The female Rap scene is buzzing with a sum of names not seen for decades.
With seemingly each week bringing with it new bops from Hip-Hop’s heaviest hitters, Billboard has tallied the stars they deem the Hottest Female Rappers of the Moment.
Drawing on a range of criteria, ranging from hype to music to cultural resonance, the industry juggernaut’s list no doubt will set tongues a-wagging.
Full story below…
Per Billboard, Nicki Minaj tops the list and is followed by polarizer Sexyy Red. Together, they place above the likes of Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion.
Billboard’s Hottest Rappers of the Moment
No. 10 – Flo Milli
No. 9 – JT
No. 8 – Latto
No. 7 – Cardi B
No. 6 – GloRilla
No. 5 – Ice Spice
No. 4 – Doja Cat
No. 3 – Megan Thee Stallion
No. 2 – Sexyy Red
No. 1 – Nicki Minaj
Do you agree with the tally?
lol nothing about this list screams legit. Big Red is #2? Rice spice over cardi? Goodbye
I kind of agree. Sexxy redd is becoming more mainstream while Cardi is losing steam.
Honestly “the moment” should absolutely include Doechii. Matter of fact, a list of new gen female rappers should exclude Nicki. She is very much not current. Genuinely no shade. Yeah she’s got a legacy, but she’s not the IT rapper anymore. Outside of Barbs, nobody honestly cares beyond Superbass and Starships.
Also I’m all here for “top ten female rappers of the moment” and simply listing names. There’s no need to rank them. There’s so much great talent right now that it’s kinda rude to number rank.
You are delusional.
I wonder how they came up with the ranking 🤔 anyway congrats to the top 10 for this year I guess 🤣🤣🤣
S*** red at number 2 🤣🤣🤣 now I know this list isn’t based on bars or chart toppers or anything like that… Not even popularity 🤭
Yall be offended over opinion pieces and last time I checked billboard was based on numbers. All that matters is the QUEEN is where she belongs. Planking on these b******.
The contradiction lmao it’s literally an opinion piece with bullets points and numbers to fake credibility.
Billboard’s criteria for selecting the following ten artists are based on quality of records, chart success, buzz within the culture, notable business endeavors and partnerships, and touring success.
What this means is thus based off someone’s opinion and NOT based off numbers.
When will the black community stop idolizing women like this and putting down the scholars and free thinkers?
These women here are trashy af and designed to demoralize the black community. Duh
most male/boy rapppers are gangbangers,make misogynistic music and are cheaters..wheres the critisism of them?
Queen Nicki
