This enlightening book reframes the history of hip-hop--and this time, women
are given credit for all their trailblazing achievements that have left an
undeniable impact on music.

FIRST THINGS FIRST, hip-hop is not just the music, and women have played a big
role in shaping the way it looks today. FIRST THINGS FIRST takes readers on a
journey through some notable firsts by women in hip-hop history and their
importance. Factual firsts like Queen Latifah becoming the first rapper to get
a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, Lauryn Hill making history as the first
rapper to win the coveted Album of the Year Award at the GRAMMYs, April Walker
being the first woman to dominate in the hip-hop fashion game, and Da Brat
being the first solo woman rapper to have an album go platinum, and
metaphorical firsts like Missy Elliott being the first woman rapper to go to
the future. (Trust me, she really did.)

There are chapters on music legends like Nicki Minaj, Lil' Kim and Mary J.
Blige, tv and radio hosts like Big Lez and Angie Martinez, and so many more
ladies I would name but I don't want to spoil the book! There are games,
charts and some fire images, too.

Altogether, FIRST THINGS FIRST is a celebration of the achievements of women
in hip-hop who broke down barriers and broke the mold. So the next time
someone doesn't have their facts straight on the ladies in hip-hop, you can
hit them with "first things first"…
