I think women should start "running" hip hop. It would be a whole new look for the world and the way hip hop is portrayed. I also agree with Aya de Leon that if women ran hip hop then the violence rate would decrease, not because their raps are more girly but they won't be rapping about getting shot or drugs, etc. Many people probably think that hip hop would be terrible if ran by a women.
In my opinion female artist/rapper Nicki Minaj runs hip hop better than anyone else right now despite all the other competing artists she stands out the most because she is a women. Surprisingly it's not just females that like her music the men do too, which isn't very common in our society or if they do like it then they don't show it.
This link just displays some of the things people say about her and her most famous quotes from her music and also how girls look up to her etc. http://hubpages.com/hub/Top-10-Nicki-Minaj-Quotes
I do feel like a lot of girls look up to her, as men do to rappers.
I feel like it would be a whole new movement for music and I feel like it would just be a good thing.
I went on youtube and looked her up. Her songs are alright, but my favorite female rapper is T(Tasha). She's half Korean and half African American and raps about her racial situation in her song, Black Happiness. She's one of the first female rapper who I have listen to that could actually rap; and she doesn't dress in that typically way rap music videos portray women.
