Abstract
Combining a short documentary film and research report’ the project explores the Hip Hop scene
in Johannesburg using three female Mcs as the main case study. Divided into three chapters the
research distinguishes between two types of Hip Hop then grounds itself in the sphere of
underground\conscious Hip Hop. The research report explains the sub-culture and the place of
female Mcs in it as a male dominated arena and also addresses different theoretical concepts and
their relevance within the culture.
