    That key that she wears around her neck is the key to her brother Lancelot’s motorcycle that she bought for him. He died in an accident on it and she wears it as a reminder of him.

    Man ya’ll just don’t KNOW.
    Queen Latifah was one of the premiere female HIp-Hop innovators.
    On top of which, an accomplished career as an actress with true acting ability.
    A Long time commercial star, and official face of CoverGirl, and her own cosmetics line.
    A Talk show host...
    And to top it all off she has a voice, and she has recorded her own Jazz albums.
    Check out her movie “Last Holiday.”
    It’s a comedy, and a good one.

    The 1st guy in the video is in Naughty by Nature. They all worked together. Treach also in the group was married to Pep in Salt-n-Pepa. Queen was the star of Living Single. Her real mother made guest appearances as her mom on the show (RIP). Queen was on an episode of Fresh Prince of Bel Air (very funny). Her/Yoyo/McLyte rapped on Brandys mix of I Wanna Be Down back in the day. Her brother was a police officer (RIP) but was killed in a motorcycle accident I believe. She's a good daughter & took care of her mom giving her the best esp. during her illness. She looks just like her dad. Look up Yo-yo (female rapper). She also did The Bonnie & Clyde Theme with Ice Cube.

      Yes. Her brother did die in a motorcycle accident. I believe he was an East Orange police officer. I remember back in '91 or '92 a gold or bronze colored hearse( I think🤔) , many police cars and other vehicles lined up (the day of the funeral) going down an East Orange street. The key around her neck is from her brother (his motorcycle).

My dad is the reason I know and love most of the old school r&b and rap music from the generations before me and during the age I wasn't REALLY able to process it lol. God bless that man. BUT you will find so much more meaning and emotion behind the music written before this day and age. The INDUSTRY was and STILL is the industry so I won't speak on the dark side of it. But there's so much love and memories threaded throughout the music. It's TRULY something else..

    Queen Latifah's real name is Dana Owens. Her 2019 jazz inspired album was released under her real name. Please react to "I Put a Spell on You" from that album to hear something really different from her.

    Queen Latifah is a goddess. I came of age in the 80s and she was the first female rapper I’d heard - blew my mind & what an inspiration. Every female rapper to follow owes her a tremendous debt of gratitude. I really enjoy her & Monie Love’s “Ladies First” AND she can sing as well as act & rap (her rendition of “I Know Where I’ve Been” from Hairspray is wonderful.) All Hail the Queen!!!!
