Correct me if I am wrong.

Most of the rappers are male. Why low number of females?

Also, share your favourite singles from female rappers.

    Doechii didn’t win that Grammy out of nowhere, her new album is really good. My kids love Roman Holiday by Nikki Minaj, I am less convinced but they do love it.

    Angel Haze. She hasn’t released an album in a decade but she still comes out with singles every now and then. My favourite songs are “No Limits” and “Weight”

    I also love Meg the Stallion’s Tramazine album.

    Notable mention: “4AM in Toronto” by Miloh Smith & Junia-T

    Like a lot of male dominant professions, women often have a hard time gaining success in this industry. Whether that’s because fewer female rappers exist or labels are just less willing to sign them, I don’t know.

    Lady of Rage is one of my favorites.

    Best known for “Afro Puffs”, which I believe was on Dr Dre’s debut album.

    The majority of hip-hop I listen to is female. Tierra Whack (who imho is one of the world’s all time greatest rapper), Latto, Glorilla, Megan Thee Stallion, Bea (despite the beef), Audrey Nuna, Young Miko, City Girls, Cardi B, Mariah the Scientist, Omeretta the Great, Doja, Ms. Nina, Renni Rucci, Lady Lashure, THOT Squad, Londynn B, LightSkinKeisha, REI AMI, Baby Tate, Tommy, Noname, Nitty Scott … and so on

    YouTube recommended CupcakKe to me a while back and her style is fun. I don’t remember which song I like best, but Old Town Hoe was a good one.

    I’ll echo what others have said and mention Rainforest by Noname (or any of her other music)

    I really love Doechii, especially “Denial is a river”. But her whole most recent mixtape is amazing. Also do checkout her Tiny Desk performance, she is the one to watch I think.
