Girls Rock 2

Atlanta Hip Hop mainstay Señor Kaos tells the world why Girls Rock Too!

With rap music being at the center of discussions about misogyny and male attitudes toward women, the song “Girls Rock Too” by Señor Kaos was made to promote the opposite message.

A few years ago Don Imus came out and called the Rutgers female basketball team “Nappy Headed Hoes” and got away with it by blaming it on Hip Hop. It was at this point Señor Kaos became fed up and decided that it was a time for a Hip Hop anthem women everywhere could be proud off.

“I decided to make a song that countered the negative stereotypes and imagery oftentimes perpetuated in the media and in Hip Hop about women. The result is a song you can play in front of anybody. I can play this song in front of my mother, my grandmother, and my younger cousins, it’s something everyone can relate too.”

For every Hip Hop song that degrades women, theres 30 more that don’t, that you never hear on the radio! here’s a perfect example of a positive song made a young African American male. “I made this song with hopes to enlighten people of the female accomplishments that have been forgotten about. You have adults with children who refuse to let their kids listen to the music because of the messages that are associated with it. At the end of the day, I would love to see the media talk about this song the same way they talked about “Tip Drill” by Nelly. People love to focus on the negative side of Hip Hop, but the positives are all around us, therefore Girls Rock Too was created.” - Señor Kaos
