By comparison, Rap is easily music’s most collaborative genre.

In fact, some of Hip Hop history’s biggest hits have come as the result of some heavyweight tag teams on a track – a nod to the age old adage of ‘strength in numbers.’ Yet, while there is a noteworthy class of emcees who have made indelible marks on the charts by their lonesome, the ladies of the male-dominated genre can’t exactly boast that frequency.

Making the achievement all the more toast-worthy when it does occur, this week saw rising rapstress Latto join an exclusive list of female Hip Hop hitmakers when her latest single, ‘Big Energy,‘ made big moves into the Hot 100’s top 40.

To celebrate, we’re raising a glass to the entire club of femcees who have brought the same energy – for and by themselves.
