Best Of: 'Louder Than A Riot' Hosts / Biggie's Legacy  
Podcast: Fresh Air
Published On: Sat Aug 26 2023
Description: For years, hip-hop has been dominated by men and hyper-masculine lyrics. That's changing. "The girls and the gays are running things. They're the cultural crusaders at this point," says Sidney Madden. She co-hosts the NPR podcast Louder Than A Riot with Rodney Carmichael. They'll both join us to discuss the podcast's second season, which focuses on hip-hop's strain of misogyny and homophobia, and how a new generation of women and queer artists are refusing to stand for it. We'll also revisit the legacy of the late rapper Biggie Smalls with journalist Justin Tinsley.Learn more about sponsor message choices: podcastchoices.com/adchoicesNPR Privacy Policy
