In a statement released by Dae One, the producer says of the upcoming compilation, “I wanted to do this project to shine the light on a lot of amazing, talented artists that I think have the ability to impact the culture. I wanted to allow these women to use my platform to get the respect and notoriety that they deserve. Women in hip-hop need more support from their male counterparts so let’s make great music and support each other more.”
