Salt-N-Pepa (aka Supernature)

Salt-N-Pepa (aka Supernature) Theirs was the first big-time female rap duo to also incorporate a female DJ in the group. Salt, Pepa, and DJ Spinderella (and former DJ Pamela Green) surfaced with their pro-feministic anthems that set the bar for all female rappers that came after them. They exploded with hit singles like "Expression," "Shoop," "Push It," (one of the first rap songs to receive a GRAMMY nomination), and the controversial "Let's Talk About Sex" remake. All these songs aided in the crossover of hip-hop into the mainstream. Although they were blessed with chart-topping records and GRAMMY presence, their greatest accomplishment was opening the door for women rappers around the world. With that strength and with five strong albums, they are definitely hip-hop hall of famers and icons in the music business.
