In just 7 words, one of the closing lines of her hit w/ labelmate Busta Rhymes on "Imperial," Digga spits a line that tells a crucial truth to her rhymes. Rah Digga (First name Rayshia) hails from Jersey and gave the music industry a new breed (sound/flow/lyrical concept) of female.By far the most distinguished voice in hip-hop (male or female), Rah Digga has a formula that is indescribable and undeniable, she proves that though her voice may not match the high (and sometimes annoying) pitches of her fellow female rapstars, her voice utters hardcore w/ every syllable she spits.Digga chose Dirty harriet as the name of this classic compilation because like slave-icon Harriet Tubman, she plans to free people from a stand-still existence. Rah Digga does just that w/ widening mouthes, opening ears, and bring true hip-hop fans to their knees with this one.I've notived that alot of reviewers of this album often comment on the production and how it doesn't suit a mainstream hip-hop artist. The world 'album' entails an engulfing of many different things, and if you know real hip-hop, you know that real hip-hop is based far more on lyrics than production.I can't begin to compare to any female in the rap game because Digga stands solo on a plateau of her own. This rugged, thugged femcee is the true epitome of keeping it gangsta and I feel that she far underrated (Her music is even more pleasing than most of the males).I've given this album 5 stars because of its originality, sadistic flow, endless creativity, and Rah Digga's authentic aura. Stand out tracks: Break Fool, Curtains, Imperial, Straight Spittin' Part II, F**k Ya'll N**gas, Do The ladies Run This, and of course, Harriet Thugman.
