Hip Hop 101 for Baby Boomers
It's Ladies Night!
The last session on Too $hort offended more than a few of the females in the class. So as promised, today we will be looking at pro-female rap songs. First let's let the ladies speak for themselves. Here are two of the greatest MC's of all time, regardless of gender, Roxanne Shanté and MC Lyte.
And now let's listen to some proud black men talk about how much they love women.
Old School De La Soul:
Tupac:
New School De La Soul:
Next time we'll get the progressive politics out of our system with a look at left-wing socialist and Black Nationalist rappers. Then we'll get back to straight musicology with a listen to the Greatest Producer of All Time, DJ Premier.

Tupac was IT...what a waste. Thanks for taking the time to educate us. Looking forward to some "Marxist rap".
