Is Lil Kim the most influential female rapper of all time?

[Dwayne]

Within the context of the O/P...........she is.


Simply because she fathered..............or, should I say "mothered".............all of these young birds' styles.


Not musically, but in terms of how they use their sexuality to further their careers.

Singers been doing that first though.

Madonna

This nigga going out of his way not to give lil kim her flowers lmaooooo.

Wrong.

I just said they are more influenced by Nickki

We're talking about Hip-Hop though.


As far as solo MC's, most female MC's were along the lines of Mc Lyte and Queen Latifah.


Who wanted to be accepted as MC's first and didn't want to use their sexuality to promote their career.


As far as groups, Salt-n-Pepa never shied away from their sexuality.............but, for the most part, they did it tastefully and weren't as raunchy as the young ladies are today.






Sidenote, I didn't realize what they were talking about in........."Push-it".........until years after the song came out.

lmao saying she influenced other females to be oversexualized isn't the compliment you think it is

 

[RozayTabernacle]

the industry and labels would've pushed the same women to sexualize themselves even Kim wasn't around. they don't push someone like rapsody the same way they do cardi or nicki.

It's a lane that's put millions in pockets and blessed many... ??‍

But yeah let's go into the morality of it all. Maybe that'll work.

morality? it's got nothing to do with morality. it's just not a significant thing to have influenced.

All these women ain’t gon admit it but Nickki was their influence

I just don’t these young chick in their early 20s playing Kim

Nicky image is Lil Kim image..so who was they really influenced by.

 

[Natural Born Sinners]

The Naked Truth album got 5 mics


I'm just sayin...

Dont do this bro...that specific album getting that rating was a big reason why the source lost credibility

 

[Natural Born Sinners]

It wasn’t a trash album imo

Def not a trash album...but should not be up there discussed w Illmatic and Blueprint as a classic hahaha

 

[Natural Born Sinners]

Hell Kim was influenced by somebody before her.

She ain’t the one above all.

So just stop
[/QUOTE

We strictly speaking female rappers. Kim was the first female rapper to go all out on that image.

 

[ThaManMythLegnd]

Lefteye was the blueprint. TLC birthed what female artists did in the 90s/00s, both black & white.

 

[Swiffness!]

Yes and it's a bad thing. Set the standard that sex appeal mattered more than talent.

Although, like gangsta rap overtaking conscious rap, I suppose it was inevitable under the sheer brutality of Capitalism.

Nicki got the ass implants because she recognized this bullshit for what it was.

 

[WilberDMillz]

I was wondering how this got to so many pages when the answer is clearly yes.

Shiz, never change bro. You got an award coming at the end of the year
