   “My reorientation to the misogynoir ruling the radio took place when I tried to make the argument that “All the Way Turnt Up” was a great song because it didn’t objectify women.

That was until I read the lyrics and found the choice lyric “three dike bitches, and they all wanna swallow.””

   “Hip-hop feminist studies continues to tackle black sexual politics by discussing and challenging the persistence and prevalence of hip-hop "misogynoir" (the hatred of black women and girls), respectability politics, and compulsory heterosexuality within the music and the culture at large.”

   “Drawing upon a history in which racism, heteropatriarchy, and inter-racial gender ideology rendered Black women invisible and marginalized, Pough compels Black feminists attempting to reject hip-hop feminism to revisit the historical record of Black women pushing back against Black male sexism and misogynoir in Black political, cultural, and social spaces.”
