What female rappers like Lauryn Hill are even getting signed today? There’s hardly anyone to support bro
Chika and Rapsody are reminiscent of them off the top of my head. Bree Runway is reminiscent of Missy, as is Yung Baby Tate. support them.
who tf listens to music to put society forward
the values that are being promoted through pop culture definitely help with shaping what's positive and what's negative
so yeah, music does have a lot to do with pushing the society forward / or backward
but what's forward to somebody is backward for somebody else, so it's all just subjective
"Music has a big influence on people. Most will chalk it up to “well if you’re so easily influenced that’s your own fault”, which is just the stupidest goddamn argument ever. Same goes for violence and d*** rap."
No it isnt. You are in control of yourself, and you can't abdicate your personal responsibility because of what you listened too. Even if you are too low impulse control to not let the music influence you, you can choose not to listen to it.
For this to be true we have to examine every issue in the world and just chalk it up to “well s*** they should’ve avoided that” or “it’s because they lacked personal responsibility” which is just not true. People are influenced and led, thats the entire point of business: to get you to buy into something.
Also we need to acknowledge that children are the most at risk.

What's your top 5 rappers list currently?
Yup, I blame the industry for enabling it such that it was only possible for artists like nicki and cardi to be a thing
But back in the day when music labels didn't really care to police women in rap (likely because they didn't imagine rap as even being in the realm for women), we saw really talented women like them make a huge impact. And I think since then, women in hip hop have been marginalized a lot more by studios to be presented in a certain way or else
This is exactly how I feel too. I don’t think that there aren’t good female rappers, but I don’t think they get promoted to us AT ALL
y’all say s*** like this but everytime Rapsody or Chika drop something it’s CRICKETS on this forum
to be fair though, OP is talking specifically about why the industry doesn't push artists like them. Rhapsody literally got a Grammy nomination, and yet she may as well be an obscure artist in the genre with how she gets no love.
people posting noname actual music just get responded to with "stupid b**** whisper rapper shut up" too
every single one of her threads filled with slander when most times she’s making a point with whatever she’s saying
Which came first? We loved her before she spoke up for herself
I was never a fan outside of a few songs on telefone
Idk if I’m hungover but I don’t completely understand your thread
I’m trying though
Like the only way to be successful in the industry is by being a w****?
your avi is so hot
I was never a fan outside of a few songs on telefone
So the latter came first. Great

Rhapsody is an incredible artist. Definitely recommend her recent album, which is close to great imo.

Do you have empirical evidence
Yes social media and the current state of women and men not trusting each other. I’m outside, I see the s***.

back to my point, industry support boils down to support of fans. Doja was on RCA’s backburner with her alt R&B s*** until people started f***ing with Moo on twitter and it randomly went viral
Yeah at least with the older generation of stripper rapper chicks could actually rap
Yes social media and the current state of women and men not trusting each other. I’m outside, I see the s***.
So: no

bullshit, I'm sure most of the artists you listen to don't have a clean record, but hold women to a higher standard to prove a point
