Hip-hop has always been a male-dominated genre. But every era has a number of female MCs who carve out their own lane and change the game. Gangsta Boo (Lola Mitchell) is one of those gems. As the only female MC of Three 6 Mafia, her intricate, triplet flows and thoughtful sex positive rhymes paved the way for the Cardi Bs and Nicki Minajs that rule the pop charts today. Gangsta Boo's influence also continues to touch hot underground artists, such as Princess Nokia, who has adopted Boo's iconic "yeah hoe" ad-lib. And she hasn't stopped making great music either, dropping stellar guest features with Run the Jewels and solo projects like 2015's standout Candy, Diamonds, & Pills.
