There is not much room within mainstream Hip Hop for women to claim space as cultural agents. The relative dearth of female emcees present to balance the gender perspectives within mainstream Hip Hop and no queer (or even openly queer friendly) voices in mainstream Hip Hop, leads to important questions for scholars to consider: In a musical culture that is seen as male dominated and somewhat hostile to the LGTBIQ community, how do queer women carve out a space that is solely their own? How do they do this in a realm in which they have double marginality? This research shifts the popular focus away from the pitfalls of mainstream Hip Hop and instead draws our attention to the way that Hip Hop is lived and practiced at the local and interactional level. This paper draws from ethnographic fieldwork, lyrical analysis and in depth interviews with lesbian Hip Hop artists from the San Francisco Bay Area in order to analyze the ways that queer women contribute to the broader landscape of the Bay Area underground Hip Hop scene. Specifically, this project explores how Queer women of color within the Hip Hop generation navigate a Bay Area music scene and a broader global underground of queer Hip Hop artists. In contrast to literature that highlights women's invisibility in Hip Hop, this paper describes how queer women work to make themselves visible within Hip Hop culture.
