Question of the Day: Who Should Appear On Luda’s “Battle of the Sexes” LP?

If you could pick any female artist to appear on Luda’s, “Battle of the Sexes” who would you go with? Alright, remember when I payed Luda a visit at the Time Hotel last week? You remember, he spoke on Lil Wayne’s gun charge, MTV’s ‘Hottest’ list and the first offering from “Battle of the Sexes” titled, “How Low”. Well, during our pow wow via Skype, Luda shed a little light on his latest hip-hop joint opus, “Battle of the Sexes” ...

with Shawnna.

I was curious as to how Mr. Bridges was going to tackle the project, so I did what any nosey hip-hop blogger would do, I raised my hand and put homey on the spot (but in a good way, of course).

Said of Luda of the joint project, “The ‘Battle of the Sexes’ album is just geared towards relationship issues and how we feel about certain things. I don’t feel like you’ve ever had a male and a female’s perspective on an entire album. Basically, you’ll have a male’s perspective on a song, but a lot of times you may not hear both perspectives on one song and this is an album that’s full of it.”

Ok, I can dig that- equal opportunities for all those involved. Nice (c) Fabolous. Luda then divulged into some more specifics about who would actually appear on the set aside from Shawnna and himself.

Luda said of the “Battle of the Sexes” guest features, “I have a lot of different female guest appearances on ‘Battle of the Sexes’, but I can’t name them as of right now because a lot of them are a surprise, but it’s also me trying to get a female presence back out in hip-hop. It’s starting to comeback, but I would like to be one of the individuals responsible for it also because I feel like more females need a voice out here.”

Hmm, surprise appearances from an array of female spitters? This. Will. Be. AWESOME. But wait, here’s the problem, the only consistent female MC out right now is @NickiMinaj. Does this mean he’s pulling all stops by yanking Foxy, Lil Kim, Rah Digga, Eve back to the studio. Hell, he might even pull off a jailhouse verse from Remy Ma. What, they did it with Shyne for Usher’s “Confessions” remix.

I applaud Luva Luva for taking on the task of slapping female hip-hop smack dab on the cheeks of the hip-hop consumer.

So, with all  that, I’m turning to you guys. If you had your A&R way, what female MC (s) would you place on Luda’s “Battle of the Sexes”?. Hell, What female artist would you place on the project. For some reason, I don’t think Luda’s going to limit this effort to just female spitters. I can damn sure see Keri Hilson, Keyshia Cole and/or Ciara lending some sing/rap vocal assitance.

SOUNDDDDDDDOFFFFFFF!

Sincerely

Low “It’ll always be a ‘Battle of the Sexes’ in this day and age” Key
