According to the podcast’s host Rebecca Taylor – who is also a music artist – Hollywood’s #MeToo movement “barely touched the music industry”. She has set up the podcast to share female musicians’ experiences, including her own after being sexually harassed by a record label boss.

Brit Awards nominee Chloe Howl also told the BBC podcast she was sexually harassed by someone who worked in the music industry. “It feels like it’s women who are having to crusade and educate people about the oppression that they suffer,” she added.

As Hollywood continues to see improvements in addressing it’s gender disparity and calling out sexism, voices like these could mean that the music industry is about to have its own movement.
