Really, BET? We’re going to go out on a limb and say Nicki Minaj will win the 2011 Best Female Hip-Hop Artist award by a landslide. Let’s look at her "stiff" competition shall we? When was the last time you heard someone say, “That new Angel Lola Love album is fire?” Don’t worry, we’ll wait. Maybe it’s because the video vixen-turned-rapper hasn’t even released an official single yet— let alone an album. Have we mentioned that people don't consider her an MC? Interestingly, Trina who released her fifth studio album, Amazin', in 2010 (which debuted at no. 13 on the Billboard 200, was snubbed in favor of Master P’s daughter Cymphonique. No Diamond Princess? No Pay Pal record-breaking Lil' Kim? Fuck Outta Here! We understand it's slim pickings for female spitters nowadays, but why not just kill the category? Only four femcees were not nominated instead of five like all other categories. Spoiler Alert: And the award goes to…Nicki Minaj
