2023 is a historic year for hip hop and its rising stars. With so many songs going viral on TikTok, it’s hard to tell precisely which rapper will be the next to dominate the rap game. However, for the first time, the odds favor the new, upcoming female rappers of 2023. Many female rappers are taking their place in the rap game and building a loyal fan base in record time. Of all the young talent in the game today, 10 new rappers stick out. Here are the best new rappers of 2023 that you need to know.
10. Bandmanrill
The New Jersey native has the creativity and delivery to shine! With underrated hits like “Mr. D.C.T.” and “Dam Son,” Bandmanrill can make waves in the music industry at this rate. His “Jiggy in Jersey” video already has over 3.5 million followers.
The drill music subgenre of rap is growing steadily as we speak, and Banmanrill has the potential to lead the way. Listen to Bandmanrill’s hit song and tell me what you think!
9. Rob49
With over a million streams on Soundcloud already, the New Orleans native has the sky as his limit. His hit single “Let Me Know” already has over 1.2 million streams.
His music encapsulates the grittiness of the streets, the struggle, and the grind. Another young talent, Peezy, also showcased his talent in the song.
Other rappers should prepare themselves when they feature him in their songs. Listen to “Let Me Know” and tell me what you think!
8. Lola Brooke
Ever wondered what a female version of pop smoke would sound like? Fellow Brooklyn native Lola Brooke is your answer.
Her deep-voiced delivery is a refreshing alternative to the oversaturated market of female rappers screaming and nagging in their songs. She hit single “So Disrespectful” has the visual vibes of a Kendrick video, coupled with the swag of a young 50 Cent.

7. Big Boss Vette
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. After countless artists like City Girls, Saweetie, Flo Milli, Cardi B, and many more, you would think the market would be tired of the same gimmick. They still want more, and Big Boss Vette fits into the niche.
Watch the video above if you want more loud and aggressive bars about fighting other women and sleeping with many men.
Her hit “Karma” has over a million views since its release five months ago. At this rate, the St. Louis native will land a much-awaited Nelly feature. Listen to “Karma” and see for yourself!
6. Big boogie
Big Boogie is for you if you love deep-voiced hood dudes with good flows. His style is rather adaptive, as the Memphis native can sound like NLE Choppa and Pooh Shiesty in the same song.
His hit single “Enough Talking” already has over 2 million views in just 2 months. He stood out with his relaxed delivery and fantastic lyrics, a refreshing alternative to all the aggressive and violent songs today.
If you don’t believe me, listen to “Enough Talking” and find out!
5. Enchanting
Trust me; she lives up to her rap name. Her hit “Love Shit” features an R&B vibe as the Texas rapper uses a melody to express herself.
Her refreshing mix of singing and rapping is well-received in an overly saturated market of loud and aggressive female rappers. She talks about relationships, heartbreak, and other relatable topics that make her easy to digest.
Keep up with the latest of the young B-more talent. Listen to “Love Shit” and thank me later!
4. Rican Da Menace
Chrisean Rock better watch out! Baltimore has a new talent for the screen. Despite being considered one of the new, up and coming rappers in 2023, some say she’s already made it.
Rican Da Menace already has a song with Moneybagg Yo, and the video averages 100K views per month. Her Baltimore aggression shows in her unapologetic rap approach.
Through strategic planning and features, the new talent has already made herself one of the best new rappers of 2023. Listen to “Dumb” and tell me I’m wrong!
3. Finesse2Tymes
With over a hundred million YouTube views in the past year alone, it’s safe to say that Finesse2tymes is a force to be reckoned with. Unlike many upcoming rappers in 2023, the Memphis native has already cemented his name in the rap game.
The new talent already has features from superstars like Gucci Mane, Lil Baby, and DaBaby.
He garnered 65 million YouTube views from one song, “Back End.” The song also received a massive boost from TikTok after becoming a viral sensation for months.
With a strong start and an even more robust social media presence, Finesse2tymes is easily one of the best new upcoming rappers in 2023. Listen to “Back End” if you think I’m lying!
2. Glorilla
Of all the new female rappers in 2023, Glorilla has to have the best name. Her “Tomorrow 2” song with Cardi B is pushing 150 million views on YouTube.
Her lyrics resonate with all the new “hot girl summer” people that are popping up now. Expect to hear her music in the club, or at a girls night pregame.
Her deeper voice stands out from her competition, as she manages to sound aggressive and masculine without yelling or screaming. Listen to “Tomorrow 2” to see what I mean!
1. Ice spice
With one of the most viral breakout videos ever, are you surprised? From the end of 2022 through the beginning of 2023, the chorus to “Munch” was on everyone’s mind.
With the help of TikTok, the Bronx native had one of the most meteoric rises to fame ever. With over 42 million views on YouTube, Spice arguably had the biggest breakout song since “Look at Me” by XXXTENTACION.
The orange-haired young talent is indisputably one of the best new female rappers of 2023. If you haven’t heard it already, listen to “Munch” and get back to me!
As you can see, the crown looks more like a tiara this year. This is the year for female rappers, with many of the best upcoming rappers being women in 2023. The male rappers still have the talent to contest, but the throne is unisex.
Do you think female rappers will dominate the game by 2024? Can Ice Spice make another banger like “Munch?” Will the male rappers fight to protect their spot on top?
