 New York, NY (Top40 Charts/ SeurJamz Entertainment) - Risk-A has suffered much scrutiny from her peers about the fact that she chooses not to curse or glorify the negative aspects of the 'hood.' Her album 'Stuck', although it has played all over the world via internet radio has faced obstacles from many urban stations. Her Manager Patrick Gillum stated in an interview that he was told by a program director the rapper did not fit the demographic and should be played on a top 40 station. 'I didn't understand why he would say that. Risk-A's fans are not just pop fans but there are fans that listen to Trina, Eve, Lil Kim basically all the other female rappers, based on our stats. Risk-A felt that with the negativity towards her music she would make it into a positive. 'I wanted to give back to my fans and show my versatility. That's why I am giving away the mixtape, Risk-A The Source.' https://www.datpiff.com/Risk-A_The_Princess_of_Hip_Hop_Pop_Risk-A_Aka_The.m125330.html
