I thought this YouTube video was a really good example of both hybridity and intersectionality. Rappers are usually known to be black and male, but this one is female and Caucasian. She exemplifies hybridity by seeming to possess both masculine and feminine traits (she's a feminist rapper), and she demonstrates intersectionality by being both female and gay.
When I first watched the video, I thought it was a little strange at first, just because I'm not used to hearing a female voice when listening to hip hop, but after a few seconds, I started to like it. Plus, the message kind of rocks!
