Eminem, the Beastie Boys, Yelawolf, Paul Wall, Insane Clown Posse, Vanilla Ice — you’ve likely heard of a white guy rapper. Nicki Minaj, Missy Elliott, Lil’ Kim, Foxy Brown, Lauryn Hill, MC Lyte — chances are you’re familiar with a black woman rapper. But white women rappers are a little harder to come by.
