It's impossible to overstate how golden hip-hop shone in — the shattered Billboard records , the most-streamed genre recognition from Nielsen. Industry hype aside, rap reflected our collective conscience, and national crisis, like never before. While the power of playlists and the ability to juke streaming stats with song loops set new standards, the long-play album remained the definitive format for artists intent on making timeless creative statements. And artists got pretty DAMN. Jay-Z and Tyler, the Creator averted respective midlife and quarter-life crises with their most mature confessionals to date. GoldLink and Open Mike Eagle erected memorials to the erased cultures, and cribs, of their upbringing.

A video vixen also referred to as a hip hop honey or video girl [2] is a female model who appears in hip-hop -oriented music videos. The video vixen image has become a staple and a nuanced form of sex work within popular music, especially within the genre of hip-hop. The work of video vixens and their portrayal in music videos have drawn criticism. Critics suggest that music-video models are typically placed in subordinate and submissive roles while male artists are shown in positions of power. In , Nelly 's video for his song " Tip Drill " came under particular criticism for its depiction and sexual objectification of women. In , former hip hop music-video model Karrine Steffans authored the book Confessions of a Video Vixen , in which she depicts the degradation of women in the world of hip hop. The book's publisher describes it as "part tell-all, part cautionary tale". Female rappers have most substantially felt this pressure, where sex appeal is now the currency by which women in the music business are both valued and devalued. Denean Sharpley-Whiting calls a "peculiar place of cultural antipathy", often accused of selling out and blamed for participating in the exploitation of women.
