You launch the software and you see the splash screen for your favorite DAW telling you that soon you will be immersed in a sea of plug-ins, instruments and waveforms.

As I noticed this, I began to wonder “Why?”.

So, I decided to take the time out to introduce you all to 10 of Atlanta’s most influential Women in Hip-Hop. This particular post will be broken down into 2 parts, consisting of 5 very versatile and diverse women per post. Enjoy!!!
