MISSY ELLIOTT, “SHE’S A BITCH”

“As far as that bitch category, Missy is one of those people that’s very independent. She does her own thing makes her own money and That’s a strong definition of the word, ‘bitch.’”

ANGIE MARTINEZ, LIL KIM, DA BRAT & MISSY ELLIOTT, “LADIES NIGHT”

“That’s the ultimate classic. It needs to be redone with the new wave of girls.”

TRINA, “DA BADDEST BITCH”

“That was one of those records that after I did it, everybody in the world was the baddest bitch. Everywhere I go somebody is trying to prove to me that they’re the baddest bitch in their town and I would say,’No doubt ma you got this, this is your world.’ And that’s whats up.”

QUEEN LATIFAH, “LADIES FIRST”

“I kind of remade that record later on down the line on my second album, with Eve. It was one of those records that just let you know, ladies be on top of your game. It was one of those unity types of records.”

LADY OF RAGE, “AFRO PUFFS”

“That’s like the ultimate, you can’t leave that out. That’s a classic record.”

MC LYTE, “CHA CHA CHA”

That was my favorite record. That was the record that when I turn on the TV I’m like, ‘Who is this girl?’ I loved her. She’s super dope.”

DA BRAT, “FUNKDAFIED”

EVE, “LOVE IS BLIND”

“That’s the real hold your girl down, you not taking no mess from no dude, you ain’t gonna have nobody hitting on you song. And at that point, I’ve had girlfriends that have been in domestic violence relationships and that song was their inspiration.”

JAY-Z FEAT. FOXY BROWN, “AIN’T NO NIGGA”

“Even though it was Foxy and Jay-Z, ‘Aint No Nigga’ is My Jam,’ I love that. Foxy added something to the song that turned it up for the females. Every girl wanted to be singing ‘ain’t no nigga like the one I got.’ That’s what I’m saying with the girls. All these records with all these women, can you imagine what the 2011 version would sound like? Any mixture would be sick!”

LAURYN HILL, “DOO WOP (THAT THING)”

“Everything from Lauryn Hill! We can make a whole list with just her stuff. That’s a living testament to listen to a woman that’s so beautiful and so inspiring. She just brings tears to your eyes.”
