Ms. Jams Topic of Conversation-Women In Hip Hop
To many, hip hop is more than just a culture. It’s a way of life. But what happens when a culture starts to dictate the way we look at ourselves and the people around us. Cultures are vastly man-made. And I say that because, cultures are simply styles, ideas, and methods that others tend to copy and make mainstream. So in that sense, culture is man-made. Culture can also be changed. But sometimes a culture becomes such a standard that to go against it, makes you stand apart and often times alienates you. So what ends up happening is that the culture is just accepted as the “way it is” and those who don’t believe usually have a hell of a time trying to change people’s minds.
I say this simply as background to my point that hip hop degrades women. And before everyone gets all upset about it lets look at the facts. Women appear in majority of hip hop videos. And in majority of those videos, they are scantily clad, viewed as objects to be bought, dumbed down to look like gold diggers and to appear lazy. The rapper with the nicest car gets to take me home tonight in it. You’ve got a lot of money so you can have me too. I’m only as good as the body part I show off. Etc. Women who appear in hip hop videos that aren’t scantily clad are usually, the exception to the rule and never the norm. In fact, the same rappers that have respectable looking women in their videos are usually the ones who are making positive statements. And usually those same artists are not rapping about the same thing.
Now I’m not going to sit here and say that women are inanimate and we don’t have minds and mouths to speak up but look at it this way. What choice do some have? Some women really are talented besides their bodies and they want to make it into the industry. But just to get on a set I swear you have to be nearly naked. To get any form of attention you have to play like an object and that is really sad. No woman could walk on the set of a rappers video in a power suit and a brief case without all the dudes thinking they were getting “served” or someone hired them a stripper. There is no happy medium in the rap game. You are either all about your business as a woman or you are a video ho. There are no average sized, middle class moms, with glasses chillen on the set of a Nelly video. (Unless his mom is there…)
I don’t think the main problem is that the women are being degraded, it’s the complacency behind it all; the fact that no one seems to care or even challenge the system except the “positive” rappers. My question is, when did the negativity take over? When did the raunchy rap take over the rap that tells a story and uplifts the nation? When did backing it up take over being a good role model? I know sex sells but damn, didn’t smart people invent our economy? (I guess not, or it wouldn’t be in shambles…….) Isn’t the sexiest thing about a woman her brain? And if you say “no” then you too are part of the problem. That woman shaking her ass in your favorite video could be your mom, sister, niece, girlfriend or aunt. And to say “my ___ is smarter than that or better than that…” does it really matter at this point? No one’s interested in a woman’s brain anyway according to our society.

C.U.R.E. Artshow Flow w/lyrics
you was busy tryna convince the world that you was gangsta/
we bout to take over the world like jewish bankers/
and im bout to raise the interest rates/
im snatchin meals right up off of niggas dinner plates/
uh....like, nigga what u gonna do?
what'll make it worse is when i eat it right in front of you
then i'll watch you starve, you in trouble now/
you aint got no bread like a kfc double down/
we get bread on top of cheese, thats a money sandwich
you niggas wouldnt get the picture with a hundred cameras/
cee countin money, ant makin business calls/
tell that nigga call my lawyer cuz im killin yall/
i aint hatin im just really not feelin yall/
you niggas brokeback...jake gyllenhaal
niggas aint stickin to the script
so the tip of my .... is stickin to your girl lip
im nasty for a reason cuz i feel like its the season
to give you whack rappers a lyrical ass beatin/
im wide awake workin while everyone else is sleepin/
but my eyes' kinda low...this haze i been cheifin/
i call that higher learning, nigga fuck college/
ima sponge nigga, i soak up knowledge/
this is G shit...what ya know bout it?/
im no scholar but GOTDAMN my flow's polished/
i guarantee i spazz out on any track/
chillin like a mack, sippin henny black/
i know they want me stressed, but im so relaxed/
they like, "damn that nigga cure's just the coldest cat"
u know it jack, black umbrella we on/
bring it back, touchdown, primetime- deion/
got your girl ass up and face down/
u suspect like R. Kelly at a playground/
i call this the artshow flow, so------
-phisticated, broke niggas hate it/
cuz im their girl's new favorite
im all on her Ipod playlist, i say that to say this
next year i'll be in every magazine's pages
lookin fly takin pictures while im faded/
smellin like that good kush fragrance/
my arrogance is so blatant, my heart is so vacant/
i have no patience, no time wasted
they cant think on my level, their mind is basic
im in the public eye and still feel blind hatred
but dont cry for me mama i'll make it
word to this blunt that im smokin on
u niggas ashy as fuck go put some lotion on
number 9 is the cloud that im floatin on/
im the one the whole rap game's hope is on
dont quote me wrong, but if i said it i meant it
i gives a fuck if you're offended, this is instant vintage
you was on twitter, i was in the trenches
my flows crazy, yours is just senseless
yall cant see me, no witness
credit cards like master p nigga no limits
charge it to the game baby, no scrimmage
no hook on this track, all spittage
you the cashier, im the boss wit it
first task on the job is silence all critics
i give em all lyrics, no gimmicks
im so trill, this is no image
or facade or a character
givin yall my life story, im the narrator
makin niggas get on their jobs like im the manager
u remind me of a photoshoot w/no camera....(niggas just posin)

(New Music)- C.U.R.E. - Luxury Livin
">
I just landed in Miami whats poppin tonight???
Might just blow a couple grand goin shoppin tonight
lifestyle of luxury, this verse is just a summary
shorty fuck wit me, she sees im livin comfortably
black jordan 6's with purple and yellow stitches
chronic rolled in the swishers, bare witness to how we live it
5 star hotel suites, fuck you gon tell me?
i be half baked like dave chappelle be, ya smell me?
white folks starin, the loud smell is apparent
bad shorty wit me, we just cruisin through the city
i let her drive- i just twist the trees, no sticks or seeds
peep the flow i switch the speed, trust me im a different breed
you niggas basic i can see the hate on all your faces
mama we made it with no help from satan or the masons
G-status in foreign places wit dimes fornicatin
this was written. i was born to make it. C.U.R.E.
(talking)
2nd verse
stop it, drop it, i got this
keys like a janitor i locked it
i make whack rappers pack their lyrics up in boxes
toxic, yeah im the cure, but you cannot say im not sick
a beast on beats this industry's my feast
i wont stop until im too fat to sit in my seat
after that, stop the beat- good grief
no relief. for whack mc's i got beef
i aint fuckin wit none of yall
fact is im sooooo far ahead in front of yall
you niggas out ya lane like a gutterball
my pockets all fat like a butterball
i remember when my niggas hustled in coveralls
when i get rich i promise, ima take a summer off
cuz ima teacher to the niggas on their grind
with money on their mind, cuz their runnin outta time
Im the illest nigga spittin from my generation
them
case closed, sneakerhead so you know a nigga lace flows
dont bring ya girl around, my squad is known to take those
you niggas in the club dancin like FaBo
we in business meetings calculatin payroll
all a nigga do is lay low
and count stacks, write rhymes and bounce back...
nigga what u know about that? C.U.R.E
