Female Rapper Lyrical Ninx Concerned Why other Female Rappers Sound like Nicki or Cardi?! New Music "Reality"

Ive always been one to write down my emotions and later discovered that i could put it to good use through poetry, which i did.
I was part of a christian spoken word poetry group called Poetic Gospel and we would occasionally arrange our own shows.
I turned some of my poetry into rap and it was amazing because i got my message accross clearly and since most people are into that genre of music, i figured more people would listen to my work and relate to it.
My stage name is Lyrical Ninx and the reason for the name is because my mind is always full of lyrics. I met my producer in 2012, his name is Joel Tabana and he is the one person that believed in me even when i didnt believe in myself.
I am eternally grateful for the opportunity to be able to speak to people through music and to God for installing this gift within me.

What is the good and the bad thing about hip hop as a female in SouthAfrica according to your experiences?
The good thing about hip hop as a female in South-Africa is that there's not really a lof of them so the one's that are there are paving the way for us and also showing us with hard work and dedication, females can rule the hip hop world.
The bad thing about it is that people always compare the female rappers to Nicki or Cardi which i feel is very wrong coz each rapper is different

What's your say about the title "Female Rapper" when you are a Lady but when it is a Guy... it is just a "Rapper"
Female rapper......for me,  it's cool. I honestly dont have a problem with it, infact i feel honoured when im being refered to as a female rapper.

I would say guys always have the upper hand and women tend to sometimes feel inferior because of this. Gender based violence is a reality that we all have to face and i sincerely hope in time, it will change.
