Raven

- Some people try their luck in hip hop because they dream about bling and bitches. Steffi alias Raven, sound-engineer-in-training, began rapping to deal with a heartbreak. It's well-known that creativity blossoms most when you're devastated - and Raven realized that she could actually rap. A woman in hip hop is always a rare specimen. But Raven has no need to imitate the boys. She does, raps and produces her own thing: electronic mixed with different styles such as rap, hardstyle or EDM. And in an age where homosexuality is still a taboo in the hip hop scene, an openly lesbian rapper is a breath of fresh air. Raven has something to say, and she wants to be heard. -
