Rasheeda, Singer
CATEGORY: MUSIC TAG: HIP HOP
Dat Type Of Gurl Rasheeda has been making southern-fried hip hop, more popularly known as crunk music, for years. She is ready to release her fourth album when many of her hip hop peers have either slowed down after two albums or stopped rapping altogether, the Queen of Crunk is ready to take her place at the forefront of the music scene and prove to the world that she is just Dat Type of Gurl. Her hip hop highness has been cranking out spitfire, take-no-prisoner rap songs since the early 90s, back when she was barely a teenager herself and most of her friends were just shunning their pigtails and bobby socks. Since that time, she’s not only ruled supreme over the Crunk Kingdom but she has also established herself as one of the sexiest women in hip hop, unafraid to cut to the chase in her music and say what every woman wants to say and every man wants to hear. Rasheeda’s latest offering, Dat Type of Gurl, is going to be released on D-Lo Entertainment/Imperial Records, June 19th, 2007. She explains the inspiration and the vibe of the current album, “I call it a classy, ghetto-fabulous, street masterpiece that takes you from the street to the bedroom, to the ups and downs of relationships to an up close and personal tour of how I’m living.” The lead single, “My Bubble Gum” is the next female anthem. The song talks about being a special kind of woman….that has the confidence to tell her man exactly what she wants and exactly how to do it. The kind of woman that makes her own money and is just as comfortable at a family reunion or cook out as she is hanging out at a club. That theme of always being a true, southern belle and genuine Georgia Peach is a dominant theme throughout the album.
