Radio personality Ed Lover of Power 105.1FM and Uneek, formerly of the Bounce Squad have joined forces to create a movement entitled Females Earning Money (FEM). FEM features four of the fiercest female lyricists the industry has ever experienced… Babs Bunny, Lady Luck, Lady of Rage and Amil.

"This is the perfect time to do a project like this", expressed co-Executive Producer of the FEM Movement, Ed Lover. "A lot of people have been wondering what happened to the female emcees, well these ladies are about to prove that they are here and they are better than ever! The FEM Movement is great for the future of hip-hop!"

Uneek, who transitioned her career from artist to manager (currently managing Babs and Lady Luck and consulting for Rage), spearheaded this movement with Ed Lover to unify female emcees in a way never seen before. "Females don't come together enough and we need to show unity and cohesiveness. Men do it all the time and now it's our time to stand up, stand together and make some money", said Uneek of why she decided to create FEM. "FEM gives these talented women an opportunity to come together as a movement to show the power that we have when we work as a team, while still allowing each member to maintain their solo emcee status."

"Women seem to have a hard time working together, but we are about to change that and make history", said Lady Luck. When asked about the FEM Movement Babs stated, "I'm excited about the project. Each one of us brings something great and different to the table and I'm ready to go in! We are all very talented and we have all worked with major artists in the industry… Rage with Dr. Dre and Snoop, Amil with Jay-Z, Luck with Def Jam and EPMD and myself with Diddy. None of us are amateurs, but at the same time we all still have something to prove."

Currently the FEM artists are in the studio working on a mixtape hosted by DJ Doo Wop. Rah Digga, as well as other female emcees to be announced will be featured on the mixtape. Plans for a tour and album are also in the works
