You guys do realize that Suga T, Mia X and Da Brat were all there right? They came onstage with Queen Latifah at the end.

Again, I think Foxy wasn't invited because she had beef with so many of the artists that were there.
It's easy to forget, but her wiki refreshed my memory. These are all the people that she beefed with THAT WERE THERE

Queen Latifah
Mc Lyte (yes she beefed with Latifah AND Lyte)
Lil Kim
Remy Ma
Eve
Lady of Rage
Nikki D
Ms. Jade


So Foxy wasn't invited because she's a POS individual. But if we are strictly talking about what she has done in the rap game, she definitely DESERVES to be honored.

Not Saying Foxy Is Some Footnote But She Don't Need To Be Honored W The Greats, She Shouldn't Even Be Lumping Herself In W Lauryn
Exactly The Firm was a group album , it didn't go platinum and people bought it for Nas, Dre team up. To state that she jump started Jay Z career is to say his talent had nothing to do with it. She is a C level talent at best and deserves nothing .

Gotta be the personal thing

Foxy Brown was the first female MC to go #1 with a straight rap album. Lauryn was the first but her album was r&b heavy.

Her bona fides in the game can't be questioned on an industry level.

To be honest, away from Rage, Paula Perry and Bahamadia, most female MC's were written for.

I think impact should be awarded though. Lyte, Latifah, and Salt & Pepa are undeniable Hip Hop legends. What Kim brought in around mid-'95 was impactful too. So she deserved to be honored. Foxy always said she looked up to Kim back in the day, before they started beefing and when they were talking about doing the Thelma and Louise album. Kim's first album is arguably a classic. She was definitely a natural while B.I.G. was still behind the scenes doing the writing and coaching. Foxy was dope as hell, but she wasn't as dope as Kim was early on, in my opinion.

I can't see them not honoring Lauryn. She took the female MC to levels it hasn't been since then. Even though she didn't do all the writing and producing, what she did with her album hasn't been done since that dropped. Which is probably why it kinda ended there for her. It's hard to top that kind of classic work.
