DJ Switch dropped a new single‚ Now or Never‚ at the beginning of March — and by the looks of it‚ Patty Monroe isn’t impressed that the DJ did not include a single female rapper on the track.
Taking to Instagram‚ the female rapper posted a lengthy note‚ which reads like a rap verse/poem‚ taking aim at a society organised on patriarchal lines.
Now or never another all male endeavor
Failing to deliver call the midwife, Mr clever
A man was never conceived by a man alone
What's this science fiction tryna make a clone?
We birthed them burped them paroled them from behind bars
Now they walk around with their heads all up in the stars
We of Isis and she sense a crisis
Cause while the male is valuable the female she be priceless
These men govern through pride and emotion
Try Silence our voices *insert broken heart emoticon
They want the sex use us for our bodies
Then use the experience to make similes
They focus on our asses gaze at our titties
Gossip on the nine lives of our little kitties
Tell us the people only love us for our looks
Please... Our bra's got tigher hooks
Time to undress the elephant in the room
Now or never signing out - Patty Boom Boom
Though she does not mention any names‚ it appears that Patty was not only referring to patriarchy‚ but also weighing in on the absence of female rappers on Switch’s latest track.
Confirming the speculation‚ Switch commented on the post‚ writing: “Yooooh bra‚ ok at least I know now‚ considering I approached @rouge––1 ask her for yourself. This is petty.”
To which Patty responded: “It’s petty that I have an opinion @djswitchsa.”
