“I see a lot of the girls out there doing their thing, spitting about their real experiences. I’m a big fan of that and supporting other women in this industry,” says Remy Ma. “Being a female rapper in this industry is tough, but we have made lots of effort to level the playing field.”

The Grammy-nominated recording artist continues, “There is so much talent and so many people who can pen, if I can give them space or platform, I will. The Queens Get The Money is a rap battle experience, the first of its kind, for female MCs to show their talent.”
Throughout her three-decade career, Remy Ma released hit records like the solo single “Conceited” and the “All the Way Up” collaboration with Fat Joe, French Montana, and Infared. The Bronx-bred spitter also broke out as a television personality on Love & Hip Hop: New York, State of the Culture, and Meet the Mackies.
“Women are killing it in the game right now. There are more successful, female rappers than ever before in this industry. This is a big moment, and I want to rally behind that and build other MCs up,” adds Remy Ma.
