Ladies First: Virginia Women in Hip-Hop

Join the Virginia Hip-Hop Foundation and the VMHC for a panel discussion on the role and impact of Virginia women on hip-hop and hear from the people themselves.

Hip-Hop culture is one of the biggest influences on modern American society. Today’s creations in music, art, fashion, and popular culture all can be connected to elements of hip-hop.

Hip-Hop as a music genre and industry can be very much perceived as a male dominant space, but the impact of women throughout the history of hip-hop has been significant. Specifically, women from Virginia have been instrumental in the hip-hop community for decades.

To celebrate women’s history month, join the Virginia Hip-Hop Foundation and the VMHC for an interactive conversation about the influences, experiences, and impact women from Virginia have had in hip-hop.

Special guests for the event include The Lady of Rage, Farrah Fawx, Mikki Spencer, June Jones, Justice R, and Dr. KáLyn Coghill.
