Women Love Hip Hop, They Put Two Hands Up

Women love hip hop ! There was a phase when women would bow there heads in shame at how rappers depicted women. They were used as sex symbols, objectified, was only seen as a prized possession. However times are changing, there is more than one song that women can sing along too and feel uplifted. Thanks to rappers like Drake, Jay-Z, Common, and Wale; women can sing along and be proud of the lyrics they are chanting. On my Tumblr I went through all the ways hip hop is changing , how it is changing, and how why. I look at varios different videos where women are fully clothed and still have sex appeal. I focus on lyrics and rappers and the message they are trying to deliver. I will deliver my project through Tumblr. 
I discuss how rappers are showing more respect to the women in their lives, and how family and love is being embraced.
