About
Chicago's Shawntae Harris-Dupart — first solo female rapper to go platinum, period. Jermaine Dupri-signed So So Def heavy hitter. 'Funkdafied' (1994) did exactly what the title says, and 'Anuthatantrum,' 'Unrestricted' kept the streak going through the late 90s. The post-music second act includes a long radio career, a recent very-public coming out and marriage. Foundational figure in 90s female rap and one of the rare So So Def signings whose stock has actually risen as the era's been re-evaluated.
