Women are taking up more space in hip-hop than ever before. We talked to rising artists like yungbabytate, PRINCESSDIGITAL, and DiamondAtl about the changes they’ve seen, and their inspirations
"Growing up, I didn’t have too much access to the internet. When I was able to explore music on my own I was listening to Lil' Kim, Foxy Brown, and Trina, and thinking to myself, I wish that I could feel that free. I didn’t feel like I could because it wasn’t something that was accepted yet.
There’s this younger generation of women who feel a lot more uninhibited by societal rules that were programmed into the older generation. I think that’s helping, especially with so much access to the Internet. I was one of those girls who, growing up, didn’t necessarily see that type of representation I see now, so I didn’t know it existed. This new generation has a lot more role models, and I think they are what our future looks like.
