I love nicki minaj and i do think she has put female rap back on the map for this decade undoubtably, but this article written by grape juice is quite honestly just flat out sexist. The reason it's been harder for females to make it as rappers and to continue a long career has everything to do with sexism in the industry and with the double standards held with female rap artists. You are just plain ignorant if you think it's just because female rap artists "aren't intelligent."
