I rock with female rappers. Always have. Growing up we listened to everybody in my house, so the women rappers got their play as well. MC Lyte, Salt n Pepa, Lauryn Hill, Lil Kim, Da Brat, Missy, Eve, Mia X, Queen Pen, Foxy, Gangsta Boo, Trina, LaChat, Vita, Charlie Baltimore, Rah Digga...list goes on. Some are better than others but I got no problem saying I am a fan of many of them.
Now fast forward to modern day. I feel like there are hella more acts. But some are obviously the cream of the crop (Nicki, Cardi), then you go the upper mid tier Megan, Glo, Sexxy Red, Latto, (City Girls once upon a time). The up and coming acts (Monaleo, Doechii etc) and then you got the joints you just dont take seriously (Ice Spice , Saweetie'nem).
My wife listens to a lot of female rap so Im constantly hearing it, some I enjoy and some I dont really care for. I think its ok to be critical of female rappers. Its hard to do so in this day and age with all the PC talk and you have to really be careful in how you word your critique because then people will think you have something against women. But as long as the conversation is done in good faith it can happen.
In my opinion the content these chicks are rapping about aint too too far off from what was being said back then. Trina and Lil Kim definitely had some WILD lyrics in the 90s/2000's, but they was just talkin they shxt. So when I hear the female rappers of today talk bout how they finessin dudes or how good they P is or other sexual exploits it doesnt ring an alarm because ALL artists talk about this.
The content in women rap is by far a lot less scathing than the things we have to hear men rap about. I just feel a lot of people have certain expectations of women overall, and when they see/hear them talk about vulgar topics (things that everyone talks about anyways) it turns them away, which at the end of the day is perfectly fine, but I think its silly to have this double standard when ppl dont trip off what the guys be rappin about.
