Command Your Timeline With Instagram-Worthy Rap Lyrics By Beyoncé, Lizzo, Cardi B & More
One of the most important nights in hip-hop culture, the 2019 BET Hip-Hop Awards are just around the corner. Celebrating the creme de la creme in rap music, this year we’re pleased to know women have been the ones dominating the charts and airwaves.
Commanding our timelines no less, lyrics from women like Cardi B – who leads this year’s nominations with an impressive 10 nods in categories like MVP of The Year and Bet Hip-Hop Video – have inarguably provided us with quality content for some of our baddest IG moments.
Ahead of the main event, which returns to the Cobb Energy Center in Atlanta this Saturday and premieres on Tuesday (Oct. 8), we pluck top-knotch Instagrammable lyrics from songs by every female nominee, including the likes of burgeoning newcomer Megan Thee Stallion, Beyoncé (The Carters) and Ari Lennox (Dreamville).
Peep the rundown, and slay.

He put in all that work, he wanna be the MVP
I told him ain't no taming me, I love my n*ggas equallyBeyoncé (The Carters) - Ape Sh*t
