VH1's Hip Hop Honors celebrated a handful of the most influential women rappers who've graced the mic including Queen Latifah, Missy Elliott, Salt 'n Pepa, and Lil Kim. The night was a joyous celebration of Black women's artistry.

Each woman received a tribute.

And though all of the performances were fantastic, some of the biggest responses came for Lil Kim's salute.

Dej Loaf and Lil Mama performed "Crush on You" in colorful wigs and costumes. But the party really started when Teyana Taylor came out to perform "No Time" in the classic leopard print bikini from the "Hardcore" era poster. She came out again for Kim's verse on "All About the Benjamins."
In case you need a refresher, here's Kim.
