Lisa 'Left Eye' Lopes, Missy Elliott, Lil Kim... female rappers often get sucked into limiting themselves to what they rap about but Left Eye really rose above all of that, she's the absolute best in my opinion. Missy Elliott is consistent. Lil Kim's got some stand out moments. I like Azealia Banks but she's too new to really be considered one of the greats and her career may well have ended before it even started. I like Trina, Lady, Foxy Brown, Khia et al in an ironic way but they more or less restrict themselves to talking about the same **** over and over which is a bit mind numbing. Iggy Azalea has the potential to be one of the greatest of all time. Nicki Minaj is a parody of herself but Roman's Revenge, her feature on Kanye's track Monster, her song Massive Attack... they all show signs of a brilliant rapper. Wish she'd ditch the pop-lite rapping **** for a while and focus on establishing herself instead of featuring all over the place.
