<p>I thought that I would have been a great person to have on the panel because I had a lot to say at the time.  And as far as degrading women by using “hoes” and “bitches” and having them half naked in the videos and stuff like that, they felt like they weren’t responsible, a lot of these rap guys. I feel like you are responsible because you’re a leader. Like me, I’m a young female artist, so young girls are gonna look up to me [and] say, &#8216;I wanna be Lil Mama.&#8217; So, for another young guy, they’re gonna say, &#8216;I wanna be Nelly. I wanna be this person, I wanna be that person.&#8217; And the women that are in their video, are the type of women that they wanna have around themselves. So that’s the point that I wanted to point out to the guys. What you do matter…because young kids are looking up to you like, I wanna do that too. And it’s not even about the girls, that make you hot. It’s whatever you do is hot. So for them to see it around you, they gon be like, &#8216;wow! He got girls. That make him hot? I want girls around me that don’t wear clothes.&#8217;</p>
