As a new generation of listeners, artists, and industry players challenge the outdated perspectives existing within the hip-hop community, it is imperative to create spaces where women are celebrated for their contributions to the most influential sound in the world. In Buffalo, where the hip-hop scene is reaching a new frontier, many women who are involved in the <\/span>musical arts have a two-fold mission &#8211; perfecting their gift and nurturing their community through their gift.<\/p>\n<p>DJ Little Italy, DJ Lisa Lux, Yanava Hawkins, Maggie Giamo &amp; Pretty Bulli all execute their talent on a high level with a strong conviction to give back to their community. Honoring the 5 elements of hip-hop, these ladies will showcase their talent and tell their stories along with a handful of women propagating hip-hop. You will not only learn what they do, but why they do it. In the powerful words of Queen Latifah, this is \u201cLadies First.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Featuring:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Opening: DJ Lisa Lux from Buffalo Girls\u00a0 @djlisalux<\/li>\n<li>Navi &amp; Dance Crew\u00a0 @ii_am_navi<\/li>\n<li>DJ Little Italy\u00a0 @little_ita1y<\/li>\n<li>Headliner: Pretty Bulli\u00a0 @pretty_bulli<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This event will also feature a short interview and works on display from Maggie Giamo.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em>\u201cI realized hip-hop is a male-dominated industry, but I saw all these amazing, powerful women that were working behind the scenes, and you really wouldn\u2019t see them on TV getting exposure or in music videos, but they were always pushing these artists and pushing people they were passionate about,&#8221; said Ladies First curator Schondra Aytch. &#8220;So when I saw that and saw the influence I have now, I was like, I have to do something in my power to elevate these women and support these women.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Schondra Aytch, creator of Sneakvibing Media on Spectrum News 1<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>THIS EVENT IS MADE POSSIBLE BY OUR GENEROUS SPONSORS<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>BUYBACK BUFFALO<\/li>\n<li>TREND UP STORE<\/li>\n<li>BUFFALO INSTITUTE OF CONTEMPORARY ART<\/li>\n<li>TECH BUFFALO<\/li>\n<li>TORN SPACE THEATER<\/li>\n<li>SPOTLIGHT SERIES 716<\/li>\n<li>DEJA\u2019S EMBROIDERY<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr class=\"ttfmake-hr\" style=\"border-style: solid; border-top-width: 1px;\" \/>\n<p><strong>What is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sneakvibing.com\/\">Sneakvibing Media<\/a>?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sneakvibing Media is a multi-media platform &amp; hip-hop blog &#8211; The ultimate source for all things hip-hop in Western New York.
