In the late 1970s and early 80s, women played a foundational role in hip-hop. MC Sha-Rock earned a spot with the “Funky Four Plus One,” making her one of hip-hop’s first female MC’s.

Greatness!!!!!!!💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
My favourite female rapper sha rock is amazing 💯💯💯💯
Sha Rock you were the illest and a huge inspiration. So happy to hear YOUR voice amongst all this BS.
And salt salt salt salt salt. Smh. Miss narrator couldn't suppress the pettiness to utter Spindarellas name. "My group." or "Me and My girl Pep."
Cheryl James is cold as ice. And ABC is garbage to allow the disrespect. Ijs
Too bad they couldn't include everyone. This should have been like a week long series of 5 eps. 70s, 80s, 90s, 00s, 2010s-2020s Or something to that effect.
This REAL HIPHOP‼ï¸ÂÂ‼︠MC SHA ROCK👑 RESPECT‼ï¸ÂÂ‼ï¸ÂÂTo the First Female MC👑👑👑👑
I'm surprised ABC did the research!! I'm so mad I missed this last night…hopefully they will put it on you tube! So many female MC's paved the way…Sparky D…Roxanne Shante…The Real Roxanne…MC Lyte…Antoinnette…Sweet Tee…Salt n Pepa…Mc Trouble…JJ Fad…the list goes on!
@ABCnews this is false I AM the 1st in Queens #1976
King Tim III (Personality Jock) by the Fatback Band came out before Rapper's Delight.
I hate that she doesn't get enough credit for being the first female MC of Hip-Hop.
Love this… they forgot a few females: ms melody with Boogie Down Production, the beef with Roxanne Shante and the Real Roxanne , Foxy Brown!!

<🚀Amazing content. Crypto is moving with little sign of stopping throughout the past few days and weeks. Bitcoin price fall means analysts remain divided over whether it is entering a bear market or is just suffering a brief correction on the road to more record highs. Right now can be a smart time to invest. so choosing the right investment strategy can reduce your risk and make the most of your money. Bitcoin trading is a lucrative opportunity as it leverages the market volatility. Trading is more fulfilling and is truly reasonable if you learn and earn. I have been able to make 16 BTC of trading but all thanks to exclusive signals from Davis ThomasðŸ™ÂÂ,.
Compared to today's rap / grime the Old rap is lame AF
YAAAASSSSS!!! THE REAL QUEENS OF HIP HOP!!!!!
My question is this!!! How come Sequence ( three woman rappers,Cheryl the Pearl but mainly Angie B aka Angie Stone the R&B singer), is not mentioned?!?ðŸ¤â€ÂðŸ¤â€ÂðŸ¤â€Â
They dropped a whole album around 1979/80 .
“ Gonna funk you right on upâ€ÂÂ,was their hit record in the hood!🤨

Roxanne would diss everybody for no reason. She was wildin. 😂😂😂😂😂
I had that 12 inch extended mix of That's the Joint. I remember when they were on SNL. I wanted to be the next black guy on SNL.
Sha Rock!!!!!!! Yeah baby. Funky four plus one more.

Who? Grew up in The Bronx during the 70’, 80’s and 90’s but I don’t ever remember hearing of her.
How come they never mention The Sequence? The first female rap group.
Always focusing on Hebrew women, not Hebrew men. The CIA have already turned their community into a Matriarchy, and even in the midst of the fall of this country, you're still focused on disregarding the closest thing to the most High Himself, the Hebrew man aka 👦ðŸÂ¾
