"Sherane a.k.a Master Splinter's Daughter" - Kendrick Lamar opens the album with the juxtaposition of good and evil, a theme that runs throughout. Here, in a look forward at the album narrative to follow, he's just a in-puppy-love Compton teenager trying to get some—until reality interrupts, in the form of two guys in black hoodies. The tinkling pianos and phasing snare drums, a blend of early-2000s Dr. Dre G-funk and Drake's drowsy, 40-helmed beats, are a good mission statement for the album's lush, expertly crafted production.

Queen Latifah - At a time when women weren't running the world, this Queen chanted "Ladies First" and has stayed true to what she believes.

Not to mention she has her own comestics line under the CoverGirl umbrella, dubbed the Queen Collection.(Photo: John Ricard / BET)
