Where the ladies at?

Seriously. Where are the ladies at? (Also a question heard around my apartment on a nightly basis.)

When you get a chance, read this Slate article on the dearth of female rappers.

Good overview on the history of the female rapper and why we don't see that many. Article ends on a hopeful note with mentions of hipster-favorite Kid Sister and current pop chart topper M.I.A.

Although who really knows when the long-awaited Kid Sister album will actually drop.

Here's the most recent single from Kid Sister. Wasn't a huge fan, but here it is anyway.

The Count & Sinden - Beeper (feat. Kid Sister)



And one of my favorite M.I.A. songs remixed with some verses from Wale.

M.I.A. - Boyz (remix feat. Wale)
