Because not wanting someone to expose their entire body means I don't like them?
If stanning means being an kiss ass to everything a person does then nope I'm not.
I do love Nicki and her music.
Clock em'

And I find it ironic that barbz pretend to care about female rap without knowing anything about women in hip hop. I'll believe that you guys are interested in female rappers when you start actually listening to them.
Some not all...be clear solarsis

I actually listen to quite a lot of female rappers, so don't speak for all of us
True.

Yep.

Exactly. I try to like her rhymes but they feel so elementary.
Everything else is on point.

They don't have the same demographic, and that's exactly why Iggy is succeeding now, and will continue to succeed.
And on the "can't take serious" trip, I'm sure there's a lot of people that have the same exact description for Nicki.
True

She ain't saying nothin that wasn't already said.
But yes, the new generation should have no problem
IT was the transitions in between 2000s and 2010s that was iffy.

True but less and less each day.

I feel the opposite. I think she started off really great and like there was creative effort in what she did, and as time went on got more and more boring. I mean she just sounds like the cliche hip hop you'd hear on power now. Like shes on the hamster wheel of urban success. The Last Song and Ignorant Art are basically old news. Which is the only reason shes the one thats gotten any kind of mainstream recognition. Shes gotten commercialized, I don't want to call her a sell out per say, but she definitely sacrificed creativity.
Interesting.

If Fancy blows up, I think Iggy has a chance of being bigger than Nicki commercially. She knows how to market herself.
Nicki does want all the rap girls to co-exist with each other, she just wants to be the Queen in the process & wants the other girls to bow down gracefully, while she brags about being the Queen. lol
Yep.

I agree with all of this except the last. Her pweogmrance skills are like Nicki's in 2009. Those can be perfected, so that's not a big deal.
Nicki was so bad in 2010 too with that VMAs cotton candy mess

Kim wasn't lying when she said Nicki wanted to be the only relevant female rapper. However, I think she only wanted to be until she had enough time to be crowned the Queen, which she has. But Nicki needs that one classic rap album (which will be album 3) to solidify her spot as the Queen of Rap before she let's the peasants get shine.
Kim was RIGHT about most of the stuff (except her lies). She just went about it the wrong way.
What she should have done is serve Hard Core songs for the 2010s shtn on Nicki's song and THEN used it as a platform to come for her andtalk about the cloning.
Kim got in her feelings and didn't want to face that she tapped out of biggie's dusted unused rhymes and her ghostwriters sold her out when she went to jail...contracts displayed and errythang.
Instead she went on a 2 year campaign to amplify Nicki's career accidentally...

I'm not an Iggy hater, cuz I really do think she has a good ear for beats and hooks so her songs are great. As purely a rapper and lyricist though, Angel is better on every level. If Nicki was gonna collaberate with any female it would be her,
Speaking of Angel, I really want Nicki's first single to be something akin to Battle Cry. Strong, memorable hook with amazing crossover appeal yet hip-hop heads would love. I'm still pressed that song will forever be paid the dust of grandma's dead ashes.
About Iggy, I don't care what she said about Nicki back in 2010, I mean everyone has their opinions, and that doesn't mean it can't change. It's 2014 now (it was 2013 when the fans dug up the tweet) so it's 3 years later, and I believe Iggy's opinion on Nicki has already changed. She even said something along the lines "When I praise Nicki, Barbz think I'm a kiss-ass, when I don't, I'm a hater" I don't remember it correclty but I think she said something like that on twitter. Or maybe she did that because she knew Nicki would eat her alive. Who knows.
I honestly don't see another female rapper blowing up for a while. AB had potential but......yeah. I don't think people take Iggy seriously. As far as the others, they have a long way to go.
I think that the best bet for a lot of these female rappers is to align themselves with a dominant crew like Nicki did w/ YM. Iggy took a step in the right direction but it doesn't help that not many people are here for T.I. at the moment, let alone the other people in his clique.
I actually think more female rappers are about to becoming mainstream . People love Nicki but they also want some new voices and other female hip hop representatives. There's a female rapper out there for everybody.
I wonder why Jay-Z hasn't decided to have a succesful female rapper in RocNation (not Foxy )
If Iggy was cosigned by Eminem she would have been blew
I'm dying that you would think Em would co-sign Iggy because she's white.
And on the "can't take serious" trip, I'm sure there's a lot of people that have the same exact description for Nicki.
The difference is, Nicki actually has the skill to back it p.

Brianna Perry would fit so well in Roc Nation. She's had a viral video (that Bey liked and posted to her website!) and a BET nomination without even having her first album out.

That's because there was no competition. But it's still good for her, I guess. I like the song and the video though.
Never said he would, but if he did I think people would give her more respect. Also another thing is these girls lack features. Every successful female rapper that ever came out had at least one or two memorable features.
Yeah, but you wouldn't name her if she wasn't white.

I wonder if they'll remove the female rapper BET Award if Nicki keeps winning it or if they'll give it to someone else...
She needs to win 2014 for her features and LAN, 2015 for TPP and 2016 for TPP end of the era.
7 is a lucky number and then give it to someone else.
Or just keep giving it to her until she retires...that would be nice.

Unless there is competition for Nicki (which clearly isn't) I guess they'll have no choice but to remove it lol.
Imagine Nicki saying "I love my Barbz. I know you're out there! This is my 95734572nd award in a row and I am so grateful to you. Young Money Cash Money."

Wasn't her 2011 win iconic?
Pretending like she didn't know she was going to win and the crowd laughed.
Used to be on youtube
