X Mas Task 3

The pre historic text i will be looking at will be Charlie Balimore and Foxy Brown , these females are from the hip hop industry and show the typical representation of females within society.

Foxy Brown 1999




This video was released in 1999 and shows females being protrayed as slaves and sex objects.. The females are dancing for a group of males and are wearing revealing outfits which symbolise them as sex symbols.



Lil Kim


Lil Kim is dancing with a group of females in a sexual mannor , she is also wearing revealing cltohes which appeal to the male gaze.


Queen Latifah




Within this hip hop music video , there is an alternative view on female hip hop artist within the industrie , the fmale , queen latifah isnt being sexulised and is wearing full clothing. She is dressed quite masucline and isnt really seen as a sex object within this music video. She is also showing equality for females within the industry and showing that you dont have to dress less to be noticed, you can still gain respect and acknowlegment from being yourself and not being sexulised.
