Angie Stone Says Her Female Rap Group Was Never A One-Hit Wonder

We recently reported that = R&B singer Angie Stone was part of one the first female rap groups back in the 1970s. Well, apparently neither did VH1 according to AJC reports:

The group isn’t as well known as other early hip-hop artists such as Sugarhill Gang, Kurtis Blow and Doug E Fresh. VH1, in its press release, cited Salt-n-Pepa, who didn’t form until 1985, as the first true female hip-hop group. Salt-n-Pepa is being honored Monday, along with Lil Kim, Missy Elliott and Queen Latifah, all bonafide stars in the hip-hop world.

In her press release, she expressed “outrage, hurt and disappointment” that they were “snubbed once again.”

Although they made no fuss of previous shows, trusting and believing that their time would come; this time the trio Angie B., Blondy Chisolm, and Cheryl “The Pearl” Cook feels undermined and disrespected and want their voice to be heard.

“They’re honoring “female” Hip Hop legends” said Stone. “We definitely should have been included in the celebration this year for sure!”

Guess who is STILL mad according to TMZ:

Angie Stone thinks VH1 was flat out wrong for leaving “The Sequence” out of its ceremony celebrating women in hip-hop … saying her group helped pave the way for countless others.

Stone was out in Atlanta this week with Ed Lover and she let it all out … saying her 80’s girl rap group was anything but a one hit wonder. It’s interesting … Angie says she was at the ceremony in the audience and still got the snub.
