20th Century Masters - The Millenium Collection: The Best Of Queen Latifah
About This Album
With her success on stage, screen, and every place in between, it was only a matter of time before the powers that be revisited and celebrated the roots of Queen Latifah. This ten-song compilation features the first queen of hip-hop where's she at her best and at home: in the recording studio. Thankfully trimming away the fat from 2002's nearly definitive She's a Queen, 20th Century Masters represents most of her well-known songs in fine sequence and form. However, the most inexplicable omission is the song that embedded her in the collective consciousness of the hip-hop nation in the first place -- "Ladies First" is nowhere to be found, and keeps this from being a proper greatest-hits compilation. Nevertheless, it's still a nice if incomplete celebration of a landmark artist who will go down in history as one of the most important female artists in the male-dominated world of hip-hop. ~ Rob Theakston, All Music Guide
