Nicki Minaj is alright but she’s definitely not the best female rapper. She has the attitude and she has the style but she’s not a real rapper if she can’t her own rhymes. Missy Elliot is a female rapper to go in the books. Mary J Blige is mostly R&B but she can rap. Queen Latifa, need I say more about her? But Nicki Minaj? She’s just a fad until she’s able to write her own stuff. So, for all you ignorant people, you need to get your facts straight because says she’s gorgeous but she can’t measure up to the Saints of Rapping because that stuff comes from the streets before it touches the salon and the beauty parlor.
