Say My Name

saymy_Name

Wednesday 30 March 7pm

Sisters, mothers, businesswomen, role models, music artists—in an industry dominated by men and noted for misogyny, the unstoppable female lyricists of Say My Name speak candidly about class, race, and gender in pursuing their passions as female MCs.

 From hip hop’s birthplace in the Bronx to the ladies of grime on London’s eastside, emerging artists to world renowned stars like MC Lyte, Monie Love, Roxanne Shanté, Estelle, Erykah Badu and many more, these are women turning adversity into art.
