“I’m overdue for the top spot.”
It’s hard out here for women in Hip Hop. And although the door has been kicked wide open for up and coming rap chicks since the emergence of Nicki Minaj, they are still finding it hard to get the respect that they are due.
Brianna Perry is a Miami-bred rapper on the come up and she is airing out her grievances with the rap industry on a track titled, ‘Dear Hip Hop’. In the letter to ‘Hip Hop’, which uses a sample of Carrie Underwood’s ‘Before He Cheats’ for the chorus, she raps about not being respected enough to make it to XXL’s Freshman Class cover (that cover sure did create a lot of controversy didn’t it?) or MTV’s Hottest MCs list. Meanwhile, she uses an ignited copy of this year’s Freshmen Class Issue as a backdrop to the video. She also lists a few reasons why she probably doesn’t have a bigger buzz.
