Nick Cannon Reveals His Mount Rushmore Of Female Rap

Nick Cannon is handing out flowers to the ladies.

While promoting his new radio show “The Daily Cannon,” the father of 12 stopped by Bootleg Kev and was asked to name his female rap Mount Rushmore. He settled on three GOATs: Nicki Minaj, Missy Elliott, and Lauryn Hill.

“Nicki is a GOAT regardless of gender.” “She’s one of the coldest artists I’ve seen in the last decade,” Nick said. “You can’t sleep on her skill, her pen, sonically she changed the game.”

He went on to call Nicki the “rap queen.” “Gender and sex aside, she is dope,” he continued. “

To me, the only person who has the same level of talent as her and who we should even be comparing her to is Lauryn Hill.”

Nick debated between Nicki and Lil’ Kim at first before deciding on Nicki after Kev said Kim didn’t “write her sh*t.”

Nicki—who also earned a spot on the Spotify x RapCaviar Mount Rushmore of the 2010s—reposted the interview clip and responded with the heart hand emoji after hearing Nick’s flattering words.

During the interview, Nick also revealed his all-time favorite MCs, including Tupac, Ice Cube, and JAY-Z, whom he referred to as the “best to ever do it.” His list was completed by Eminem, Drake, and Kendrick Lamar.

Nick debuted his new radio show “The Daily Cannon” on Amazon’s Amp app on Monday, and he welcomed his first guest, NLE Choppa.
