“Rock The Mic” - The UK Female Allstars & Mikey J

So after last years excellent stage performance it was only right that they follow it up with a video. “Rock The Mic” features the UK Female Allstars which are A Dot, Baby Blue, Lioness, RoxXxan, Mz Bratt and Lady Leshurr and production from Mikey J.

Each artist has been busy for a number of years working on their own solo projects and building a name for themselves so It's nice to see them getting together to collaborate, . I feel female mc's don't get as much love here as they do in the States, but that's slowly changing with these mc's.

So sit back and check out the video produced by the The Soul Culture media power house.

"Miss Representation":

PLEASE watch this video not only is it an important topic close to my heart but I feel it is something we should all be concerned about. MISS REPRESENTATION is directed by Jennifer Siebel Newsom, and explores how mainstream media contributes to the under-representation of women in influential positions in America and challenges the media's limiting and often disparaging portrayals of women, which make it difficult for the average girl to see herself as powerful.

This kind of representation happens in so many other area's especially in hip-hop where female rappers I feel are made to portray themselves in a more sexual look to get any type of recognition. Women in the board room who are focused and show leadership may be labeled a bitch where as a guy may be seen as being assertive.

I am really pleased about this movie and would love to see the full version. I am completely down with Jennifer's action for call. We can all make a difference, I know if I ever have daughters I will be sure to provide them with the right balance of information of strong women leaders, thinkers, doers out there, I can’t expect the media to do it …well just not yet any way.

Kreayshawn (White Girl Mob) - Gucci Gucci [Video]

One of our passions are multi-talented and functional individuals and Kreayshawn fits nicely into this. Not only is this chick from Northern California a Director, Cinematographer, Editor, DJ, Pixel Artist, but she also raps. Coming from a musical household where her mom was in a girl punk-surf fusion band and also a step dad who was a rapper/DJ. It only seemed the natural progression for Kreayshawn to end up in the music business.

VladTV's Top 40 Female Rappers

VladTV's caught up with Pete Rock and Camp Lo to discuss their top 40 Female Rappers list . Apparently this list caused a lot of heated discussions and comments. It's a touchy subject expecially with the recent female rappers beefs that has been going around!

I am suprised to see Fergie (Black Eyed Peas) on the list. And what about the likes of Eternia, Psalm One, Amanda Diva, and Invincible to name just a few...could go on lets not forget the Mc's in Europe, Australia and Asia.

What are you options on their comments and the actual list.

Would have been nice to have some women on the panal!

DJ Premier and Dynasty - Epic Dynasty

Born and raised in Queens, Dynasty (Diana Hardy) is what I call a proper emcee. Dynasty has been on the scene for a number of year's even though it has been some what in the background. She got her big break when she co-signed with DJ Premier who put her last single “Femcee” on his “On Tha Road Again” mixtape.

This was followed up by her next single “Epic Dynasty” which DJ Premier also placed on his compilation album, Get Used to Us.
