We like to compare Nas and Jay-Z because of their feud, but really, those two have nothing in common with each other. Both strived in Hip Hop by perfecting their two different styles.
Comparably, this is the same with Lauryn Hill and Missy Elliot. L-Boggie, may have ILLmatic's sister album (probably the greatest female album), But Missy has 4 platinum albums, and one 2x platinum album.
However, just like Jay-Z with his overwhelming commercial success over Nas - Missy will always left off the top of the GOAT female list because of one Amazing output.

Lauryn Hill^^^Yeah, that's gonna see some fun results.
Can we include Hill's career with the Fugees? Technically she sold more records than Missy, and has more classics. -

Only If we can factor in Missy's involvement with Aaliyah, and hits with Timbo (hottest producer in the game in those days). Missy created trends in the Early 00's. He had a cult following just like Minaj does now, but she always kept it artistic.
If we an factor in that, yeah we can include the Fugees. Her limited catalog could use some help, lol -
Another Female and the Reason Why..Erykah Badu >>>
Jill Scott >>>
They both write just as good as Lauryn Hill and they're more consistent. They both sing better. They have longevity. They're both relevant today (which can't be said for Lauryn or Missy).
In other words, Lauryn Hill only has 2 albums and lol @ Missy being brought up in this discussion.
P.S. Are we talking femcees or just women artist in general? -
Boogie didn't need a lot of material. She made 1 solo and 2 albums with the Fugees and she's still being jocked today. Its not quantity, its quality and L is quality.
I don't even know why Missy is in the conversation. Eve, Kim, Foxy, Lyte, Latifah, Jean Grae hell even Rapsody are better MCs than Missy.

Miseducation is the best album released from a female emcee ever, as far as I'm concerned.
I'm going with Lauryn, Missy had a good run though.
And Queen Latifah, Kim, Da Brat, Eve and Foxy got way better songs then Nicki imo.

Nicki look good and all, but she ain't even top five. -

That's mostly R&B though... and the rappers she worked with weren't that good. But let's say we do add Missy's production and features... they still don't add up to The Score and Miseducation. Not to mention LH ? on Missy on the mic. -
Another Female and the Reason Why..If we're talking strictly femcees, then it's Lauryn Hill by a long shot.
-
Lauryn Hill. She made one of the only female rap albums that i could listen to. Jean Grae and Rapsody are also amazing but are not as good as hill. I think they are way better than missy tho.

Lauryn Hill75% of these chicks don't even write their own material, I never understood how you can be a MC if you don't write your own material.....honorable mention: MC Lyte and Jean Grae
