Music is a male-dominated field. Women are not always taken as seriously as we should be, so sometimes we have to put our foot down.
Missy ElliotThe rapping is cool, but my lines aren't all that fly. People like Biggie Smalls or Jay-Z who say stuff that you have to rewind and listen to twice and be like, "Wow, what made them say that?" or "I would have never thought about saying that" - those are rappers I really look up to. As far as flows, I can give you flows all day.
