I just found this rapper on Youtube and I wanted to share. She's called Shay D and she's awesome

How can a boy be remorseful
When theres toys under the tree like grand theft auto
Violence to women as if normal
So disillusioned by the images in pornos
Who is the object and who gets to be forceful
Who makes the money whose at at the top and more so
Who decides whats sexy and whats voluptuous

If you want to support female rappers you can follow her on Twitter @ShayDRap Finding a woman spitting bars like this in an industry like Hip Hop Flowers

What do you think? Found your new #GirlCrush?

@QuarksandLeptons I know right! We have to support this kind of thing don't we?

She's good. Thanks for posting this.

Love this one too. Kiran (Madame) Gandhi - touring drummer for M.I.A.

I heard Amy Poehler speak at the White House
Her words hit me hard like a light bulb
Fictitious depictions of girls must die out
If we want to live in a world that triumphs

I am just talking about loving the femme
I ain't talking bout nobody else
Toxic masculinity has to end
I am just talking about loving ourselves

You can catch me singing these words
In a black Otherwild “Future is Female” t-shirt
Like AY! Me, I got something to say
Gender constructions just get in the way
I've been playing drums since I was like 8
The future is female, the future is great!

The future is female
The future is female

Own your voice don't be afraid
There's power in what you say
Own your voice don't be afraid
There's power in what you say

How could girly ever be an insult?
All the women I know are ones moving culture
What would happen if we all would lead with a little less aggression more femininity?
We have to value girls more than their looks
The biggest threat is a girl with a book
The system must make room for all that we do
We've been bleeding each month till we gave birth to you!

[speech]
To me, “The Future is female” means that no longer will female qualities be subordinated to male qualities
I want to live in a world that is collaborative
A world that is emotionally intelligent
A world in which we are linked and not ranked!

The future is female
The future is female

Own your voice don't be afraid
There's power in what you say
Own your voice don't be afraid
There's power in what you say

The future is female
The future is female
The future is female
The future is female

I also really like 'Time' by Chase & Status ft Deliliah as it raises awareness of of DV and links to Refuge at the end.

WARNING: The video could be very triggering as it depicts graphic DV

Shay’s friend with whom she often shares a stage - MC Angel - is also excellent. She recently published a memoir
