Interesting article in the Guardian suggesting that female acts aren't getting booked at festivals. For me really couldn't give a toss whether the act is male or female as long as they are good.
We where at the Rapper Championships in Leeds this weekend and the winning was a women's side and I thought personally the top 3 sides where women's.
I personally do not agree with the quota system of we must have X amount of women just because they are women, if you are good enough you are in that to me speaks for itself.
