Queen Latifah Unauthorized

One of the most recognizable women in hip-hop and arguably the first feminist MC, Queen Latifah has built an entertainment empire based on the positive, conscious principles she has put forth from the beginning. After scoring some major hits as a rapper, she went on to begin her own management company, Flavor Unit Entertainment, and make waves on screens big and small. She has worked alongside Denzel Washington, Steve Martin, Martin Scorsese, Danny Devito, Ice Cube, Will Smith, and LL Cool J, starring in such big-budget projects such as TAXI and BEAUTY SHOP. The reigning queen of hip-hop has faced much adversity in her life, emerging from the projects of New Jersey and facing the death of a beloved brother. She has navigated everything with grace and strength, however, which becomes clear in this illuminating, inspiring documentary, which shows Latifah always rising to the next level armed with her apparently bottomless supplies of talent.
