Queen Latifah

Queen Latifah, born Dana Owens, was one of the earliest female rappers in hip-hop who rose to fame rapping about issues in the lives of Black women, particularly, street harassment and domestic violence and her 1989 debut album All Hail the Queen encompasses all that she stands for to date.

The former Native Tongues crew member is well remembered for Black Reign, her most commercially successful rap album to date and hits like ‘Ladies First’ and ‘UNITY.’ She was also big on women having a united front.
