      @@emmadilemma7800 This is business more than anything. Their male counterparts either had more leverage in the industry, a strong fanbase, or a record label that allowed them to put on female rappers.
      Now that the music industry sees how profitable female rappers are, they can skip that process in terms of getting signed, and now, many can remain independent for quite some time. But they still go through a subtle system of being put on, whether it be with who they collab with, who they date, or even their management company.

      Well honestly, the Industry followed the Hollywood Standard that in order for women to be considered successful, glamorous and a sex symbol (eye candy) they had to be thin. As not to lose credibility and capital the Rap Industry followed suit until they saw the measured success and mass appeal from female rappers of the likes of Queen Latifah, Missy Misdemeanor Elliot, Mia X and any other big boned thick female emcees that ever rocked the mic. Basically in a nutshell, those women paved the way for rappers like Lizo

      Yeah I think Doja will be around for a while.
      Honestly, Megan too if she opens up in her music more and tells more stories. She has a few records I think show more potential than her normal hypersexual tune...
      I think the City Girls will get bigger over time. They're a niche I dont see going away totally and I think QC still has some fight...
      I dont see Cardi doing music for that much longer.
      I like Asian as a rapper, but eh.
      Kash is about to start acting, which she should. She can rap too but I think people don't connect with her voice..

      Well Jay-Z wanted to keep Amil on the scene and in the game but she didn’t want to be there anymore. So it’s not like all the men in the industry were “using” these women. And one other point is, some of these men were using their own popularity in the industry to promo some of these female MCs, however in some of these cases that didn’t work out as planned and it resulted in this informative and really interesting video.
