The tradition is clearly changing too, that's the last point to be made. As more and more women get into the rapping, it's losing it's male dominated form, the topics are now beginning to be addressed from a woman's side as well as from a man's side, that's especially important in the party raps because-- ladies first, go ahead.
{SPEAKER name="Speaker 2"}
It's also harder for a girl to get into rapping because she has pressures from home more than the male would because mom and dad don't approve of you going out there late night rapping at a party, standing on a stage in front of all these um, children, or say teenagers. They also don't approve of the way you dress. And someone came up to us once and said why do you dress the way you do? And I said, well (laughs), if I stood there, you know, and dressed like the average female did when she came to a party, why would she stand there and watch me? (laughs) I supposed to show them what I can do, I'm supposed to be unique and different, so,that's why we dress the way we do and we still look like girls half the time.

Let's have a big hand please for the International Playgirls and the Punk Funk Nation.
Y'all can see the show at 4:15 in the big tent. The big show, a whole hour
{SPEAKER name="Speaker 1"}
At 4:15 what we're going to do is put on an hour long show opening with Grandmaster Nell and the Punk Funk Nation and the International Playgirls, followed by the breakdancing crew, the Scanner Boys, and if you wait around for about two minutes, we're about to change workshops, we're going to invite the Scanner Boys up here on the stage and do a workshop in the art of popping and breakdancing. Breaking it down into the different moves, so you can get an understanding of what it is that makes up the artistry of vernacular dance. So, thank you very much, you've been a great audience and an attentive one, if you'll just wait two or three minutes, we'll go on with our next workshop with the Scanner Boys.
