Well in her defense House wasn't/ isn't really mainstream in the USA and other parts of the world

I guess she was right about doing "post-nicki" more like post-M.I.A.
no shade

Where would she be if she rapped on regular Hip-Hop beats?  Would she be getting hype from the gay community? Would 212 have been a hit in Europe?

But i still wouldn't consider her sound mainstream
Oh well, she had a chance to break through and she missed it ....

Azealia and Iggy are the embodiment of the "post-Nicki thing". They got signed because Nicki did pop/pop-rap and started showing how more mainstream female rap can get sales and even acclaim.

So the waring/report tea is out. I didn't realize they don't spill the tea on every single person with a warning or report or whatever. I guess I don't have enough to show up.
Some of you are in there a lot though.

When you think about it, Nicki really did reinvent the whole archetype of a "Female rapper".
Before her, most rap girls didn't feel the need to sing or add pop into their sound. Since Nicki made it huge though by being versatile, who have girls like Iggy, Bankrupt, even Kreayshawn and others following the same path of blending their sounds with pop and singing. Most upcoming female rappers would probably do the same if they were trying to make it.
The one thing they have failed to replicate, however, is Nicki's business savvy and knack for strategy. Hence, Iggy and Azalea, the two biggest female rappers after Nicki, can't even their debut albums released and still haven't really found an audience in America.

Nicki & Drake both learned how to have crossover appeal from Wayne. He's an amazing mentor, people just fail to realize his impact.

I agree with this except the bolded. Kim, Missy and Lauryn were all over than rap and singing style back in the day.
And coincidentally, their rap/sung songs are some of their biggest and most iconic similar to Nicki. The GP is here for more female rappers who rap and sing I guess.
