We interviewed #MCLyte this morning during #SigmaGammoRho's Centennial celebration in #Indianapolis, #Indiana!! Watch ‪@DABRATTV‬ rap some of #MCLyte's lyrics live on the air!!!! 🔥🔥🔥

[@tabithasamuels2148]

Brat did a great job paying homage to one of the greatest female rappers to ever grace the stage and microphone 🎤 👏🏾 🙌

Wow! I loved seeing Brat rap MC Lyte lyrics. She is real fan. Black women supporting other Black women. Love it!

[@amazingautumn12]

What about OTHER women admiring the same artists? The fans come in different colors and ages. This divide is DESPICABLE, especially when it comes to music/art

[@te3616]

When BET does MC Lytes lifetime achievement award, they better call Brat for the tribute @BET

This gave me chills! As a black female in a world that goes out of it’s way to makes us out to be villains seeing black females give each other their flowers makes my heart happy in a way I’ll never fully be able to verbalize ❤️❤️

Going on a rant. But I really hate how they say “black men” not in our kids life. In and out of jail and all we know is drugs and crime. I once was a child but grew to a man. How can a tree 🌲 grow if it never went threw darkness to reach the light… think about it

[@anniem.670]

Beautifully said sis, I agree.

[@davidatkinson8515]

That Self Destruction single was the best album made by all the rappers who were trying to end the violence on violence with our brothers and sisters. MC Lyte's rap on that album was off the chain.

[@JSmith-ml1bk]

Yes she did her thing

[@davidatkinson8515]

I think that's a rap that these young people of this generation should listen to. I don't know if it'll change their attitudes but it would be worth a try. Only they can decide to make a change and build up their community. It's my belief that you tear down your community when you steal from your own community, fight amongst each other in your own community, and kill each other in your own community. The Self Destruction album came out in the late 80s. I was close to getting out of high school, but it can be a catalyst for change in 2022.
