Most K-pop groups have specific positions assigned to their members, such as vocalist, rapper, dancer, leader, and visual, among others. These positions are assigned based on each member's individual strengths and talents, though the idols are not always given a chance to demonstrate their other abilities. However, there are some all-around idols who can fill any position, regardless of their designated role. Here we will look at some female rappers from the K-pop industry that can also pass as vocalists.
