Lil Wayne Names His Top 5 Rappers Of All Time And Missy Elliott Tops The List

Lil Wayne sat down with Nick Wright for the latest episode of ‘What’s Wright’ on Thursday. Where Weezy was asked to name his Top 5 rappers of all time.

Lil Wayne took the time to give his number one spot to Missy Elliott. Wright seemed to be surprised by his answer, saying “Wow, ok.”

Then Wayne went on to explain why he put Missy in the top spot. “It’s always gonna be first Missy Elliott. She’s a huge influence of everything I’ve ever done. JAY-Z is the best ever to speak. Biggie, obviously. Then I have the whole Goodie Mob. Then I have UGK.”

Elliott has been referred to as the “Queen of Rap”, the “Queen of Hip Hop”, and the “First Lady of Hip Hop” by several media outlets.

Elliott’s experimental concepts in her music videos changed the landscape of what a hip-hop video had as themes at the time.

Her catalogue of songs have included themes of feminism, gender equality, body positivity and sex positivity since the beginning of her career, being one of the first to center on these topics among hip-hop and R&B performers.




The Guardian and The Observer considered her America’s first Black female music mogul, as she gained in 2001 total control over her image and music, and the opportunity to sign artists.
