NEW YORK (AP) — Queen Lati-
fah started rapping when she was 17.
Not immodestly. All Hail the Queen
was the title of
her debut al
bum, released
in 1989.
Her mother
thought her
stage name was
pretentious and
said, "Give me
a break." But
Latifah, now 28,
recalls, "I stuck
to my guns and
it proved to be good."
The Grammy-winning rapper,
who was born Dana Owens, said she
picked Latifah from a book of Muslim
names when she was 8. She was visit
ing relatives in Newark, N.J., and the
book belonged to a cousin. "It meant
delicate and sensitive. So I decided
that would be my nickname."
When music caught her interest,
she started making demos with the
help of friends she met in the rap in
dustry and finally scored with
"Princess of the Posse," which was
shown on "Yo! MTV Raps" and led
to a contract with Tommy Boy
Records. She won a Grammy for best
rap solo performance in the song
"U.N.I.T.Y." in 1995.
Rapping hasn't been her only gig.
She starred in "Living Single," a sitcom
that ran for five seasons on the Fox net
work, and has starred in several films
including Set It Off and Sphere, with
Sharon Stone and Dustin Hoffman.
Set It Off came after a difficult peri
od for Latifah. She was coping with
the death of her brother, a car-jacking
in which a friend was wounded, and
her arrest during a traffic stop for gun
and marijuana possession.
Her newest project. Order in the
Court, is an album on her own label.
Flavor Unit, distributed by Motown.
She prefers the melodic cuts to the
ones where phrases are delivered
rapid-fire.
Listeners understand most of the
quick raps right away, she says. "But
everybody has to rewind on some of
them. The clue to rap is you got to play
it again and again, certain things you
weren't sure you heard right."
Although Order in the Court isn't a
"message-y" album — "it's about
making good, individual music, mu
sic that's a little different from every
one else out there" — several tracks
do have a message.
She said "What You Gonna Do" is
a song that means "at the end of the
day, no matter what goes on ... all you
have to do is pray on it. Find the light
of God inside of you, because it is there.
"1 am Christian,"
Latifah, who de
scribes herself as
more spiritual
than religious,
said. "I don't go to
church every Sun
day. I do pray on a
daily basis. I have
cool conversations
with God and my
ancestors who are
up in heaven."

stance, she said, "What You Gonna
Do" is not just for women. "A positive
attitude is very important. It lets you
know good thi ngs are possible. If you
don't have a positive attitude, you get
jaded on life, not caring about yourself
