"When the crowd was ready, Dr. HollyHood — one of Pittsburgh’s most well-known female MCs — ...showed the range in her voice spitting bars that communicate messages regarding education and growth...The female talent even balances various hats as an artist, public speaker, teacher, advocate and hip-hop MC." - Pittsburgh Post-Gazette

"A Dr. HollyHood performance is at once surprising and approachable. She immediately draws the audience in with her talent and lyricism that is both familiar and revelatory. Her songs evoke modern hip-hop with an old school R&B sensibility and adds an endearing quality as she engages the audience to join in on the fun." - Hugh Twyman, Deutschtown Music Festival

"It was first time attending the event at Jergels.  I only went because it was an old school Sugarhill Gang concert.  I was truly pleased to find a local rapper who was socially conscience to begin the concert.  HollyHood stood out not only as a female rapper, but someone who was relatable as I made my way thru the unfamiliar crowd in the venue.  After the concert, HollyHood made herself available to the audience to share her CDS and to take personal selfies.  I was excited to be able to get a sister girl hug from her.  Guess what, the following days after, I spotted HollyHood in Home Depot and she knew who I was.  This was priceless.  She is a true local celebrity who is not only talented, but kind." - Attendee at SugarHill Gang Concert
