Heh, they really did, didn't they? The whole video seems to take place on a high-tech touch screen. XD

Women who rap. Yeah, must find more of them. ^_^

Cherry Who? 09-06-2010 05:49 AM

Can't say I really know of any others. When it comes to rap, my knowledge is incredibly limited. I haven't found many yet who are any good, much less many females.

I don't know anything from this artist aside from this one song, but it's a really good one. Ode to Billy Joe - Bobbie Gentry
Unfortunately it's been all but forgotten recently. It's a bit difficult to find. But it's a great song. Nice folksy sound, good story telling, talented vocals...

Cicadetta 09-06-2010 04:48 PM

Wow, I don't know what it is about country songs like this, but... I do like them. There's that Reba McEntire one, too... Great vocals on this one, you're right! Why can't all country be this good?

Cherry Who? 09-07-2010 12:22 AM

I wish I knew! There's only a few southern-sounding songs I like, but I know what you mean. Why can't they ALL be like that. D:
They're not girls, but on the topic, Old Crow Medicine Show's a good southern band.

Cicadetta 09-07-2010 02:34 AM

Ohh, yeah! That band is country, isn't it? But they're more folk-style than pop-style. That always helps.

Soda 09-07-2010 08:44 PM

Oh yes I owe you that bad.

Metal band with female vocals, there a few songs I don't mind from them anyway.
LACUNA COIL - Closer
LACUNA COIL - Enjoy the Silence

There's another band but I can't remember the name. Its been bugging me for like a week. *_*

Cherry Who? 09-07-2010 09:15 PM

Nightwish, maybe?
I don't listen to them, but I do know they're a metal band with a female singer.

Soda 09-07-2010 09:38 PM

That might have been them, I don't really listen to metal either, I had just promised Cica I'd post up some metal for some genre variety. :)

Nightwish sounds quiet probable though..

Cicadetta 09-07-2010 10:55 PM

Ohh, awesome. Genre variety indeed! :boogie: Okay, now that I've updated the list and changed the video (which is a change of pace, too, I think), I can actually... *gasp* Listen to metal.

(Does Evanescence count as metal, by the way?)

Cherry Who? 09-07-2010 10:58 PM

I haven't heard anything of Evanessence's since their first album, but I wouldn't class them as metal, personally. Inspired by metal, but not straight up metal. But then again, I don't know much about metal. :lol:

Soda 09-08-2010 12:29 AM

That really is a change of pace for the featured song Cica! x3 It made me smile.

Just some extra info. Lacuna Coil is considered "Gothic Metal" Which tends to have the stronger vocals, and nightwish is a " Symphonic metal" band.. For completions sack I pulled up one of their tunes. We gotta but thorough you know. ;)

NIGHTWISH - Nemo

Cicadetta 09-14-2010 11:52 PM

Hee, glad you liked it, Soda. XD

And... I'm back. Still not in the rhythm of things, yet. It's amazing what a short trip out of state can do to a routine. oO But! There is finally an update. It is neither Lilith nor Canadian.

Cherry Who? 09-15-2010 03:35 AM

I feel so helpful. :lol:

Cicadetta 09-15-2010 04:35 AM

XD You are. Also, I like to rotate things a bit.

Soda 09-16-2010 07:08 PM

Sorry I been kinda MIA. Class's and other stuff..

I'm pretty sure this artist is a Lilith artist anyways but what about Julie Black?

Cherry Who? 09-17-2010 06:15 AM

Ha. MIA. :lol:

BellyButton 09-17-2010 08:47 PM

They're kinda mainstream, but these gals are definitely metal - Kittie

You may remember their hit from a few years ago, "What I always wanted"




There are a ton of great female rap/hip hop/neosoul artists.. I'll try to post a few when I'm less busy. :)

edit: Oops.. Kittie is Canadian.. so much for being different. :lol:

Cicadetta 09-18-2010 06:17 PM

Woah. Yep, that's metal alright! XD I've updated the list, featured a new video and... well, I have been a bit MIA, too, between fighting a cold and keeping up with my online class. (Sorry about that.)

Soda, do you mean Julie Black or Jully Black? Not that they both shouldn't be included... :)

Linnea 12-01-2010 06:45 AM

HEY! cica has a video up from a band i suggested! cool! :glomp:

and i just found this chick on youtube... which i hardly ever look for new music on there... but i saw she did a cover of waiting for the end by linkin park and i think it's fantastic! she also did a few other covers by various artists... but this is a song off her debut album i guess... i like her voice...

Soda 12-02-2010 03:26 AM

Opps I meant Jully Black, hehe thanks.

Aspinou 12-06-2010 09:23 PM

Suggesting some: April March, Gossip, The Knife, Le Tigre, Rasputina, Tegan & Sara, Love is All (can't decide if I find this band annoying or amazing).

Just some suggestions for music, most of these are obvious but maybe a little diffrent genres than before? Love the list so far though. ^^
