Female rap has taken over the airwaves in these last few years, branching off city to city, country to country, and overall making a statement worldwide. With pioneers like Roxanne Shanté, Queen Latifah, Lauryn Hill, Lil Kim, MC Lyte, Missy Elliot and a bunch more — the female rap era is back at an all-time demand.
For a while, the lane of Women MC’s definitely slowed down. Which is when circa 2007-2008, Nicki Minaj came into the picture and dominated the new-school lane. Her re-spark of the high demand for female rappers definitely had a large influence in the coming generation to pop out, and boy have we got some superstars! Hip-hop has been blessed with the likes of Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi B, City Girls, Tierra Whack, Rico Nasty, Asian Doll, and so many more very talented household names!
