In this episode, we discuss our narrow options when it comes to who is considered authentic and inauthentic hip-hop. Since hip-hop has been heavily dominated by the survival driven, hyper-masculine, straight black male, our mold for who is authentic only accommodates those who identify as such. Anyone else outside of that is considered "wack." I want to discuss what this means for black representations, how we got here, and what we can do to broaden the scope of black bodies and voices we see and hear in hip-hop.
