MC Ge Gee

The first female in Christian rap music, Mc Ge Gee was born in the Bronx and raised in Dallas, where her parents run an inner-city youth outreach that was the subject of the film The Cross and the Switchblade. In the middle of the rap fray, she wasn't a hard rapper, nor a pop one. She picked up the serious, issue-oriented street-poetry legacy of her late brother, D-boy Rodriguez. Her two albums, 1990's I'm For Real and the following year's And Now The Mission Continues, appeared on Frontline. ~ Bil Carpenter, All Music Guide
