Queen Latifah is an American rapper, jazz/blues singer, and actress. Born Dana Owens, she has released seven studio albums, six of which were hip hop-influenced albums and two that were all-singing jazz-influenced albums. She has released a total of twenty-three singles as well. She has been given the title the "Queen of Jazz Rap".
Latifah released two albums, All Hail the Queen and Nature of a Sista, before breaking through with her 1993 album Black Reign. Black Reign received a gold certification in the United States, reaching number 60 on the Billboard 200 albums chart, and number 15 on the US R&B chart. The album has sold 491,000 copies in the United States. After a five-year hiatus, she released Order in the Court on June 16, 1998. The album was a disappointment, selling only 100,000 copies in the United States. After, Latifah released a greatest hits compilation entitled She's the Queen: A Collection of Hits.
Latifah once again found success in 2004 with her fifth studio album, The Dana Owens Album. The album was a success, charting at number 16 on the Billboard 200 albums chart. In 2007, Latifah released her sixth studio album, Trav'lin' Light through Flavor Unit/Verve Records. In 2009, Latifah released her seventh album, Persona through Flavor Unit/Universal Records.
