Bossed Up Barbie
@Bossedup_barbiee is using her diversity to establish herself as the Southās next great female act. Her breakout single, āGot Me F***** Up,ā showcased her spicy bars and Florida swag, but it was her 2020 r&b single, āBlame On Me,ā that put this star on the map. A master at blending sultry vocals with catchy rhymes, this Def Jam signee has proven that she is not one to be toyed with.
Kali
WhenĀ @Kaliii released her hit record, āDo a B*tch,ā this year, she took the internet by storm. The record quickly ballooned to over 12 million Spotify streams and earned a remix from the icon Rico Nasty herself. This is an incredible feat for the independent Georgia musician who credits Aaliyah and Nicki Minaj as her inspirations. Her debut EP, āThis Why They Mad Now,ā has attracted millions of streams and solidified this beauty as rapās next it-girl.
Omeretta
Regarded as one of hip-hopās most gorgeous women,Ā @OmerettaĀ has proven for years that she transcends far beyond a pretty face. Her freestyles have taken social media by storm for years, and now, this flawless rhymer is finally getting the recognition she deserves. Recently announced as the newest cast member of Love & Hip Hop Atlanta, Omeretta is gearing up to show the rap game what itās been missing.Ā
Enchanting
When it came to her now-famous verse on āNo Luv,ā alongside her 1017 labelmates,Ā @LuvenchantingĀ understood the assignment. Hip-hop was instantly drawn to this tatted-up raptress whose raspy cadence enchanted all that heard her. Though she was a standout on the track, Enchanting was dropping music for a few years before signing with Gucci Mane. The visual for her latest single, āFreaky Deaky,ā featuring newcomer Coi Leray has attracted nearly 300k views on Youtube.Ā
Asian Doll
@AsiandabratĀ is no rookie despite many viewing her as such. She signed to Gucci Mane in 2018, though it was short-lived. Just two years later, Asian Doll announced that she was an independent artist. The news left many counting her out, believing that her career was over before it had really begun. However, the 24-year-old has persevered through personal tragedy and career ups and downs to become one of todayās most notable names in female rap, finally getting the credit she deserves. With the release of her wildly popular single, āNunnadatsh*t,ā and employing Stacia Mac as her new manager, Asian Doll has found her way back to the top.Ā
Lakeyah
Signed to Atlantaās biggest label, Quality Control Music,Ā @LakeyahĀ is finding her way on everyoneās hottest rap list. The 2021 XXL Freshman has a treasure trove full of music, but her records āBigFlexHerā featuring 42 Dugg and āFemale Goatā alongside fellow QC artists, City Girls, have placed a spotlight on the 20-year-old rapper. Videos for both singles have attracted millions of YouTube views, signaling that she may be the next rap giant to emerge from QC.
