- While discussing Erykah Badu's direct diss towards rapper, Iggy Azalea, during the Soul Train Awards last November, Lord Jamar recalls meeting Badu before her singing days when she was known as an emcee. Further into the conversation with DJ Vlad, the Brand Nubian rapper admitted that he's been criticized for sounding sexist with his opinions when asked his thoughts about Badu as a lyricist. "I don't really remember." He said, "I'm not into female rap, so I'm the wrong one to ask." He said he may listen to female rappers occasionally, but he wouldn't go out his way to purchase their album.
Watch the full interview above.
Any man running around blasting anaconda is immediately taken out of my contacts!
😂
What if I'm blasting MC Lyte, is that acceptable?
if you ain't got buns hun
+Terrance Jenkins I listen to Nicki Minaj, so what?
Terrance Jenkins I said I listen to Nicki Minaj doesn't mean I listen to ALL of her songs.
I can't really rock with female rappers either. Back then maybe, but NOW? HELL NO.
yup
+BeatsbyZay what about young ma nigga
GoonWire who?
BeatsbyZay search her up b
Rapsody?
I wanna the see footage of Vlad riding around jammin Lil Kim so I can make a meme....lmao

+LaMarcus M I M MAN AND I LOVE LIL KIM
4:44
"I'm going to the club, I'm feeling good, I'm looking good... Lemme put this Nicki Minaj on!" 😂😂😂😂
That got me too
😂😂😂😂
I could picture Vlad saying "I'm that bitch"
Bruh lmao vlad might low key be bi you on the real
lmfaooo
+Kishy414 twirling his head around like Caitlyn Jenner.
Nothing wrong wih it in my opinion Lauryn Hill and Missy Elliot 2 of my favorite rappers of all time
***** Hell yeah her 2nd album Da Real World is crazy too
***** To me she was a singer and a rapper at the same time
***** Don't listen to him like that so I wouldn't know I just always thought Lauryn was dope plus many people consider her hip hop anyway not just me
hell yeah on that one
absolutely
Two words, Lauryn Hill.
+K. Mills 🙏🏾
Lol that's the only example y'all name every time
Chris Green
Jean Grae was pretty ill, rhyming with The Roots and Talib Kweli.
+Chris Green Keny Arkana
+K. Mills how many rap songs does she have exactly?
Damn, Vlad getting punked by Jamar.
all the time lol
+cola james Nah not all the time. Jamar tries to dominate the conversation a lot with his opinions but at least Vlad voices his own.
***** nah just jokes, he don't be punking him like that, they do great interviews together
its pretty hilarious seeing him work on that damage control
I enjoy anyone with talent. Gender is irrelevant. Missy is one of my best of all time. I fuck with missy. And I am sure a lot of guys feel the same about gender not being an issue with talent.
Without gender and it's distinctions, you wouldn't exist.
Billy Graham Your comment is irrelevant in context.
+R0m0n3 without 0 your RUclips name is irrelevant. What you think of Alexx Carnifex?
Dee Jay One day you would look in the mirror and even it would puke in disgust.. please go away you decrepit human being. This trivial banter bores me.
+R0m0n3 Me
Lauryn Hill is the only exception because her message. She had substance.
Mc lite, queen lateefa , rah digga? Y’all sleep bruh
What lauryn hill was doing leans more towards the Rnb side
wasn’t only her you just dont know hip hop fr
Lauryn Hill and Erykah Badu to the HEART!
Rapsody!
wassup Dave
EXACTLY

my dude Jamar went in, he was like when you bout to hit the club do you put on nicki to get hype 😂
KIM HAD WAY HARDER SHIT AFTER HARDCORE, BUT VLAD LISTENS TO ALL OF NICKI'S ALBUM? WHICH HAS MORE GIRLY POP SHIT ON IT? HMM
right fuck Vlad. and you can't forget her hardest verse quiet storm was after biggie died
+Trap Rolex true shit
+Trap Rolex u must not know kim to say that was her best shit smh lol
6:14 Lord Jamar was like this interview is done. Lol
Usually agree with him but not on this. Hyper Masculinity is TOXIC and is the reason why men think other men can't enjoy female hip hop. All in the fear of being called gay. Masculinity so fragile that you think listening to female rap makes you gay. The only thing that makes you gay is BEING gay. He had not legit argument other than the typical. "it's gay or weird" as a guy. This is why you should teach boys to be men instead of teaching them to display this level of hyper masculinity defined by society's gender norms, which only shows insecurity.
I see it the other way around man it seems like everyone's a little sus these days
👏👏👏👏
+JB Blackson he even admitted it was an image thing to vlad "be careful what you say".....lord jamar came corny as fuck on this....Bahamadia is a female rapper who shits on him in every regard. I never bought a Lord Jamar album but i did buy multiple Bahamadia albums over the past 20 years
+JB Blackson Was just about to say the same thing. Real talk. It's funny because I know plenty of STRAIGHT men who like and will bump lil kim, missy elliot, and even nicki-hehe. Lord jamar is still trying to remain in a time where the strict and rigid conforms of masculinity demanded to be followed without examination, and where no one is allowed to break the mold.
+JB Blackson preach
This is Lord Jamar's biggest problem. He doesn't just hear music...he is overly concerned with WHO is doing it. That isn't being a fan, that's being a critic. There are some nice female rappers who made timeless music. Why would any man be ashamed of playing a song just because of WHO was rapping on it? Brat was nice, Rage was nice, Latifah, etc. etc. Corny shit. And I wish someone would think robbing me was the look because of wtf I was listening to...gtfoh.
L
for real. listen to music. he is just worried about everyone's opinion
You kno he was joking about the robbing shit right? Your the one overthinking, over analyzing, and takin shit way too seriously
U clowns won't understand at all. It's useless even telling u. U go ahead and fuck up everything.
Jules Green the female rappers you listed weren’t rapping about some “eat my pussy” shit, so a dude can actively listen to them instead of lil Kim, niki, etc. thats the bottom line
I RESPECT Female Rappers. And I like to hear their Rhymes, there's alot of clever Female MCs that can really rap. But I usually don't check for Female Rappers. Nicki is Good but I still haven't listen to any of her Albums. Lauryn Hill Yes. Badu Yes. But us men that Rap is the main thing.
90% of the people that disagree with him don't own a album from a female rapper and have no intention of buying one which kinda proves his point lol.
I can not lie Lord Jamar Had me Rollin when he said you need to think about this before you admit this
6:04 face needs to be a meme.
picture Vlad driving to the club blasting beez to the trap 😂😂😂
People keep saying Lauryn Hill but from what I recall her only album was more R&B then hip hop.
It must be tough to be Jamar, constantly doubting yourself and making sure you don't come across as anything but the most masculine alpha male because you're scared of judgment. Sort of a pitiable lifestyle.
Simple answer no we can't. They write songs for women to relate to EXCEPT Missy. That's why in my opinion she ain't one of the best female rappers, she's one of the best rappers period. Most of female mc's write songs about love or about relationships from their perspective. WE don't give a fuck about that shit.
You must of not been comprehending those lyrics, Missy Elliott is one of the most raunchiest rappers lol she always talks about sex ! 😅
Or a Relationship
***** yeah, but still talks about more than just that Pass the dutch, WTF. U know a lot more, this ain't nicki garage
+StonedRidah elaborate my man 🤔
***** what for? Just listen to Nicki and MIssy, and tell me there is no difference.
Lord Jamar is always the best interview on this channel.
Lady of Rage, Missy, Jean Grey, Da Brat, Latifah, Mia X, Eve, Rah Digga, Laryn Hill, Foxxy Brown, all talented....
Facts
I really don't understand why it's so wierd for a man to like female rappers. Why do people find it wierd if a man likes a female pop artist? I'm a man and Snow tha Product is my favorite female rapper. And by looking at my profile pic, you can tell that I'm a fan of Ariana. Music is music.
We don't relate to what most of them talk about. I don't relate to popping pussy. But I can relate to a pop artists turn up song. It's a total difference. Now people like Lauryn hill etc I can fuck with
by men you mean gay men right
+antoine lopez There are people cant relate to what rappers say in their songs. There are a lot of people that listen to rappers like Gucci mane, but he has fans that never set foot in the hood. There are a lot of rappers that brag about being rich.Most people dont know what its like to be rich. I love drill and trap music, but I was never part of a gang, I was never arrested, and I never sold drugs. I really dont relate to what most of these niggas are talking about in their songs. You dont have to relate to an artist to like them. And there are female rappers that talk about the same things that male rappers talk about.
+Trap Rolex no I don't mean gay men. You can be straight and like female artists.
If I see a straight guy listening to Nicki talking bout sucking sum dick and getting fucked in the ass I'm damn sure gonna look at him side ways FOH
Now Lord Jamar has pissed off the Hip-Hop female fan base. No one is safe. LOL!
+Randy H. Its fucked up when you can't be yourself without multiplying enemies to the 4th power.
I’ve always felt the same about female rappers. I can’t relate to them that much. They talk about female shit. The only female album I’ve purchased was a jean grae album.
This is one their funniest interviews. Lord Jamar is too funny😂😂😂
Im 22 but I remember when I was younger everyone in brooklyn was playing lil kim - put your lighters up , that shit still goes hard
LJ's face when he said he rode around listening to Nikki lmao
I feel what the God Lord Jamar saying. That's his personal preference. I've always listed to female rappers.
From Yo-Yo to Mia X and Gangsta Boo. Lauryn Hill, Eve, Remy gets play much play. Two new ladies love today are Sa-Roc and Rapsody.
I rock with female rappers heavy.
YOOOOOO the way LJ said & acted about gettin ready for the club and popping Nicki Minaj CD in 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Jamar got the mind of a child
I like Eve, Missy Elliot, Rah Digga and few others. :-)
Throw backs!
Missy is like the female Jay z or Andre 3000
+Justin Roman lol i wouldnt say that, foxy and kim was better than missy imo
"You might've got robbed, VLAD" LMAO
What!? Hardcore is a classic! Furthermore, MC Lyte, Lil Kim, and Foxy are Rap Goddesses!
I never saw a problem for a male to enjoy female MCs. Quality music and true artistry for me sees no gender or color. I came up in an era when such MCs like MC Lyte, Roxanne Shante, Salt N Pepa, Sweet T, Yo Yo, Monie Love and Queen Latifah were more respected, embraced and celebrated.
My attitude is if the music is good I am listening to it no matter what artist it is or what they look like. And on a side note I have a you tube channel type in Russell Mills May 22, 2017.
Mia x was that chick
Damn another one I forgot.. Good one!
Mia X and Mercedes
Agreed!
Mia X was my girl.
true
I get it. Now that I think about it I don't know dudes who ride around blasting female hip hop you ride to what you relate to men want to hear a mans voice speaking from a males point of view or the life you living but to entertain females over having drinks and such you going to have the hits the females like thats what a smart dude do its all part of the game
I love how Jamar was thinkin' about Vlad stoppin' @ the light of a rough neighborhood bumpin' some Lil' Kim and how niggas would of got 'em at. 6:56, His expression and laughter at that thought was priceless!
How about Rah Digga, Bahamadia or Heather B? They're greats!
Nowadays i only fux with Rapsody, back in the day Rage, Lauryn Hill & Jean Grae
+drew rivas true
I hate when people say "do Hip-Hop"
You don't DO Hip-Hop;You live/are Hip-Hop
You DO Rap.. Big difference
Lord Jamar makes his point every fuckin time!! 👏🏾👏🏾 I love it 😂
Lord Jamar has a warped way of thinking
...because YOU don't agree, it's warped.
Billy Graham
Hell yea
+TruthIsABitterPill, Preach!!
TruthIsABitterPill
You can call it whatever you want but i still think he has a warped way of thinking and i'm saying that with an "un-programed mind", some things i've heard him speak on i agree with but other views are off dude can be a little extreme at times.
BORICUA KING nah he be in point. I relate to his views
Jamar keeps it so real
I disagree with Lord Jamar. I'm male and I'd have no problem bumping an album with a dope female MC. Lord Jamar is entitled to his opinion, but that's all it is...his opinion.
Yep.
+black god agreed. aint nobody out here bumpin lil kim screamin "i used to be scared of the dick" these down low ass niggas need to stop
Please please bring us more with lord !!!!!! Dude is for sure real af
Back in the days: MC Lyte and Queen Latifa
this man is too much in his hypermasculinity, nothing wrong with listening to female spit, most of the popular females have rhymes out there that are definitely better than a lot of the guys
This is the last jamar interview I'm ever gonna watch.
That's a good idea. This dude is trash
I'm 43 years old, my Hip Hop listening seriously goes back to let's say 1984: UTFO, FAT BOYS, SALT & PEPA, etc. I never had a boomin system or anything but in my car, I've personally bumped: Salt & PEPA "I'll Take Your Man" "Tramp" "Push It"; MC Lyte "Cha Cha Cha" REALLY, I had every MC Lyte cassette up until she signed to So So Def; Nikki D "Daddy's Little Girl"; Queen Latifah, her first 5 albums; Antoinette, Lil Kim's debut album, Foxy Brown's debut album. I BUMPED THESE WITH MY BOYS IN THE CAR ON THE WAY TO THE CLUB OR JUST RIDING OUT! AND TRUST, NONE OF US WERE GAY!
if you say "not into female rap" I immediately question your knowledge
You listening to the wrong females bro... Jean Grae, Eternia, Rhapsody, Invincible, Lady of Rage, etc. etc. are all true MCs that would slaughter 99.9999% of their male counterparts.
You're someone that knows their MCs. Let's not forget Apani B Fly either.
JediMindTricks183 , perhaps, but no thoro is bending blocks bumping these ladies in there whip.💯
Ur missing his point he's saying aggressive music on a whole done by a woman is weird
😂 Vlad riding around singing "I just wanna be your favorite!"
"You might of got robbed Vlad." LOL! That shit was so real.
Erykah Badu said what she said and kept movin'. I didn't see anything wrong with it. Iggy literally clogged the wires with her nonsense for months on end. I thank goodness that it's finally over. Her face and voice got on my last damn nerve. I bought Lauryn Hill's album simply because I love the way she sang. Every single song knocked. Wonderful piece of art. Summer of '98 was so fun for me. I get what he's saying about female hip hop though. A lot of brothas feel the same way. My favorites were Yo-Yo, Bo$$, Mia X, Bahamadia and of course Lil' Kim and them. Basically, he's saying that it's kinda fruity for a brotha to ride around bumpin' Kim. Typically men that like other men in a sexual way bump her. Just sayin'..... Oh and Vladimir, bae you played yo'self right here.
This is one of the most close minded human beings on the planet. This guy cares way too much about what other people do, one of the biggest signs of insecurity.
Agreed
💯💯💯
Lord jamar keeps it real that's my dude
TRUTH. Im glad Jamar pointed this out. As a female, Im not playing a guy talking about drilling his opps, fighting, and slinging rocks, or whatever ect. It makes sense.
I bought Da Brat's funkdafied back in the day. She can spit.
It's crazy that men are so insecure
+pfelton44 Black men especially
Dear Vladimir,
thanks a lot for this one. Truly appreciate it. People really enjoy guys interviews including myself keep the real shit coming bruh thnx again.
80s-90s: MC Lyte, Queen Latifah, Lil Kim, Foxy Brown, Lauryn Hill, Monie Love, Yo-Yo, Lady of Rage, Rah Digga, Da Brat
00s-10s: *Missy Elliot, *Eve, Trina, *Mia X, Gangsta Boo, Nicki Minaj, *Remy Ma, Shawnna, *Rapsody, Cardi B, Meg Da Stallion, Latto, *Tierra Whack, *Dreezy, Young M A., Ice Spice, Glorilla
Sonja Blade, Nikki D, Bahamadia*, Latifah, MC lyte, Da Brat, L Boogie, even Foxy Brown, Eve, and JJ fad, Salt & Peppa.. Just in these times I can't relate to any female rappers, it's rare now that you hear females with bars- majority are over sexualized and talking about topics that are strictly for females. Nicki Minaj, to *shrugs* I dunno honestly..
-Ms Melody (RIP), as well..
-Heather B
-Rah Digga
Bar heavy females that I can bump
So Lord Jamar is saying that it's weird if I listen to a female rapper period? How does that make any sense? If u really want to be honest, I always found some female MC's to be a lot more skilled than their male contemporaries. As a straight male i dont really relate to lil kim's subject matter but I relate to the subject matter of a Rah Digga or Rapsody. I respect Lil Kim as an MC but i just dont get down with what she talks about bcuz that isnt what im into. But people tend to forget that Lord Jamar's mind works out of three terms most of the time. These terms are, STRAIGHT, BLACK, MALE. If u are white, gay, or a female then Lord Jamar sees u as being inferior. AGAIN, this is HIS MIND and thats what u are gonna get everytime. Which makes me ask the question, Why does VLAD keep inviting these same people on who are gonna give the same answer to every question that is asked? I respect Lord Jamar for his contributions to hip hop but u are gonna get the same shit over and over again.
well... i really like lord jamar's approach on his interview. i respect the fact that he said what he said and cleared the topic the way he did. if i could do that as a woman my life now would be much more in control of how things worked out for me. and i try, am not saying i ain't scared to speak up am just bringing up the fact that we need more people like him to show that expressing ourselves can go both ways. i mean he flipped tha script an showed his opinions on what the question was about. And that's the way it goes.
As a whole they were both right. Vlad was right to point out certain tracks by female rappers that go hard and can be played anywhere and Jamar was right to say I'm really not riding around bumping their albums. Lauryn Hill is the only female rapper whose album I've played in my own free time.
This dude so insecure with his true self. Lol. His need to show such a tough exterior on every topic is very revealing. He living a lie, in some way yet unknown.
Basically
Beautifully said
MC Lyte?
Missy Elliot saved hip hop for years.
R&b n hip hop
🤣😊
Lord Jamar makes so much sense if you take the emotion out of it and think rational and logical
I rock with some female rappers
Lil Kim is the GOAT,period.
Lauryn is the Conscious Lil Kim
Missy tho?
Nah...Missy say's random shit that rhymes...she is no MC...nobody looks forward 2 a Missy freestyle...lol
+Leo Rosado Eve?...no comment :)
I agree.
My mentality towards female rappers it's the same as Lord Jamar. ...real shit 😂
When I think about it I haven't ever bought a female album. But I have alot of respect for females rappers. Like Equipto said "It might be lady's night but it's a man's world".
snow tha product is sick
7:38 You can just tell Jamar think's Vlad suspect asf lmao
Some of the Gangsta Boo verses in early 36 Mafia were the shit. Her verse in Live By Yo Rep (b.o.n.e. Dis) is by far one of the best female moments in Hip Hop
this man is always consistent with his messages, allot of the young fans don't appreciate lord Jamar because he plays by old school rules, but I feel the same way on this topic, peace Jamar
It takes a real man to admit he listens to female rappers. Only closet cases that try to maintain the microscopic amount of masculinity they think they have try to avoid the fact that some our sistas have dropped the DOPEST shit in hip hop to date.
This guy being interviewed is a closet case
He's not a real man
I listened to some female's but never would ride around bumpin their music 😂😂😂
Lol i used to read The Boondocks and i remember when Huey caught Riley bumpin Lauryn Hill in his headphones and kept clownin him and shit....that shit was funny as hell..
Take a shot every time Jamar says ''You know what I mean?''
Dudes acting like lord jamar is a real lord of something 😂 he doesnt make the fuccin decision if someone likes female hip hop or not, vlad gassin this dude up making him feel too entitled tbh.
Jamal has an ego that doesn't match up with reality and the mind of a child. You know how young people view their elder idols as examples of what they want to become when they get older, well he's the opposite and definitely an example of what young adults do not want to grow into and become as they get older.
Lord Jamar's masculinity is SO fragile that he would be embarrassed to listen to a female rapper not in a "passive" way. meaning he actually wants to. like. wow.
He's very closed-minded and dismissive.
And that's just 2 negative qualities he harnesses, there's hundreds more and he's just an all-around negative / shit person in general. And I'm not going to list those hundreds of negative qualities because I'll be here forever and I have a life.
And it's all these negative qualities that he has (one of which is self-centeredness) which is why so many people don't like him.
I agree with Lord Jamar I never rode around listening to female rap either
I can enjoy women hip hop. Lauryn hill and Nicki minaj are two females artist I would listen to. Lauryn hill is by far the best female rapper and she sings like an angel.
I like Nicki a lot trust me I even got caught with this chick I used to live with she was like can I ask you something? I'm all thinking she gone ask me if I'm gay or some shit but she was like " Every Time I walk into the room and your listening to Nicki Minaj you close everything real fast, if you like her it's ok you don't have to hid it" I was so embarrassed lmfao I don't know why now I don't give a fuck. Fuck and opinion that girl can spit. Fuck what a hater got to say if she wasn't saying something or spitting fire she wouldn't be up almost 70-80M's talk about a female rapper? Bitch is a international superstar and mind you she just halfway into this shit, don't play yourself and to my guys if a female is spitting and she spitting heat or not talking about dick, cars, bags, & heels just give her credit bruh. All these comments and yet REMY MA has not been mentioned 😂
- sus nigga
Sus AF
***** obviously you do care or you wouldn't have even responded....lol....ole sus ass nigga
+Cliff Smith Na bruh just an example
I ain't ashamed to say I ride around with some Kim playing. Da Brat, Foxy Brown, Lady of Rage, Rhapsody, 24K, Eve, Shawnna, Gangsta Boo, Charli Baltimore, Nonchalant, Missy Elliott, Bahamadia, and MC Lyte. I listen to their albums AND EVEN SING ALONG(obviously NOT verbatim tho as that would be extremely weird).
I never rode around listening to a female rapper but I listen to them to see if they have skills or not...but Jamar is too worried about what others think...I pulled up at the corner store in the hood on a Friday night slumping Vanilla Ice, cuz I wanted someone to say something
I know EXACTLY what he's talk'n about. It's not that I as a man don't think that there are highly skilled female rappers. It's the subject matter & voice tone that I cannot relate to as a man.
Ron Dias TV in the house... a Vlogger/Prankster from Toronto!
Vlad bout to tell us he was listening to "My Neck My Back" soon......
Lord Jamar is kinda right. You see the thing is female rappers rap about doing female shit and finessing niggas and all that other dumb shit. It's very rare that a female MC will give a hip hop listener a male perspective on anything. It's all about what they could get from niggas for free and how sexy they are and all that. At least that's what most of em be saying. That's why I'm glad he mentioned Lauryn Hill because she out of all of them, she gave an all round perspective. I feel like
female rappers reach out to other female rappers and was not meant for us men to relate to it. Most female rappers don't even rap about some real life shit or some philosophical stuff. I myself have never listened to female rappers and the only one I ever liked was one verse from Foxy Brown on that song with Nas ''Affirmative
Action''.
I gotta agree with Lord on this one
