Jennifer Lopez has dropped her much anticipated video for the song, Aint Your Mama and has a powerful feminist message for all the women out there.

The video was released on Friday, May 6.

Sticking with the theme, the 46-year-old pop star plays the roles of six different oppressed women in the colorful video – from an under-appreciated 1950s housewife to a 1980s power suit-wearing secretary – all taking a stand against the men in their lives.

"Look, I don't have to tell you things are bad," Lopez says in the clip. "Taken for granted, ignored, overlooked, under-appreciated – we have a big big problem ladies."

The ex-American Idol judge also asks women to stand up for their rights. "You've got to get mad," she says. "Get up out of your chair, go to the window, open your door, stick your head out and yell."

The video finalizes with a modern-day J.Lo dancing on the street with an army of women, sending a message to all the men in their lives that they "ain't your mama."
