(AllHipHop News) Revered R&B singer/actress Janelle Monae is fed up with hip-hop music.
Janelle took to Twitter last night (July 3rd) and fired off a series of tweets blasting the content in today’s Hip-Hop music.
According to Janelle, she can only stand to listen to women rap, because the amount of misogyny in rap lyrics infuriates her as a woman.
I really only ever wanna hear women rapping . The amount of misogyny from most of men in rap and music is infuriating . We need to abolish that s### too .

Janelle noted how normalized misogyny against women has become, particularly within the present-day landscape of hip-hop culture.
“Y’all can’t wait to call women every b##ch , hoe , discuss violent acts against women, etc for clout in rap, rock, and through out music history. Misogny [sic] has NEVER been okay yet it has become normalized. Women didn’t create misogny [sic], y’all did. SO YOU DO THE WORK to ABOLISH IT,” she tweeted.
“A lot of my musical heroes and peers’ Work are problematic in many ways. And I just might be a problematic hero to someone,” she tweeted.
Take a look at Janelle Monae’s stance on Hip-Hop music below.
Misogyny in entertainment, boardrooms, the WH, households, corporate spaces, army, church, let’s us all know ya’ll do not care about women on a human to human level and you never have. If you did it would have been ABOLISHED centuries ago. You had time.

The way many RELIGIONS are used to oppress women and prepetuate misogynistic ideals to REMAIN IN POWER must be discussed WAY MORE and ABOLISHED .
