Biography

If BWP (Bitches With Problems) weren't hip-hop's most controversial female group of the early '90s, then HWA (Hoes With Attitudes) certainly qualified. Openly flaunting a loose (to put it mildly) sexual attitude and standing vulgarity to vulgarity with any male rapper, HWA failed to generate much sales action, but certainly got plenty of publicity, including a lengthy article in The Source and condemnation from sources as diverse as Rev. Calvin Butts and filmmaker Spike Lee. ~ Ron Wynn, All Music Guide

H.W.A., or Hoes With Attitudes, was an American all female hip hop trio composed of Jazz, Diva (AKA Go-Di) and Baby Girl. They were signed to Ruthless Records.

History

The three members came together in 1990 for an independent record label, Drive-By Records to record their debut album, Livin' in a Hoe House. The album was not a huge success, only making it to #38 on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums, but the group became known for their sexually explicit lyrics and they were soon signed to Eazy-E's Ruthless Records.

In 1994, H.W.A. released two EPs, the first one entitled Az Much Ass Azz U Want',' and the second entitled I Ain't No Lady. Both were critical and commercial failures and the group disbanded shortly after.
