After 30+ Years in the Game, We’re Giving MC Lyte Her Flowers

Female rap pioneer MC Lyte joins us in-studio for the ultimate celebration of her career and contributions to entertainment. The icon reflects on the early beginnings of her journey and finding inspiration from fellow MCs like Salt-N-Pepa. She also gives us the scoop on her new show, “Partners In Rhyme”- a sitcom that gives a hilarious view of the record industry through the lens of rap legend Lana Crawford, played by MC Lyte. And, we have surprise for MC Lyte to commemorate her efforts to provide students with scholarships through the Hip Hop Sisters Foundation.

[@itstheberrys6181]

A legend that completed a career w/her clothes on, rapped several songs w/o profanity, still looks natural in her God given created body & is past due for so much. Thank u queen for everything! 🙌🏾🎶

[@mrs.h.2597]

Mc Lyte is the best female rapper to ever come out! Always had major respect for her and the way she carried herself! she deserves all the flowers!!!

[@yep2088]

Indeed she does, she did not have to sex her way or degrade herself through the industry to be recognized and respected. These so-called females that they want us to believe are modern-day rappers need to take note!

I have loved the Lyte since she came on the scene. I went to see her in concert in 2011, and it was bananas. She deserves to have gotten her flowers a long time ago! So many female rappers have gotten recognition who she paved the way for. Thank you Tamron for acknowledging Lyte! She’s such an Icon and absolutely legendary! I absolutely love all of her music! She still looks great!
