Career and Success
Amina appearing in Yeezy Season
Growing up, Amina always knew that she wanted to be a model. Although she bolstered desirable measurements at 32''-18''-34'', people often discouraged her due to her height standing at 5'1'' and her tattoos. Amina first got her break at 19-year-old as a video vixen, appearing in videos for Fabolous, ASAP Ferg, and Rich Gang. In 2012, Amina was cast for Yeezy Season 1 which was a turning point in her career.
Along with Kanye, Amina has worked with legendary fashion editor Carine Roitfeld whom she considers a good friend. Today, Amina has her own female vegan fashion shoe line and garnered an impressive following on Instagram totaling over 555,000 followers.
