In Skoove’s prior gender analysis of top musical artists, we found that female representation varied by genre. Latin, hip hop, and rap have extremely low rates of women artists, for example, while pop music has the most female representation, at 38%.
Similarly, the Fix The Mix report found that gender imbalances among music technicians differed by genre. As the following chart shows, women received the most credits in the electronic and folk/Americana genres, but still only accounted for 11% of those credits. Of the 14 genres in the analysis, metal had the worst inclusion record — it was completely dominated by male producers and engineers.
