Correct me if I am wrong.

Most of the rappers are male. Why low number of females?

Also, share your favourite singles from female rappers.

    YouTube recommended CupcakKe to me a while back and her style is fun. I don’t remember which song I like best, but Old Town Hoe was a good one.

    Women are underrepresented in a lot of roles throughout the world. It is usually due to some combination of social norms, expected gender roles, lack of opportunities, and old fashioned sexism.

    It’s also possible you simply don’t see many female rappers because it’s not the music you seek out. There are lots of very talented women in the rap scene. Though they certainly do not get the attention they deserve (see the paragraph above).

    I really love Doechii, especially “Denial is a river”. But her whole most recent mixtape is amazing. Also do checkout her Tiny Desk performance, she is the one to watch I think.

    The majority of hip-hop I listen to is female. Tierra Whack (who imho is one of the world’s all time greatest rapper), Latto, Glorilla, Megan Thee Stallion, Bea (despite the beef), Audrey Nuna, Young Miko, City Girls, Cardi B, Mariah the Scientist, Omeretta the Great, Doja, Ms. Nina, Renni Rucci, Lady Lashure, THOT Squad, Londynn B, LightSkinKeisha, REI AMI, Baby Tate, Tommy, Noname, Nitty Scott … and so on

    Not sure but there’s also not a lot female metal musicians, but I have a feeling that’s changing more and more. Prolly just because rock n roll used to be a manly guy thing? I can imagine similar things used to be like that in hiphop?
