When Yo Majesty released their maiden EP in 2006, they set up shop in the hip-hop wilderness. Three hulking lesbians (they’ve since dropped down to a duo) speed-rapping about sexual domination over throwback electro beats, they weren’t exactly 106 & Park material. More like Jerry Springer: MCs Jwl. B and Shunda K met in 2001 at a gay nightclub in Florida, and Shunda quit the group for several years and married a missionary before returning to music (and the love of women). They hijack typically male-owned pop themes—onstage, Jwl regularly tears off her shirt, showing her tits in a move that’s as much an act of aggression as a come-on. The craziest moment on this debut LP is “Fucked Up,” where they beg to have their pussies eaten one second, their teeth smashed the next. It’s an abrasive, masochistic jam about manic desire, a deranged scream from even farther out in the woods.
