Queen Latifah has never shied away from a battle.
She was 16 years old when she told Michael Kenneth Williams that she wanted to be a rapper. She jokes that the actor didn?t believe her, but Williams says that had more to do with his lack of faith in the industry than in his belief in Latifah.
In a time when female rappers were considered taboo, Williams said he couldn't have immagined Latifah would become so successful in the industry. He said quote Who makes it out of the ?hood and does that? But she proved me wrong.?
These days, the 45-year-old rapper-turned-actress-turned-mogul sits at the helm of a $100 million business, Flavor Unit Entertainment.
