Behind Closed Doors; The Ugly Within Hip Hop.

Hip hop video vixen, Andrea Herrera, also know as “Kat Stacks” has made her way into the rap game as “the easy chick” or the "Groupie". She has performed in various videos but mostly known for what she has done behind closed doors. She has had a history of abuse as a child and began prostitution at the age of 15. Kat Stacks created big problems with rappers Soulja Boy, Jim Jones, Bow Wow for openly telling the public about her relationships with the rappers. One of the biggest encounters began with rapper “Fabulous”. Kat Stacks claimed that her and the rapper had a sexual encounter, which caused major issues with the rapper. At the time this accusation Fabulous was in a relationship and ready for his new born. She twittered about his genital size to show the media that she did in fact slept with him.

In rage, Fabulous set up Kat Stacks with two guys, two of his friends to make her feel comforting at a bar. On the left side, it shows hip-hop artist "bow wow" in on the action as well. One of the guys began talking to her calmly, then raised his hand and punched her or slapped her (Not very clear) twice, then bow wow held her by the hair and began screaming at her making her “apologize” to the rapper.

     On one hand, the public see these beautiful women on camera, but behind closed door many other things happen. Rappers can be abusing the power that they have and get away with the things they do. Not only was it intentionally taped on video but also no charges were pressed against these men or Fabulous. There has been a lot of controversy whether this action took upon a man is just “plain wrong.” Sadly, many people claimed, “she deserved it” for going around stating rumors, but in all reality no man should put their hands on a women.

This not only happened once, but again with rapper Lil Twist. The incident taped on camera shown shows his two aunts and him, chasing her around. His aunts abuse making her “apologize” for the things she’s said, while rapper Lil Twist holds her and screams at her. Clearly these two situations were taped to be showed around but why are these situations okay? There really should not be a reason why these rappers should get away with their wrong actions.
