Political Quotes

On the recordMarch 13, 2018
Throughout the years, artists such as Elvis Presley, Frank Sinatra, and Bruce Springsteen have been recognized on the floor of the House of Representatives. Today I rise to honor the top 10 female MC hip-hop collaborations of all time. Number 10: Eve, ``My Chick Bad remix.'' Number 9: Monie Love, ``My Buddy.'' Number 8: Missy Elliott, ``Hot Boyz remix.'' Number 7: Remy Ma, ``Ante Up remix.'' Number 6: Lauryn Hill, ``Ready or Not.'' Number 5: Nicki Minaj, ``Up All Night.'' Number 4: Da Brat, ``Da B Side.'' Number 3: Lady of Rage, ``G Funk Intro.'' Number 2: Fox Boogie Brown, ``Ain't No.'' Number 1: Representing BK to the fullest, Lil' Kim, ``Quiet Storm remix.'' These extraordinary MCs, along with legendary pioneers such as Queen Latifah, MC Lyte, and Salt-N-Pepa, shattered hip-hop's glass ceiling with their skill, talent, and lyrical ability. As we celebrate Women's History Month here in the United States Congress, these dynamic women are worthy to be praised. ____________________
