Fans claimed they wanted variety, but often only supported the women who came packaged in ways they already recognized.

A male rapper can be a gangster, a lover, a weirdo, a backpacker, a drug dealer, a poet, a clown, a mogul, a liar, preacher, scammer, sex addict, nerd, a killer, a philosopher, or all of the above. Nobody demands that he fix the reputation of men in rap before he drops a single.

The industry loved the “first lady of the crew” setup. That title sounds good until you realize how often it made women secondary inside their own stories.

Reduce the music to the image.

Reduce the image to the body.

Reduce the body to competition.

Then act like the women are the problem.

[Fierce Flows @FierceFlows_]

Women in hip-hop came in all kinds of forms. They were party-rockers. Battle rappers. Fly girls. Street poets. Crew members. Singers. Dancers. Lyricists. Hood reporters. Pretty girls. Rough girls. Conscious girls. Nasty girls. Around-the-way girls.
