No one said she must wear earth colours and headwraps or even be conscious for that fact. :roll: From past issues, I got the impression that the soul sista is meant to be inspirational in some way and trust me, I wouldn't want my kids looking up to someone like that,not even my dog. Obviously this whole music thing is purley about entertainment to her. It's not a reflection of her true personality. Don't know her and this is not a personal attack to the individual, I just don't like the image she's portraying. The fact that the only substance there is to her lyrics is her sexual description of shit bores the f*** out of me. :x She makes it seem as though the only soul she has is the shit between her legs. Who gives a f*** about the different positions you can take it up the a**? :evil: Even lil'kim has better things to rap about even though she's also explicit. I don't want to listen to an mc and have to say WOW,that's a nice female/male mc. I want to say nice mc!
It's different strokes for different folks so you can go ahead and support bullshit and excuse f***ed up music just because it from a hot girl.Skwatta does a crap album and everyone is on their case. D.I talks bullshit and suddenly it's ok coz she's bringing in a different element. f*** that.I'm not going to make excuses and settle for shit just because there's a lack of "female mcs" :!:
So on what basis do u say she doesn't qualify as a Soul Sista.What criteria are u using or do u suggest we or HYPE for that matter should use. Coz to me Soul sita/brothahood is more than skin deep.
She certainly seems like a feminist to me.This is not about some sort of Hip-Hop affirmative action.
I'm not excusing her skillz coz there's a shortage of femal MCs.Her stuff appeals to me on a comedic level.Same reason I listen to Snoop, Dr Dre, Eminem Lil' Kim and NWA. Their shit honestly is funny as hell to me and that's how her stuff comes across to me as well. So I like her material for its entertainment value. She fits quite well within a certain sub-genre of Hip-Hop.
As far as how she can take it up the a**, I don't think she literally means it, its just to shock and entertain.It also makes me laugh bcoz of the irony created by the raunchiness of what she's saying in contrast to her looks and age which are deceptively innocent.
So to me given what she raps about and how she actually lives she's very responsible and focused. She's a female hustler and a feminist. Like Trina or Kim. She's also keeping it true to the father of her child as well the child without giving up on her own dreams.
What I also admire about her situation is that both her and the man are doing things together.They're a Hip-Hop family and I respect them for that.
Clearly the attractions and lure of the game have not blinded her from what's really important in life.I don't know what could be more inspirational than that.
Like u said tho'its different strokes for different folks and if u don't feel her then u just don't feel her period.
