I think it was dream hampton who wrote about how women - especially women of colour - listen and appreciate gangsta rap styles and somehow listen 'beyond' what could be construed as misogynism. Let's be frank: the truth is that sexism is not deemed as offensive cuturally as racism, accuse a racist

I also loved Moodymann and Andres. To me it's a
