She's in Jail now.

She's out of jail and she's still hard as fvck.

She's on a tune with DJ Khalid and another one with Jadakiss and French Montana - she went in on both tracks.

And she looks prettier now.

She destroyed Fat Joe on "Lean Back." grin

London stand the fvck up! cool

Gave hip hop Slick Rick the ruler and storyteller and Monie Love.

So, for both male and female rappers - London has been repping from the beginning! cool

Lauryn Hill is the best female rapper ever - it's not even close.

She's so good, she's definitely top 15 greatest rappers ever - male and female combined!

@op: you just made my day. The days of real rap and hip hop music is gone, i never believed it would ever happen. NAS was right when he said hip hop was dead. Nowadays clowns like lil' wayne, rick ross, drake, 2 chains (na 10 chains him for call himself), niki minaj etc now litter our Tv's and radio in the name of rap, gosh they are so disgusting. I feel so ashamed when i hear their rhymes, so foolishly childish. My rap and hip hop CD's are very sacred to me because the days of good music are gone.

Who remembers Queen Pen from "No Diggity" with Ted Riley and Blackstreet - New Jack Swing?

Yo Yo also used to be dope as well. Same for Shawnna and Trina.

Anyway, Foxy Brown and Lil Kim never wrote their lyrics...so it's difficult to call them great. But they're both legends.

Eve definitely had the juice. Ditto Missy.

MC Lyte, Monie Love, and Queen Latifah are pioneers

How could I forget the Europeans. There where two girls that used to rap in the late 1980s. They were quite popular and people used to compare them to Salt N Pepa, but I can't remember their name (I think they were from Belgium).


Then there's

Technotronic - Pump The Jam.
