It has been too long. FAR TOO LONG. It is past time for women in hip hop to take the recognition they deserve, and Rhode Island is ready to bring its fiercest women organizers and emcees to the table to do it!

Isis Storm has partnered with SlyShuga to present “WE RUN THIS! Women and Mother’s in Hip Hop” – an event that will happen during May to stress how much we believe that women in hip hop have been mothers both literally and metaphorically to their friends, family, and community.

Sponsorships are available to businesses, organizations and individuals who want to support the event, and there is a special VIP party for sponsors and the first 60 who purchase their tickets and register.
