“Glory”- Jay Z


“Before I got in the game, made a change and got rich / I didn’t think about using the word bitch / I rapped, I flipped it, I sold it, I lived it / Now with my daughter in this world I curse those that give it / No man will degrade her and call her names.”


“Keep Shining” – Shad

“There’s no girls rappin’ so we’re only hearin’ half the truth/What we have to lose? Too much/Half our youth aren’t represented, the better halves of dudes/So we don’t hear about your brain, just your brains/How you rock a fella, Stacey Dash dames/We just need your voice like an a capella/Something in the music’s gotta change…My mom taught me where to keep my heart/My aunts taught me how to sing two parts/My sis taught me how to parallel park/Tried to teach me math but she’s way too smart/My grandma in her 80′s is still sharp/My girl cousin’s an activism at art/They taught me there’s no curls too tight/No mind to bright/No skin too dark to keep shining.


 Independent – Webbie ft Lil’ Phat and Lil’ Boosie

“She’ll buy her own/I don’t think she’ll never look/in a man face waitin’ for him to take care of her/She’ll rather go to work and pay the bills on schedule…I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T do you know what that mean?”


Drake- Good Girls Gone Bad


““Respect women, I don’t care if they a 2 or a 10/ we don’t beat on Kat Stacks we just bring it to an end”


“Nothin’ On You” – B.o.B. ft. Bruno Mars

Time to heal our women, be real to our women/And if we don’t we’ll have a race of babies/that will hate the ladies, that make the babies/And since a man can’t make one/He has no right to tell a woman when and where to create one/So will the real men get up/I know you’re fed up ladies, but keep your head up
