Comment:

When Salt-N-Pepa detonated the charts with their 1987 beat-box bonanza "Push It," the first all-female rap crew not only smashed down the walls between pop and hip-hop success, they also injected a much-needed dose of girl power into a scene that was already steeped in testosterone. These [i]first[/i] First Ladies of Hip-Hop rapped a path down which other urban sisters happily tore, from pint-sized powerhouse MC Lyte (the big sounds of "Ruffneck") to street siren Lil' Kim ("The Jump Off") to the regal sounds of Queen Latifah ("U.N.I.T.Y.") and the supa-dupa fly girl herself, Missy Elliott ("Get Ur Freak On"). And there are many, many more, which is why we bring you a hip-hop ladies Essentials packed like a Prada purse with everything from the too-cool sounds of Lauryn Hill and "Doo Wop (That Thing)" to the nasty-girl deep cut "Bad Babysitter" by Princess Superstar.
