WHY ISN’T THERE A BIG 4 IN HIP HOP?
Why is the Big 3, not the Big 4 in #Hiphop ?
.
I was watching Everyday Struggle and they were referencing the Big 3, which we all know is Kendrick, Drake, & Cole. This is common when people are discussing the top current rappers.
.
However, these same people (not just the hosts of ES) will admit that #NickiMinaj has killed all her features in 2018 and she is a legend.
.
Sexism definitely plays a role in this. I do think that Nicki is judged more critically & held to different standards than her male peers. However, there may be another element as to why some are resistant to including her on the same level as the Big 3...... they believe she isn’t battle tested🤔
.
Many have forgotten that Roman’s Revenge buried an icon🤷🏽♀️ Nicki is never afraid to address a person on a rap song, to the point that people cry she’s a bully😭😭😭Nicki even challenged a “rapper” to sit in a room, hear a beat for the first time, and rap battle. That rapper decided it was best to stay positive 😭
.
But, do you think cause she doesn’t have those Drake battle moments; people dismiss her?
