In honor of Joe Budden saying it’s over, what are actually the best rap albums made by women?

My picks are

Not available on streaming, MC Lyte’s second album has awesome beats and lyte has such a great voice. Great storytelling moments as always and the single Cha Cha Cha is so damn cool she’s like the female Rakim. Obviously her debut too, she’s the goat to me

The storytelling, realness, personality, technical bar work and versatility on this album make it a special one for me. Most men can’t make an album this good as an mc, she’s vicious no envy

What you guys got? Fair warning, I’ll be deleting any mentions of R&B albums with a few rap verses on them

rico nasty - nasty

That’s it thats all

/thread

Youd say this is a rap album?

Yes she raps on almost every song

Pinkprint is a very dope album

Simz between SIMBI and No Thank You, she has a dope catalog and a great team of singers and producers

this some heat

Might be this

or

hm

Nothing is topping this. Legendary

Whats the obsession with saying female rap instead of women rapping? The rap isn’t female, the rapper is female. The rap album was made by a woman. It was not a female rap album. Nobody says woman though, idgi

the “rap album” is a noun.

Missy got it

All them other b****es is copy cats ya heard

Lotta albums worse than Invasion of Privacy being posted

Get the nicki minaj outta here, ya sit and listen to that?

Add Miss E, Under Construction and Eve's Scorpion to that list

Funny to see what Joe Budden podcast has turned into post r&m and turning into literally “say anything to go viral.” And it’s #nasty to witness.

That being said:

(And Telefone)

(Grey Area + Introvert + No Thank You is a fire 3peat)

@Rockman was tryna bait with that post BUT there is a reason people have been waiting for her to come out with a new album

La Chat - Murder She Spoke

My picks wash these respectfully (besides Foxy)

Hardcore overrated and Nicki and Missy ain’t hip hop enough

Miseducation? A rap album?

I have a real problem with that being the first album people point to

Too much singing! I said rap album

“Woman rap album” would sound awkward

In my actual post in OP I worded it as “rap albums made by women” which is obviously better but not really good for a thread title. I just assume people know what I’m talking about, and today “female rap” is definitely a thing and a lane in itself. Some people call it p**** rap should I do that lol
