I have a lot of respect for all these ladies, the glass ceiling they broke through, how they paved the way for women, and their impact on the culture. As an old school DJ, I have all of their records (doubles even). Roxanne's story about using her influence within her contract to earn a college degree is a priceless blueprint that should be followed. That said, hearing her on Rock the Bells radio hurts. As smart and intelligent of a woman that she has become, she using explicit language on the air far too much. I know she's hip and knows the streets, but she's on another level. With her mind, she should never lower herself or "dumb-down" to be street cool. She should make others rise up to her level. I understand keeping it real, but have a public switch. Other than that... much respect to these legends.

Mad respect to Roxanne Shante. Give her all her flowers every day from this point forward. I'm so glad to see her get her shine after all these years. Respect due. As for these other ladies (S&P), I don't respect them after the way they treated Spinderella. All the so-called women empowerment... they were a fraud. When it really mattered, they showed up as trash. The legacy is tarnished.

liked how salt / pepper used the slangs dudes used - yo troop -and others. don't know tho think they never cussed on any recordings. roxanne roxanne ( yea said it twice ) said she had military arms for all the rappers including s and p maybe had them thinking it might be a set up - she said she wanted to interview us yet could this be a trap? that big mama rap was a ll cool j calling himself a psycho comparison to rock the bells. 1st time hearing that - only heard her semi clean raps those years ago, caught my mind to something black uplifting of the spirit when she said seem like at end of rap - 'please believe '.
