All Hail the Queen is the debut album by hip hop artist Queen Latifah, released on November 7, 1989, on Tommy Boy Records. The album was unusually successful for a hip hop record at the time, buoyed by the single "Wrath of My Madness", and was certified gold in July of 1990. The feminist anthem "Ladies First" (with Monie Love) remains one of Latifah's signature songs.
