Mood maker Ms Cinnamin, was one of several women who received an award for their contribution to the Divas of the Lou Movement.





Rapper Viscious was up next.

On stage was June Fifth, along with Vega, who did wonders with unitards.

"Ooooh Weee. Ooooh to the muh fuckin weee."




































Aloha gave style and flair to her set.

































We are feeling the puffed out sleeves!



































Aloha was the only act to have a band, an all female one at that!







































Aloha rockin with the guitarist.























Next up was Unladylike who was spittin it out especially Gunna who used two mics to do her flow.








































Lady throwdown





































Gunna gives the OUTCAM the finger.









































Of the three songs they peformed, one was their hit single, "Dough" off their debut CD
"Certified"










































This mature lady got her crunk on along with younsgters.








































The other highlight was the "death" of Ebony Eyez.










































Eyez didnt perform any songs. She did a five minute rap a capella stating she was killing off Ebony Eyez for good saing she didnt care if she was blackballed and she was tired of the record biz politics (one of her lines she said was, "Folks say I'm mean, no, I'm not, I just say what I mean." )












































Right before she walked off the stage she said that she is no longer doing free shows as well. OUCH.

























Next up were singers Mo Lyric and rapper 007.












NOTE: Also performed were Jenee, Ki-Key, Sosy, Skiddals (who we heard gave a shout out to Cinnamn, cuz she was the only other white girl in the STL game), Ladies on Point and Kandy Girls.

This was a good start for this inaugural event, celebrating female talent in the STL, a first for the STL Aloha was the best in show and EbonyEyez' "womanifesto" was bittersweet. We just wondered why she did it during the celebration of women in the STL music game?



AFTERWARDS:


























We checked out some fo 13 Black Katz Pre easter networking party at the Champions Club in Busch Stadium. Pictured are photographer Lois Ingrum and 13 Black Katz member Jacque Land.











Singer Coco Soul (and DEM SHOES) was there.


















PACKED CROWD

















Folk gettin their slides on.












NOTE: The 13 Black Katz continue to pack it in with each event they have. Their parties have slowly become the 35 and over networking event of the STL, aka the Old School First Friday. LOL Soon after we left, there was a mad accident that occured in front of the Busch Stadium entrance where the event was located involving a hit and run car and a horse and carriage rider. From eyewitnesses, the hit and run car, hit the carriage, causing the horse to unmantle and roam in the streets. The impact also caused the driver of the carriage to fall out of the carrage . The owner of the carriage biz and ambulance and police were there. Apparently, the horse was captured and the carriage driver was OK.
