Which Female MCs have legendary status

[PlatinumStylez]

What has Da Brat done that's legendary? Salt N Pepa were essentially the first women in rap music to use sexuality as a gimmick. Lil Kim is an extension of Biggie's legacy and raised the bar for raunchy imagery and lyrics in Hip Hop.

Da brat was the first female rapper to go platinum.

roxanne, queen latifah,mc lyte and (salt n pepa even though they was group) .... alot of u say lauryn hill but she never had a solo hip hop album. The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill is not a hip hop album......

The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill incorporates musical elements of R&B, hip hop, soul, reggae, and gospel. its not a all hip hop album. smh @ u dumb niggas calling it a hip hop album.

did someone ask what has kim done?

kim held her own in a serious time in rap....she is multi platinum and she can get all the ladies up in a club with her classics.

i hope you are not saying that becuz of nikki

the brat was the first multi platinum solo female rapper i think...

salt an pape was a pioneering female group.

alot of these kids just dont understand history....they are so fast to try an deny someone lengendary status......but say wayne and nikki has classics.

nikkis music aint timeless like kims or lytes homie

Missy Elliott- She's actually had a "career" in that she's consistently dropped music. She has crtically acclaimed albums. Say what you want about her skills or lack thereof, but she's made some dope music. Missy Elliott changed the perception that a female had to be gangsta or sexy to be successful. If Queen Latifah's legendary, you have to co-sign Miss.

Lauryn Hill- This goes without saying. She came out with one of the greatest albums in any genre in Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.

Queen Latifah- She's made some classic music over the years and IMO, "U.N.I.T.Y." is potent enough on it's own for her as a legend.

MC Lyte- See the first statement about Queen.

Roxanne Shante- She's a pioneer

Lil' Kim- She did a lot in terms of a female being open about sex in Hip Hop

Foxy Brown- see Lil' Kim

Da Brat- First female rapper with a platinum plaque.
