Roy Moore is an alleged pedophile who the Republican Party, Steve Bannon, and President Trump considered qualified to represent the state of Alabama in the United States senate. This week, the state of Alabama said hell no! Thanks to a coalition of voters from marginalized communities, Moore’s opponent Doug Jones is officially the senate-elect. Often, the South is considered a monolithic region that’s stuck in a perpetual cycle of inequality. Those who are from the South or have lived in various Southern states know that perception is warped, and are showing that through their political choices. In honor of Doug Jones’ historic victory, this BitchTape celebrates artists who take pride in their Southern heritage and espouse it in their music.
