I was blown away at the premiere of Say My Name, an incredible documentary created by Mamamess (The always kickass Nirit Peled and Dave Hemmingway.) This documentary celebrates the diversity and strength of women who have defied the odds, found their voice and fought hard to fulfill their dreams.
"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 and Monie Love, these are women turning adversity into art."
The film is screening all over the globe these days, so check out their blog and see if you can catch it. Beautiful and inspiring. Clink.
