Though their impact on Pop and Hip Hop culture alike has become far too easy to downplay, there are some who remember the vital role Female Rappers played in taking the latter genre to wider audiences.
Female Rappers, which include ‘Not Tonight‘ legend Lil Kim and one time competitor Foxy Brown- both flying the flag for their field in an age some might call misogynistic.
Now- in this edition of Retro Rewind- peep the news piece below weighing in on both artists and their unique brand of female empowerment…

Ugh. You playing slick Sam.
I Loved Kim but she didn’t create female rap, a whole lot of other women had to take the stage first and put themselves on equal footing with a man long before she ever popped up on any song.
People downplay and put her up too much. She wasn’t the only one talking abot sex, she wasn’t the only one rapping. She contributed, she didnt break new ground.
That’s the only thing that pisses me off. A lot of Kim fans diss the female rappers that came before her in order to give her some shine.

What are you talking about?Don’t no Kims fans diss female rappers that come before her.It’s people like you that always trying to discredit Kim.Lil Kim was the first female rapper to being sex appeal on a national level.That is a fact.If it wasn’t for her female rappers would still be dressing in baggy pants and sweat-suits.Also Kim elevated female rap on a put in on a commercial level.Mc Lyte and Queen Latifa weren’t considered mainstream back in those days.Another fact.

That’s right Millie was a bonified bad ass and i love what kim
and foxy bring to the table in their Raunchy lyrics and dancing
and the guys do their thing let these RAPPER, rap. Kim and foxy
are good rappers and so is da brat, latifah, missy, and other
female rappers, many ore x-rated and then Kim, foxy is great
xx rated and i love the hell out of it, this is Entertainment folks.
Speaking of likes and dislike the Male RAPPERS has been
attacked, fox news has gone head to toe with many of the
Rappers, nas, 50, snoop, ludacris and many can’t stand the
FACT that many of the RAPPERS men/women are paid……
PS
And don’t forget Eve…and Others!

“Foxy Brown and Lil’ Kim harnessed a “Dynasty” like “no one else” just like the only video they did together with B.I.G.”They’re will never be another “Thelma & Louise” ever again in Hip-Hop History Making!
