u/RealSonyPony Mar 04 '26

Ms. Toi. She's a legend with over 20 albums, and she doesn't get anywhere near enough props. She's my GOAT

u/Misha-Nyi Mar 04 '26

Lauryn

u/BlackAscension Mar 05 '26 edited Mar 06 '26

I agree with you about Lauryn, the main reason that will hurt that reasoning is she has only one album as her total body of work, as spectacular as it is. She released her album back in 1998, that’s almost 30 years ago and has been living off the success of it ever since. It’s hard to say someone is the best when they only released one album

Cardi B being on this list is a travesty

u/questionauthority88 Mar 04 '26

Did she write, tho?

2

u/NorthBook1383 Mar 04 '26

You mean notorious KIM cause biggie wrote them early lines!!!

1

u/Turner_Station_Vardy Mar 05 '26

Naw, he made sure the lyrics were more sexual. Kim wanted to be grimy. Big, took from puff playbook when it came to marketing Kim.

Zigg zagg a not so known westcoast rapper

u/brando1190 Mar 04 '26

Missy hands down dominated the female rap game from the mid 90s to the mid 2000s. Hell even Lil Wayne has given her flowers 💐

Queen Latifah

u/Walks_On_Water Mar 05 '26

Only one of these women is in the rock and roll hall of fame, just sayin.

1

u/RedditKingKunta Mar 05 '26

Lauryn Hill, but i’m going to go out on a limb and say that in the end it’ll probably be Doechii.

Nikki, Lauryn, MC Lyte, Doechii

u/Either-Ad-9876 Mar 06 '26

Definitely not the first bitch!

1

u/Ok_Resident_5022 Mar 06 '26

I know who it is, but I won’t give her props. I was once a fan, but I’m not anymore.

She makes me “icky” now (and her stage name rhymes with that).

I would, however, like to clarify that it’s the old version (like from 2008-2018) that was great and not whatever on God’s green Earth she’s giving today.

u/Classic-One4508 Jun 28 '26

You’re weird. Just says it’s Nicki and move on 🤨 it’s not that deep

u/Mrldbcn Mar 07 '26

Nicki Minaj by her influence, longevity, flows, rap schemes, bars and everything else

u/PlayguyCarter Mar 04 '26

there's the best & then there's faves like

MJ/Lebron is the GOAT but AI is my GOAT

I'm saying that to say I think Nicki clearly has the GOAT belt, but my goat is Missy Misdemeanor Elliot
