Girls And Hip Hop: What Are You Teaching Your Kids? Featuring Shamika Sanders

Today on Let Your Voice Be Heard! Radio, we'll be talking to The Urban Daily's own celebrity reporter Shamika B. Sanders about how Nicki Minaj's image can be damaging to young girls.

As you may recall, 8-year-old British star Sophia Grace Brownlee took the world by storm when her cover of Minaj’s “Super Bass” went viral on the Internet earlier this month.

Her new found internet fame landed Brownlee on the "Ellen" show in which Minaj surprised Brownlee and her family, who flew in from England, to deliver her praise and a short performance.

However, in What Are You Teaching Your Kids? Little Girls Rap Nicki Minaj’s “Super Bass”, Shamika questions whether this is something that we should be praising and applauding as adults.

Tune into Let Your Voice Be Heard! Radio today at 5pm as well talk to Shamika and hear your reaction to the influence hip hop has on girls.

Watch the Sophia Brownlee's performance on Ellen after the jump.
