Before 2007 is out, Eve, Missy Elliott, Foxy Brown,
Trina, Shawnna and Remy Ma should have new albums in stores,
setting the stage for a banner year in the world of female rap. As in,
more than two or three of the titles could finish in the top 100 of
Billboard's year -end Top R &B /Hip -Hop Albums chart. Female rap
is long- suffering and shows few, if any, signs of growth. In 2006,
only Remy Ma's "There's Something About Remy: Based on a True
Story" cracked the year -end top 100, just making the cut at No. 92.
Since Nielsen SoundScan began tracking sales in 1991, only 13
female rappers have appeared on the year-end chart out of a pool of
585 artists (see sidebar, below). # The genre's biggest stars all seem
to be winding down. Lil' Kim cracked the million -selling mark with
three straight albums, beginning with her 1996 debut, "Hard Core,"
which has sold 1.42 million copies. But her latest, 2005's "The Naked
Truth," has shifted a mere 388,000, a 73% decline. I! Brown, Elliott
and Eve have also seen their album sales slashed by more than half

When Enrique Iglesias hit No. 1 on Billboard's Hot Latin Songs chart last
month with "Do You Know? (The Ping Pong Song)," the artist scored his
17th chart- topping hit on that chart. Iglesias can now boast more No. i
hits on Hot Latin Songs than any other artist. Among those chart-top-
pers, the most successful was "Enamorado por Primera Vez," which de-
buted on the Feb. 1, 1997, chart and spent 12 weeks at No. 1. Each of Iglesias'

>LAURA MINOR
/songwriter
Singer Laura Minor got a bit physical recording
her new effort, "Let Evening Come." "I'd be rubbing my butt
on a wooden door going, `Mic this,' " she says.
The New York-based bard clearly isn't your typical artist. Her lat-
est album boasts collaborations from a host of respected indie artists,
and her lawyer, Craig Averill, also backs talents like Sparklehorse,
Fischerspooner, Clap Your Hands Say Yeah and the New York Dolls.
Minor was originally signed to roots music indie HighTone,
which released her debut, "Salesman's Girl," in 2002. Produced
by Cracker/Camper Van Beethoven's David Lowery, the set has
sold 1,600 copies in the United States, according to Nielsen
SoundScan, but was composed of songs Minor did not write.
"I was just some woman who had to do her job and sing these
songs and look a certain way," she says. "It was no fun."
Now self-releasing, Minor is more satisfied with her new blues -,
country- and folk -inflected tunes. She sought out production
assistance from an old school friend, Alap Momin, better -known
as Oktopus and one -half of alternative hip -hop outfit Dalek. Both
Momin and his partner Will Brooks (Dalek) were floored with
the demos they heard.
Brooks says, "Her voice, there's such a realness to it. For some-
body who didn't have that much experience at the time, felt I
there was a freshness and honesty to her songs ... Producing it,
at the core, it's pure hip -hop. We could do whatever we wanted
with it. But at the end of the day, it's country music."
