Maybe his girlfriend was called Average Homegirl.

antibling, it's good to see a fellow fan of "The Warriors". Some of the greatest quotes come from that movie.

I must say its Eve...I dont know about her acting but she can hold it down on the Mic. She has substance unlike Lil Kim and Trina, even Foxy Brown. But yall watch out for Jacki O, she's got skillz too.

ANY ONE THAT NAMES ANY FEMALE RAPPER TO COME OUT IN THE LAST 10 YEARS need to shut the hell up yo - LOL.

Lil Kim is VERY very close...flow is ill, voice is rough, rhymes are oh so BROOKLYN.

AND ...the woman IS an icon - like it or not. (a cancer too 😉

HOWEVER............. M.C. LYTE IS THE BEST FEMALE RAPPER OF ALL TIME

period dot.

She inspired me to pick up the mic when i was ten.

Lyte in her prime was damn near like Jay or Big in brooklyn.

Yep Queen Latifah was really cool ... she was different the others -- she will be induced into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. However, Missy Elliott is definately a hall of framer too 🙂

Lil Kim might not talk about what you WANT her to talk about...but don't hate on her skills. She is hot!

I must say...I forgot all about Lauryn Hill...But with all her mental breakdowns...Who can say!

And I forgot about Missy Elliot, but she is more of an "entertainer" than a "rapper" She does everything but you cannot say that someone who uses "5,6,7,8,9,10" as a lyric is the hottest female rapper.

The Queen is Hot! Eve is DEFINITELY hot, but my money is still on Lil Kim...

And WHO said Remy Ma? ARE YOU JOKING? You might as well have said Shawna...or the chick who had that song "My neck, My back"!

Cancerlady: "And WHO said Remy Ma? ARE YOU JOKING?"

HELL NO!!! I luv a chic who can spit a hardcore flo and look good too! Shawna's fine, but she ain't half as nice at rappin. Lauren Hill is ill, but she UGLY as HELL. Missy Elliot is nice too, but she look disgusting (LOL). Lil kim look GOOD, but Remy Ma will embarass her in a rap battle. I'm thinking hottest meaning sexiest, and I think MC Lyte is ugly, along with Queen Latifah and they will all lose to Remy Ma in a rap battle (Maybe except Lauren Hill). I see that we need more men to comment...

In my opinion, Trina will always reign supreme!

As a producer..this convo is damn near dis-respectful.

we are talkin about the BEST OF ALL TIME people!!!!!!!!!!1

Not the best of 106 & Park.

NOT the best of the 90's.

NOT the best at taking off her clothes.

WE ARE TALKING ABOUT RHYMING ABILITY, CONCEPTS, RHYME SCHEME, INDUSTRY IMPACT...
and legend.

choose more wisely and re-think this.

How can you feel disrespected if a person's opinion differs from yours. Music is kinda like beauty...it is relative. There are some who think ANY rap is total crap so me thinks you shouldn't take it so personally...

A person just likes who they like, just a matter of opinion.

true.

However.....

if this was a thread about modern medicine...peeps could have
all types of opinions about medicine.

But if a doctor, nurse, or even med student chimed in....their opinion would reflect a little bit more than just personal bias. Would it not ?

Medicine is a science...music is an art. You can't compare the two because one is fact, the other is the artist's truth...open to interpretation.

Let's say one doctor says this pill is better for treating the cold, while another doctor says holistic medicine is. We can measure which one is better by the rate at which the person got better as well as other factors that can be deemed concrete. Now if I say that Missy is better than Kim, and you say Kim is better than Missy....how do we "measure" who is right? I may like the simplistic rhymes and relate to them better whereas you may relate more to Kim's gritty style . A matter of opinion and perception...neither of us is right or wrong.

You may have a better outlook on what is "technically" correct as a producer as far as the music, ie levels AND you may have a good idea of what will SELL...but you cannot say your opinion of what is "the best" should be considered the best by everyone just because you have that background. Trust me, I bet Dr.Dre, Timbaland, Jazzy Pha, The Neptunes, etc ALL have a different opinion of who is the best rapper of all time. They are all well respected producers in the hip-hop community...so who is right? Noone and Everyone.

I feel you ---- it's inherently filled with bias and personal truths.

But i do think that at some point... a clear winner has to emerge.
People arrive at the same answer NOT because they took the same steps to get there,
but maybe that answer was just the RIGHT answer.

But then again...we got a bunch of idiots that believe we're in Iraq fighting for democracy so .... people will believe anything.

Back to the Female M.C.'s ---
Scientifically --- it would be a comparison of record sales.
a comparison of discography's to see who stayed around the longest
Hell... record companies give bigger budgets and later release dates
to higher priorty artists... and you could just break down rhymes line by line and see who.....

you know what ??

I see your point.

To ME -- rhyme scheme and complexity are very important...
but i actually do know some knuckleheads who never thought that an m.c.
is supposed to conjure up thoughts.

But that's why this should've been specific.

WHO IS THE BEST FEMALE RAPPER based on lyrics — based on style /image —

you know ??

But there is something to be said for public opinion...... no one could ever truly believe that Remy Ma could out spit L Boogs, Rah Digga, Lyte etc.

btw - eve is not all that cute to me.......she look like them things in that old Super Mario bros game...them things you jump on and they squish

geez...I thought this whole thing was just a fun thread where you can place your opinions without getting attacked, but fine...

Remy Ma for start, if you truly like rhyme scheme and complexity in a female rapper...it would be none other than Remy Ma. Her metaphors had me doubting my skill as a rapper, secondly, she beat Rah Digga in an underground rap battle before she blew up, (no disrespect to the old school, but Remy is too creative with her words for MC Lyte. That's like having yesterdays Big Daddy Kane against Cassidy, Kane'll get embarassed.) Also, Remy Ma is SEXY, so this is what my opinion concludes...

m_ldy , hell yeah It's EVE. she is a scorpio, and a bad as rapper. That bitch said something like this in one of her songs, " When we making love , it's like heaven controlling my spine, and i'll never leave his side , eve the apple in his eye" I mean bad. THe bitch is bad. I love her ass. I wish for her to leave that tired upn show and become a rapper again.
