Philadelphia has been a vital music city for decades. The contribution has been as diverse as Doo Whop, the Soul sound of the seventies and the golden era of hip-hop. All of those movements included women. They have not only contributed their talent on stage but applied their organizational skills from public relations, managing, sales and so forth.

CupofSoul had the pleasure of recently speaking to some of the women that are currently making their mark in the industry. We talked to them about what influenced them from entering the business, musical tastes and how the recent revelations of the #metoo movement help exposed the patriarchy and sexism that exist in the industry.
