    Correct me if I am wrong.

    Most of the rappers are male. Why low number of females?

    Also, share your favourite singles from female rappers.

          Women are underrepresented in a lot of roles throughout the world. It is usually due to some combination of social norms, expected gender roles, lack of opportunities, and old fashioned sexism.

          It's also possible you simply don't see many female rappers because it's not the music you seek out. There are lots of very talented women in the rap scene. Though they certainly do not get the attention they deserve (see the paragraph above).

          Edit: to answer the second part of your question, I'll go old school and say Rebirth of Slick by Diggable Planets. Missy Elliott and Lauren Hill are top-shelf, too. Other people here have mentioned Doechii; she's a new star on the rise.

            Even though there's probably a larger number of male rappers, i wouldn't say the number of female ones is "low" necessarily. That being said, the reason is probably sexism lol.

            Anyways, here's my favorite songs from female rappers:

            • Decline Him, Quay Dash
            • StickUp!, Kari Faux
            • Sugar Mama, Dua Saleh
            • 1991, Azealia Banks
            • Drown, DonMonique
            • Estragen, Apani B Fly + several others
            • Hustling, Trina

              Not sure but there's also not a lot female metal musicians, but I have a feeling that's changing more and more. Prolly just because rock n roll used to be a manly guy thing? I can imagine similar things used to be like that in hiphop?

                If you're looking for recommendations, everything by Missie Elliot is worth listening to.

                  I really love Doechii, especially "Denial is a river". But her whole most recent mixtape is amazing. Also do checkout her Tiny Desk performance, she is the one to watch I think.

                    I was going to mention her Tiny Desk show. It's a banger!

                      I'll echo what others have said and mention Rainforest by Noname (or any of her other music)

                          Really you could put all of DPS and I'd count it. Ladybug is so cool, I love all her verses in any of their songs.

                              I misread the title until I saw you said that "there are lots of very talented women in the [...] scene."

                                  YouTube recommended CupcakKe to me a while back and her style is fun. I don't remember which song I like best, but Old Town Hoe was a good one.
