Queen Latifah

The name Latifah means delicate and sensitive in Arabic, and Dana Owens always thought of herself as having a soft side that the world overlooked. She chose Queen Latifah as her stage name when she earned her first record contract in 1988. Since then, Queen Latifah has earned a place in rap history as one of the first female MCs. With her music, she inspires young women to be bold, active, and proud.
