Female Rap Artists

If someone is asked asked to name a popular female rapper, first, they'll think for a minute and then retort artists like Nicki Minaj and Lil' Kim. These women used their sexuality to become popular and rise up the totem pole in the patriarchal hip-hop culture. These women use hypersexuality to sell records and to become more popular. Hypersexuality is the exaggerated caricatures used to glamorize society's idea of the ideal woman. These women use their sex, and body assets to attract fans.
