The queen of all media hit her stride with her third release, NATURE OF A SISTA. Fighting for respect for the female rapper, Latifah unleashes her lyrical fury over a set of old school beats, produced by the likes of Naughty By Nature and Luis Vega. In an era when rap was dominated by male braggadocio and gangsta posing, Latifah brought a fresh female energy to the genre. Queen Latifah gets the party started right with "Latifah's Had It Up 2 Here," her manifesto on the state of hip hop. On "Nuff' Of The Ruff' Stuff" she gives voice to the frustration that the sisters were feeling with the disrespect they were facing. On "Fly Girl" she dismisses men who view her only as a sex object with the line "Easy love is something that I ain't/besides I don't know you from a can of paint." And adding a new dimension to her talent, Latifah showcases her crystal clear singing voice on "Give Me Your Love."
