Rapper and singer Dreezy has been in the rap game for a minute. She has proven deserving to be here. When she debuted her ‘No Hard Feelings’ (2016) album, it gained popularity. One of her breakout songs was “Close To You” featuring T-Pain. Even though she felt the BET Awards snubbed her, that did not stop Dreezy from dropping more singles and being a part of other great projects. Dreezy knows what it’s like not receiving enough recognition.
The artist took to Twitter and shout out other great female rappers claiming they are not getting enough “mainstream” recognition. In a Tweet, Dreezy says,
“Lyrical Female Rappers appreciation tweet, just cus the ppl sleep. Rapsody. Chika. Lady London. Omeretta. Tierra Whack. No Name. Young MA. Snow Da Product. Dreezy. Add to the list, put somebody on today..”

Dreezy received both negative and positive feedback from her viral tweet. Many of her followers and other’s felt Dreezy was causing a divide. Dreezy decided to place all these claims to rest when she released another tweet saying,
“Yu weird as hell if you tryna turn this into some negative. I’m strictly showing love. I’m out tho.”
However, Snow Tha Product, Tierra Whack, and Lakeyah showed appreciation for Dreezy’s Tweet. Responding to her tweet, Tierra Whack, chimed in saying, “we really like that too! Rocky , Chainz , Joie Kathos, Bri Steves, Jade, Chynna, Lena L, Phresh Princess, Lee Mazin , T Marie, LG #philly.”
Shortly, Snow Tha Product also acknowledged the tweet by saying, “Thank u dreezy! u the shit.” Lastly, Lakeyah replied, “They say real rap dying? We gone keep it alive.”
Thus lately, female emcees have been getting attacked. Even Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion were recklessly scruntized for “WAP.”Let’s not forget Megan Thee Stallion with the Tory Lanez situation. Recently, the Saweetie and Quavo “breakup” and now rapper Dorough calling out female emcees for a lack of diversity. I stand with Dreezy. In times like this, what’s wrong with female emcees supporting each other?
