Anattitude<\/a> magazine #4 \u201cHip Hop is…\u201d<\/p>\n

Hip Hop is Anattitude, it\u2019s all about having an attitude in Hip Hop.<\/p>\n

The title of the new issue \u201cHip Hop is…\u201d could also be a New York special issue, because most of the ladies featured are coming from overseas. But that\u2019s not a statement, in this case, it\u2019s just a coincidence.
\nBut it\u2019s there where it all started\u2026 Anattitude wanted to precise what Hip Hop is all about. So we talked to a lot of different women from all Hip Hop elements which all have in common their old hands in Hip Hop culture. And then we
\nwanted to ask more people about Hip Hop, to collect their personal thoughts on it. So we spread the \u201cHip Hop is…\u201d PDF worldwide and the small zine is the result. Anyone could contribute and the results are amazing.
\nBut let\u2019s start…<\/p>\n

Hip Hop is about the MC\u2026 Hip Hop is like back in the day when I listened to Roxanne Shant\u00e9 battling every MC. To introduce Miss Shant\u00e9 there is no need for words! Shant\u00e9 is a living legend, she wrote Hip Hop history overnight at age 14 (1984) because she wanted to have a pair of jeans. Shant\u00e9 paved the way for all later coming female MCs like nobody else and now, 25 years later, she is professor Dr. Shant\u00e9 and tells us her own Hip Hop history and why she quitted Hip Hop to gain an education. This interview is full of attitude and simply legendary!<\/p>\n

Hip Hop is Eternia – my favourite rapper wears a skirt! Eternia is one of the most charming personalities in Hip Hop, widely respected as one of Canada\u2019s foremost lyricists. Shattering all stereotypes, Eternia\u2019s aggressive style lies in stark contrast to her feminine appearance.<\/p>\n

Hip Hop is Casey, one of the most acknowledged MCs in France. Not only do Hip Hop heads adore her, that\u2019s the amazing thing, she is such a hardcore MC with such a strong attitude and presence that her lyrics are listened to by a lot of different people. It\u2019s like having a history lesson with a serious caustic undertone.<\/p>\n

Hip Hop is about breaking, it\u2019s about the b-girl legend Rokafella who knows how to rock a fella. She is one of today\u2019s most known b-girls worldwide, dancing since the age of 16 and growing up in Spanish Harlem. Her worldwide input
\nin breaking and teaching the art and history of Hip Hop dance and b-girling is amazing! Her latest project \u201cAll The Ladies Say\u201d is a documentary that highlights the lives of six iconic female b-girls from the USA.<\/p>\n

Hip Hop is about the deejay, it\u2019s about M.A.F.I.A., one of the most charming persons, wearing her laces loose behind the turntables and as Sneaker Freaker\u2019s first lady she is kicking it hard for the ladies. If you are somehow involved in \u201cfemale Hip Hop\u201d you cannot avoid her, someday, somewhere, you will meet her, because M.A.F.I.A. is all over, coming straight out of Melbourne.<\/p>\n

Hip Hop is about graffiti, it\u2019s about Indie184, a wonderful sista with a dope attitude on motherhood. Being the lady at the side of legendary graffiti artist Cope2 and having three kids, she is always on the run to keep it real for the ladies. Whether in the streets, on the tees or curating street art expos strictly female, come to her correct, cause as she puts it, \u201creal recognizes real.\u201d<\/p>\n

Yes and graffiti is about another living legend, it\u2018s about Klor. There is no need for words, it\u2019s 123 Klan, legendary!<\/p>\n

Hip Hop is about education, Hip Hop is Toni Blackman, the Hip Hop ambassador, spreading Hip Hop education throughout the world.<\/p>\n

Hip Hop is about photography, it\u2019s about Texas Malika Toussaint-Baptiste a.k.a. Texas, currently one of the most talented young photographers.<\/p>\n

Hip Hop is life…. Hip Hop is bigger than a box. Yo that\u2019s what it is, to quote some of the 44 contributors of \u201cHip Hop is…\u201d This culture called Hip Hop is so huge and so rich, and has nothing to do with what we see in the mainstream. It\u2019s more
\nand vast!<\/p>\n

\u201cHip Hop is\u2026\u201d comes as a special double issue. It covers the 60 pages Anattitude
\nas well as the 44 page special edition with 44 quotes on what\u2019s Hip Hop all about.<\/p>\n
