Is Queen Latifah a Top Female Rap Emcee of All Time?

from Rap & Order · host Rap & Order

Is Nature of a Sista’ an overlooked piece of Queen Latifah’s legacy, or a sophomore album that gets lost between her classic debut and the bigger cultural impact of Black Reign? The prosecution and defense break down the album track by track, examine where Queen Latifah stood in hip-hop at the time, and debate why she is often left out of Top 5 female MC conversations despite her impact, skill, message, and trailblazing career. We also investigate a bigger question: Why doesn’t Queen Latifah get more credit as one of the most successful rappers-turned-actors of all time? From music to television, film, business, and cultural influence, Latifah built a blueprint that many followed — but does hip-hop properly honor her? The court will review the evidence, question the legacy, and decide whether Nature of a Sista’ deserves more respect or belongs in the “forgettable follow-up” file. All rise. All hail the Queen.
