Description

Ever feel like all the music you hear is male voices? I’ve gone (too) many years listening to primarily hetero male artists, and am often disappointed to find that my wrapped at the end of the year is 90% men. But non-hetero/cis-male artists just don't get the same representation. So, I decided to do a week of purification.

Join me on my journey of exploring non-mysoginous music and the effects of feeling respected for a week.

Some women artists I dove into during my week:

R&b: Summer Walker, Yebba, Jasmine Sullivan, Ravyn Lenae, Corinne Bailey Rae, Jorja Smith, SZA, Kali Uchis, Rihanna

Rap (fr): Theodora, Surprise, Creamy G, Lala &ce, Akissi, Davinhor, Kay the prodigy, Asinine, Miki

Rap: Rico Nasty, Doechii, Little Simz, SZA, Ms. Lauryn Hill

Extras: The Marías, Nao, Charli XCX, Shygirl, M. I. A, Nia Archives, Brazy
