[High.Q.] Immortal Technique - The Illest - YouTube Jean Grae. No disrespect to Foxxy, but she would get murdered if you threw her on tracks with most male rappers. Jean Grae can easily hold her own. |

I wouldn't say they'd either really get shown up by male rappers. Both are talented in their own right.
And there are many male rappers who couldn't hold a candle to Foxy and Jean. I just think Foxy falls into the same pitfalls as Lil Kim and more recently Minaj in that she plays to the stereotype of being a rap bitch instead of her own credible artist barring what gender they are. You wouldn't hear Jean rap about how she wants a man to provide her with diamonds and ****. |

Fat Joe: The fat one that you love to hate, he grew up in the Bronx and along with long time accomplice Big Pun was a major figure in Latino Hip-Hop having been a member of the influential group DITC and Terror Squad.
In 1998 after a bunch of underground work, he signed with Atlantic releasing four albums before he began distributing on his own label. Joe's been releasing material for near on 20 years and even had time to fit in a beef with that phony wanksta 50 cent. Kool Moe Dee: The first rapper to appear at The Grammys. In the late 1970s, Kool Moe Dee formed the influential old school hip hop group the Treacherous Three. It was with The Treacherous Three in 1981 that Kool Moe Dee performed his freestyle onstage roast of old school party rapper Busy Bee Starski, a performance frequently cited as a pivotal moment in the development of the battle rap. He also released 5 solo albums between 86 and 94 and since sparked controversy with the release of his book; God on the mic stating his all time top 50 list of MC's. What he lacked in technique he made up on by being in the right place at the right time. |
