      I was watching an interview with Phyllis Yvonne Stickney where she explains how New Jack City changed movies forever because it became soundtrack rather than actor driven. This opened up doors for rappers and shut out many classically trained actors. But I am sure Latifah would have made her way through anyways. We Jersey Girls persevere, lol

      She's not even secretive tbh.
      I'd say low key.
      She just doesn't walk around with an entourage, however many bodyguards and going to trendy venues and overhyped places to be. She doesn't feel the need to be at the opening of such and such places.
      When She's not working and promoting her work, She just lives her life.
      It's actually easier than We think. But the celebrity worship and the industry that feeds into it will make you believe otherwise.

    Been waiting for you to do one on Foxy Brown. She's the most controversial female rapper. All the rumors. Her attitude. Plus she broke barriers being dark skinned and 'marketable'/commercially successful. I remember all the rumor mill in the 90s about her being mixed (Filipino and Black) because people really couldn't stomach a dark skinned woman being attractive. She also said Def Jam used to lighten her photos I believe.
