of many young people looking to live a happier and better life, and that they would be encouraged amen.
She is growing soooo beautifully! ❤️ I loved this interview.
Loving this young lady I’ve heard of her but I’ve never heard her music so when I’m working out today, I’m definitely playing it, but I like to see our young people confident and positive about themselves because when you’re that way about you, everybody else is going to jump on board about you baby…. many blessings to you young lady, don’t ever change who you are the sky is the limit❤🙏
So, I already liked Coi's music, but I am loving this interview.
Me and a few of my friends were hella skinny in high school, but we called ourselves the thick clique. 😂
This interview made me like her even more 😍 she keeps it real! Too many celebrities do interviews and are boring asf because they want to “keep everything private” I appreciate the dolls that are transparent and dgaf what people think! ❤❤❤ TEAM COI
I love watching interviews and getting to know artists for who they are. I have a new found respect for Coi & can relate so much. Love her❤
excellent interview. angie is one of the best, flowers. coi is so refreshing - the whole package + authentic. keep going.
This was a great interview! And I love to see her transparency and how self aware she is, what a gem!
I love her energy and so proud of her growth. She has a bright future ahead for sure 💫
You are amazing Coi ❤. I love you . Thanks Angie for doing this interview you are incredible.
This interview was just AMAZING! 👏🏾👏🏾🤎🤎I've ALWAYS ❤️Angie! Coi is that CHIC!!
She’s so much more mature than when she first came out. Her growth is beautiful as well as her physical beauty. I’m glad she told her story, and ngl she has no musical talent, but she truly deserves the lifestyle she has and I’m so happy for her and proud of her success and her energy feels so genuine and sincere. She seems like she has a good heart
Great interview! It's wonderful that JaRule and his family were there for her.
Angie & Coi are both GAAAWJJS LADIES 🥰😍… I WILL BE TUNING IN!! 🙌🏽
This interview is worthy of being watched over and over again . So goodt!
This gave me so much STRENGTH!! It’s just everything like you never know what people are dealing with!! BE KIND!! ❤There’s love behind everything!!!!
This is relatable and also made me appreciate my family more. You the star but also anyone in your family can be too. Love and stay positive 🤞🏾❤️
I’m grown azz hell me listening to this interview gave me a different perspective on myself on what I need to do with myself. I definitely respect this young lady I love you Coi LeRay you keep on striving baby and you mentioned a pastor and going to church O’Jesus I love you even more I have my eye on you. Angie you are definitely an Icon this is why you have a podcast
I remember back when me and Coi were dating when she lived in Jersey and her pops was always tryna fight me lol. We had to break up cause' Benzino pulled the strap on me for sneaking in the window at 3AM! Ask Coi if I'm lying, she knows who this is! 🤣😭🤣
It was when Angie talked about finding her passion for Gulf a little over a year ago and it became her thing! I love that ! Definitely inspiring. Never give up on finding that thing that you need for grounding. ❤
Coi is so naturally gorgeous! I love her lil tom boy swag. Such a cute little lady who will keep getting better with age! Her confidence is true. She’s dope her honesty
This interview is everything 👏🏾
Always appreciate a good Coi interview 👍🏼
She is so confident that’s what makes her perfect, that’s right Coi self love is 💯
Angie you are so amazing I LOVE your interviews and Coi you are so beautiful and strong, congratulations on the success🎉❤
Amazing interview! I only knew of one song of Coi and the nasty lives benzino does about her. I absolutely love her
She is gorgeous i never really actually looked at her n very well spoken she is beautiful ❤️ & talented she gave it this interview ❤ her energy is EVERYTHING!!
This was a dope interview!!!
Really really really love this interview of Coi. She has so much awareness, big heart, brave, hustler, ambitious and raw and honest and kind and bright person. Love it and someone like her is gonna get it.
I support my clients by promoting fitness as a lifestyle change, which involves improving your mental health. Love how you mention this, Coi. I'm happy for your growth and ambition to be and do better❤❤❤
She so engaging and impressive especially for her age. Soooo many ppl say “I wanna be the next Rihanna” but I could see her actually achieving that.
Definitely won of my favs. I enjoyed that. Thank you 💕
She gets that confidence from her mother and she gets her hustle drive from her daddy, she gets her North star direction from people leading her to GOD (best of all worlds). God bless you Coi
you dont know her or her family, yall are werid
@@djim839 And neither do you but guess what. She is a public person on a public platform. I guess you're going to have to go after every commentary channel then on an influencer or celebrity (as well as their family). I said what I said.
Loved this interview
I love love love Coi, she's so sweet and honest. Angie is always great. Her parents were young hustling still for themselves and didn't know how to be a family, that's hard. She should keep always communicating with her mom and heal from her dad. It's good she wants more for herself, look at where it's got her.
I saw Coi perform at Afro nation in Detroit, she was absolutely gorgeous and her performance was 🔥🔥🔥.. Coi if u read this I love your style keep being authentic!
Awesome interview‼️
Love this interview ❤ she is going to be an icon
Coi you were an icon from day 1 to anyone, us, looking in from the far outside of it all. And it's been a joy seeing you work and people catch up.
Great Interview! Angie🔥🔥🔥
I was never a big coi fan …. But this … right here … definitely got me as a supporter now
Great interview, her honesty was the best❤❤
Great episode. I love Angie & Coi ❤
This interview made me a fan ❤
💜💜💜 great interview, per usual
This was a bomb interview and Coi is beautiful! 😍
Acknowledging you have to grow and appreciating your growth....is beautiful
She bodied this interview the vibe that she has jumps out the screen at you I applaud her and wish her nothing but the best
I'm 25 turning 26 pretty soon I love the advice she gave. This was an amazing interview definitely my favorite ❤
I definitely appreciate thia interview. She is definitely very much 26 but the growth is there and maturity to self acess, that most youngins dont have. I do hope she doesnt let fame/money consume her tho. Best wishes to her
Gr8 interview. I love hearing ppl story, she's beautiful & strong more blessings to Coi
Coi is so pretty i love this look she has going on in this interview, especially her hair its beautiful looks healthy.
❤ the interview. Great vibe
What a strong woman very inspiring never giving up and perseverance she gives now to her mom and to herself what her dad never gave them! Her test turned into a testimony! Don’t despise humble beginnings:))
Would love to see a collaboration with Coi and Tyla ! That would be magic! 💫
I really enjoyed this interview.
Good interview !
This was a great interview. Coi is soooo transparent. I think it's super healthy and positive for her to be able to speak her truth. She seems poised, has her level of confidence and courage. When she said she felt her dad was supposed to be available and teach her and her siblings about life (21:30) is real.
Angie definitely has that effect on people having them star struck and paralyzed lol. Excellent journalist, authentic and down to earth. She's not messy and never let her status swell her head with the long list of amazing accolades. What I enjoy about her interviews is how comfortable her guests are and she's not about the gossip. She deserves her own television talk show.
What an amazing interview.
