Aisha Sekhmet is a hip hop artist from Louisiana. With a resilient spirit and a passion for mental liberation in the African-American community, she has embarked on a mission to "Wake Up The Hood." With a raw, assertive flow and an uncompromising approach to deliver truth, Aisha Sekhmet became known to many in the hip hop world with her single "You The Whiteman's Bitch." It showcased her skill at making 21st century oppression appear clear to any young person unaware of the matrix of white supremacy that still exists. Listening to many of her songs like "Everybody's Gay" and "Age of the Bitch Nigga", one can perceive that Aisha is just a bitter black female who was taken her anger out on her male counterparts and the white man who is responsible for our misfortunes. But any intelligent minded individual who has experienced Black Hollywood, the music underground, and the overlooked racism and exploitation in the quest of money, status, and fame, knows Miss Sekhmet is telling the undiluted truth. She is fierce, she is raw talent, she is fearless in speaking truth to power and the uninformed masses who don't know what truth is.

"Did I colonize myself, destroy my institutions, enslave myself, use and neglect myself, steal my identity, & then being reduced to nothing, invent a competitive economy knowing I cant compete? I blame the capitalistic dog, the imperialistic, cave dwelling brute that kidnapped us, pulled the rug from under us, made us a caste in his society with no vertical economic mobility." --George Jackson, Soledad Brother~--George Jackson, Soledad Brother
