Vh1 2016 Hip Hop Honors made me realize...

Image
After a six-year hiatus, VH1's Hip-Hop Honors returned on Monday night with a program dedicated entirely to female rappers.  The honorees consisted of Queen Latifiah , Lil Kim , Missy Elliot , and Salt-N-Pepa all which were honored with amazing performances of their hit songs. Remy Ma opened the show with Missy's classic single "Work It."An unexpected Ke Ke Palmer helped honor SaltNPepa with their classic "Push it." Queen Latifah's " U.N.I.T.Y " tribute embraced the Black Lives Matter movement and she also brought together Da Brat, MC Lyte, and Monie Love honoring them since they were not a part of the main stage.
