So last night at the Grammy’s, Cardi B became the first female solo artist to win the ‘Best Rap Album of the Year Award’. With the feat, she has cemented her place as one of the handful of richest female rappers from around the world.<\/p>\n

In the past, all the ‘best albums awards’ from the Hip-Hop genre were held by men. Rap, in particular, is a male-dominated\u00a0genre and it wasn’t till rappers like Missy Elliot came along that fans considered women as legit artists. Now rappers like Nicki Minaj are considered even better than their male counterparts.<\/p>\n

Cardi B’s album\u00a0Invasion Of Privacy\u00a0<\/em>was also nominated for ‘Best Album of the Year’ but Sarah Musgraves took home the prize for her album Golden Hour.<\/em><\/p>\n

In light of this milestone moment here are the richest female rappers of the year.<\/p>\n
