Gina Views, aka “Your Favorite Homegirl,” has become one of the most influential and respected voices representing Los Angeles. A radio host, media personality, entrepreneur, and cultural connector, Gina has built her name from the ground up—turning her natural charisma, sharp ear for talent, and deep love for West Coast music into a powerhouse media career.
Raised in Los Angeles under a strict but supportive father, Gina was always social, outgoing, and well known. In school, she held leadership roles in senior class council, worked on yearbook, newspaper, and held multiple editorial positions—early signs of her future in media. Even as a kid, she knew entertainment was her lane. She dreamed of hosting 106 & Park, and people around her constantly affirmed what she would later lean into: she had a radio voice built for the mic.
Her passion for music crystallized the day she heard Lil Wayne’s “Pussy, Money, Weed” and found herself breaking down the lyrics with friends. It sparked something. Gina realized she wasn’t just listening to music—she was studying it. Being surrounded by artists and tapped into every corner of the city, she saw an opportunity to spotlight the talent she grew up with. That moment planted the seed for the cyphers that would later help define her brand.
When she attempted to apply for an interview position at 106 & Park, Gina realized she had no resume or catalogue of interviews to show. So instead of waiting for the industry to hand her a lane, she built her own.
Eventually she created her own platform, launching the show “Hoefessions,” where she sat down with artists such as AZ Chike, Kalan.FrFr, ASM Bopster, G Perico, OMB Peezy, RJMrLA, and many more—cementing herself as a trusted voice giving real shine to West Coast talent.
Her influence and work ethic eventually took her from homegrown hustler to national voice. Gina is now the co-host of SiriusXM’s “Effective Immediately” alongside DJ Hed, bringing authentic West Coast energy to listeners across the country.
Her impact extends across some of the biggest stages and platforms in music and culture. She has appeared or been featured on PANDORA, ESSENCE Festival, REVOLT TV, Hip Hop Nation, Hoefessions, The Gathering Spot, No Jumper, Rolling Loud, BET, Caffeine TV, Power 106, Sway’s Universe, SiriusXM, NAMM, McDonald’s, Pro Club, Shaka Wear, and many more.
From breaking down bars in her neighborhood to becoming one of the most well-connected and respected figures in West Coast media, Gina Views is proof that authenticity, hustle, and heart can take you exactly where you’re meant to be. A true homegrown favorite, she continues to amplify her city, elevate new artists, and remind everyone why she truly is “Your Favorite Homegirl.”
