overlooked&unappreciated.


"nigga have you seen the uncut Nelly video!" - marley.

In 2007, BET created a forum to talk about the state of hip hop. The panel included intellectuals like Eric Michael Dyson and Rev. Al Sharpton and rap artists like T.I. and Nelly. In heated debates talking about everything from music effecting kids to the language and subjects in songs, the forum seemed to be against hip hop. But one aspect that got shafted in the rear with no vaseline was the state of the hip hop honeys. The forum seemed to believe that most of these girls are individuals who do not respect themselves and just believe they are a piece of meat. But in there defense I am here. I love these women, from there high cheekbones to curvacious bods. These women saved many rappers and video directors careers. Some even lasted longer than most rappers. Now don't get me wrong these women sometimes do portray themselves to be bitches, hoes, sluts and such but wasn't Halle Berry taking backshots from Billy Bob Thornton? And she won an Oscar. To me its all acting and some people can't get around that factor. For years, I worshiped these woman, because as a young adolescent these females are our goddesses and mermaids of TV. In time you have seen the pretty face innocent video chick (Lauren London) to the straight stacked full rib rack bods (Buffy the Body) and all have captured our "minds" at a time. I really appreciate these women. They are more than meets the eye and I really believe they deserve more respect in the game. This post is for you ladies, all of you.

NOTE: Melyssa Ford is the best to ever do it.
