Most of those women brought something different to the industry. Two of them also are successful in the tv/movie genre as well.Eve had a sitcom on the now defunct upn network which was cool.The most successful one of all is of course Queen latifah, she does it all rap,sing,act,direct,produce movies,tv. You dont have any female artist in the industry today with that kind of talent. They are manufactured by record companies,managers,to sell an image to the younger generation of teens today.For black teenage girls unless they at least one positive black female role model in their life,unfortunetly this new generation of female rappers are their role models.
