"NOW FROM THE TOP! MAKE IT DROP FOR THIS WAP!" - A Wise Woman 

Over a glass of Spain's Lecco Crianza, I get into some wet-ass drama. Female rap has been a gateway to liberating women over the world. After the large amount of criticism that Cardi B and Meg the Stallion received for their new song, I wanted to discuss the double standards and the confusion on what role women are "supposed" to take in society. Always giving my support to women living their best lives like no one is looking.
