You asked for it, so here it is. First things first. This list is flawed. I mean, every list is. I get pissed every time I pick up People Magazine's "50 Most Beautiful People" list and see some anti-cute chick like Kirsten Dunst as opposed to Nia Long.
Although I don't agree with The Game's standing, I think MTV did a good job with the "Hottest Rappers In The Game" list. But everybody keeps hating on them. Bottom line, you can't please everybody. THIS IS NOT MY BOMBARASS MOTHERSCUNTIN' CLOTT LIST!!!! As previously mentioned, I sent an email to over 100 (not all responded) industry colleagues and asked them to list the ten baddest industry chicks in their opinion. I then tabulated the votes and compiled the list.
SOHH On The Scene Model Sam Ed and his brother Young Hov analyzing the list
Now, not making the list doesn't mean you're not cute, or even gorgeous. I can certainly think of way more then 10 pretty industry girls. Dude, 63 different names were submitted at least once for the list. Some of my personal picks didn't even make it.
In some cases it may just be a matter of not enough people knowing who you are. It's somewhat of a popularity contest. You see, this industry is just like High School. My homegirl Janee said it best. For the most part, industry people get accepted based on their looks or the company they work for. Sad but true.
SOHH...without further ado, here's the list. I even had a few of the fellers write anonymous "love" notes and appreciation blurbs (in quotes) for some of the girls. Fortunately, we've snapped so many SOHH On The Scene photos, that we're able to offer you visuals for all but two of the girls listed. This list is in no particular order. Then again, lists usually got from the... to the ...So use your imagination.
Carolyn Concepcion (US Concepts): "CC is wifey material.
Great personality with the looks to match."
CC, Mark and Fred at Manor
Keshia Maldonado (5W PR): I've never met this young lady, but dudes keep asking me about her. Like, "yo, you know Keshia Maldonado?" Then they just give me the nod, like, "yo, shorty is bad."
Jessica Taylor (Indie Publicist): Where the hell is Jessica anyway? I haven't seen her on the scene much lately. The guys must miss her, cause she kept popping up on their lists.
Cara (Atlantic Records): "I've had many conversations
discussing...ehhhh, how...nice Cara is."
Cara and Erik Parker (SOHH)
Chyna (Blackplanet.com): "I'm not sure what her job is over at BP.
Shit! I'm not even sure the site still exists. But if she's ever out of a job,
I'll always have a 'position' for her."
Chyna (R) with friend
Rachelle Gauthier (Rides Magazine): "Man, the lips!
She just got engaged. Somebody's a lucky bastard!"
Rachelle (R) and friend
Sarah Alminawi (Def Jam Records):
"What can't be said about Sarah Almiwani? Perhaps it's her creamy olive skin and long curly fry hair that has brought all the boys to the yard. Kelis, eat your heart out.
Sarah and Brian Miller (XXL Magazine)
Latrice Burnette (Atlantic Records): Even this blog's hating ass
users had the hots for Latrice. She gon kill me for this though.
Latrice
Christina Rice (Akademiks): "I'm sure the other girls on the lists are bad.
But Christina should be number one. I don't know her measurements.
But she 'bodies' the competition. Pun intended!"
Christina and Sam Ed at Akademiks Showroom
Mariel Concepcion (Billboard): "Hey, Carl! Who is shorty with
the curly hair you were just talking to?" Do you have any idea how many times
I've heard that? Guess what, fellers? She even has a twin.
Maciel (L), Sam Ed, Mariel (R) and Mark
Now if you excuse me, I've have to go in hiding. Hopefully there are some dark skin girls there.

Hey "Realspit" you really are a Class A Fag. If its one thing i hate most... it's a pussy blogger who grows cyber ball when they get on a computer. You're either a teenage loser or a 26 year old Virgin. Get some ass playboy and stop givin it... you might feel better about your self, if not walk in front of a train.

I'm really starting to get tired of hitting these blogs and finding really racists comments from people who hide behind a key board. Shit, apparently you consider yourself a nigga because you freqent our sites and lust after are women. Bottom line your a "Bitch".
Moving on! Dawg, I know you said your list is not in any particular order, but I don't see how you could go wrong by reversing the list. Pure wifey material from the bottom up. Peace! That is to everyone except "You really spit on me".

Maybe thats why the industry is so wack now talent wise. They only hiring the fine women that dont even know what HipHop is or how to market a talented artist. They just have to look good and have a degree. This is exactly what goes on in the corporate world as well. But the ladies still look sexy though!!!

But that being said....Sarah Alminawi.............DAMN....Yeah, I would jump into the industry JUST TO mess with that girl. Dat right there is the meaning of fine, dime, or whatever the fuck else you wanna say. In conclusion, she bomb.

But, I'm not knocking what they do. I could be 100% WRONG. Seriously, what in the world do these GIRLS know about Hip Hop? Seriously.
