Coco Machete, Ambr33zy, and Loli Pop -- say what? With Funky Finger Mark on synths and Jay-Sonic's production, this sleazoid all-female Oaktown electro-rap trio spits it out on the dirty from tiny Tenderloin gems like Aunt Charlie's to glitz-happy Rickshaw Stop to the huge San Francisco Concourse, where they opened for M.I.A. last month. ("See, Papa, dreams really do come true!" says Coco of the Concourse show. "We just plowed through the 20-foot stage barrier and got one with our audience. We need to smell 'em and taste 'em and feel 'em.")

HOTTUB hosts their club, LeHeat, every fourth Saturday at Oakland's Uptown (www.uptownnightclub.com), and they have a new single dropping this summer on their LeHeat label, followed by a fall full-length. They've also got 1,000 shows this summer: check 'em at www.myspace.com/hottub94608.

SFBG There seem to be a lot of fierce women taking over underground club music -- M.I.A., Santogold, Uffie, Alice Glass ...

COCO MACHETE, HOTTUB It's about motherfucking time! How many times do we have to hear what the boys have to say? No offense, but the straight male ego perspective is just redundant as shit. We're going through such an interesting time right now, and it seems like people are ready for change. They're ready to hear something other than what's been said over and over. And if they're not ready, its our time to puke our guts out all over their faces.

SFBG You don't think three hot women rapping about sex is a male fantasy?

COCO Our energy catches people off guard. Oftentimes we play major sausage fests and it feels like at first glance we're gonna be some sexy Vanity Six act or something. Then about a minute into it, we're totally spazzing the fuck out like a bunch of 13-year-old boys hopped up on energy drinks. We're singing songs called "Man Bitch," starting mosh pits, and victimizing perpetrating men by pantsing them on stage and turning their bellies into bongos. It just feels really amazing to be doing what we do naturally, spreading unselfconscious girly fun throughout the land.

SFBG Your slogan is "Your dad's worst nightmare."

COCO Yeah, we'll steal a cucumber from your fridge and stick it up his.... Just kidding, we adore dads! We're actually really nice girls. We just love to terrorize boys and uptight whiteys. Wait, terrorize might be the wrong word. We just want to free them.
