MC Lyte 1st Interview at Age 19 Rare

[@MastersGraduate2023]

I love Lyte's tomboy persona & she wasn't all about herself. Very intellegent.

[@YeekTV_Atlanta]

Angel Face Yesssss I fucking love her

[@Ru0000]

Even at 19 she was mature beyond her years.

[@SlickRick4EVER]

That's because as generations pass, maturity dilutes. In 40 years, being 19 is equal to today's 4 years old. That's how fucked up this generation's going to get...

[@raelockletree3858]

This is how a woman carries herself

[@michellej4289]

Yes!

[@michellej4289]

Extremely mature and confident

[@neocush1]

Mc Lyte alwayz had a great personality.

[@davidrileynyc5702]

Yep, her first album was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 to death.

[@davidrileynyc5702]

Btw, like mc lyte, I too am from Brooklyn

[@BigDee0903]

Lyte always reminded me of one of the homegirls on the block....she always seem so approachable.

[@miystiqueskillz2233]

She is very approachable...i met her in 92

[@ishwarganpat904]

Well MC has a distinguished voice. No one can impersonate her. Her voice can never be impersonated. She's just cool

[@michellej4289]

Yes, very distinct voice...

[@DavidRichardson95]

Lyte's career is nothing short of inspiring. From a rap pioneer to now a voice over for _all_ the award shows year round. She looks and sounds the same all these years later.

[@michaelburns6427]

True Pioneer ☝

[@coreyhendricks9490]

MC Lyte is one of the greatest female mc's ever to do it

[@jasonito23]

She is the greatest female hip hop artist. Lauryn Hill could've been but doesn't really have a solo catalogue like MC Lyte. Nikki Minaj, Lil Kim etc. all hopped on the sex bandwagon so I can't count them.

[@Havencheese]

I love this woman. What a legend.

[@ditc2103]

She was fine back then and still is

[@knerds123]

I like her voice. it always sounds like she has a cold. haha its so cute haha.

Lyte as a Rock!!! Mc Lyte was Boss!!

[@michellej4289]

She has always been well spoken...and appearance of confidence.

[@popconepop2357]

really rare interview its really hard too find vintage rare vintage interviews back from the 80s and 90s on the internet even some oldie rap songs are hard too find on youtube and the internet

[@vaehfromroots]

She’s so sweet and wholesome and outgoing I love her

[@Sheraytv]

Yes she is, I met her in person in 2012 when she came to dc the week of Martin Luther King Jr holiday the same time around my 16th birthday that year. She was djing there as well and I was so nervous and shy at the same time lol right where I was standing directly in front of her near the stage and I just totally almost forgot where I was lol I was too nervous to ask her for a picture lol but either way she was cool and super nice to me as well

[@majik31401]

HER VOICE AND APPEARANCE IS AROUSING

MC Lyte "Eyes On This" Classic Album, In My Opinion, It's Her Best Ever.

[@fortchristopher7318]

Yes Totally her Best Album from Begging to End!!!!!

[@tye958]

MC Lyte has always been so 😎... May she continue to prosper for many years to come 🙋🏽

[@jeanetteterry9386]

May our heavenly Father continue to bless and protect MC Lyte. Please bless and protect DJ K-Rock! You are my favorite female rap star! You killed it on Brandy's remix I Wanna Be Down. Every record you spit on turns to gold. You are untouchable!

[@graceandmarvellouswonders6249]

Very lovely memory down memory lane always enjoyed her style, music and the way she conducted herself

[@MrJeromeRN]

My favorite rapper.

[@Dav_v_oochi71]

LYTE is a beauty queen.

[@prof3ssor178]

The first lady of Rap! Rewind that 20x

[@jus3278]

Lyte is still a crush all these years later

[@harlemcasino]

Definitely rare but not 1st interview. I'm a huge Mc Lyte and Rap City fan. Classic

[@urbanflavorz]

+harlemcasino when did u see her interviewed before this?

[@harlemcasino]

+urbanflavorz I can recall a interview on Yo MTV Raps. I remember her words were "My name is Mc Lyte and I'm 17" Wish I had it.

[@urbanflavorz]

I doubt it, that would have been 1987, MTV Raps didn't premier until late 1988 and Rap City premiered before YO Mtv raps

[@urbanflavorz]

+harlemcasino in any case you got a good memory lol

[@FullForceTV]

Rap City was AFTER Yo MTV Raps. BET only showed rap videos occasionally. They'd show a few on Video Soul and Video Vibrations, with the occasional Rap Week, but Rap City was made after Yo MTV Raps blew up.

[@MargauxMachek]

Used to love Rap City!

[@ivanezell1538]

I never missed an episode of Rap city or Yo MTV raps during THIS era

[@garionbush5906]

I'm a proud MC Lyte stan

[@SalMightyOne]

She aged so very well, just search for videos from the last few years.

[@YeekTV_Atlanta]

That's my babyyyyyy right there! I love you MC Lyte...Especially the young 80's 90's version

[@mamadouyoussouphdiallo3732]

When it comes to dignity she's the perfect one

[@GearsinMotionGraphics]

Much Respect!.... She always had a respectable style about her Image

[@AnthonyMckinney-yu4lk]

She is still pretty

[@dscola31]

gorgeous!

[@behnzofreestylekang8581]

1 of the best female rappers

[@blackcutty8549]

At the Age of 52 and from Flatbush Since she was in Westinghouse high school I always wanted to run into her and express my feelings even when I was working in industry always love ❤️ her to the heat

[@GearsinMotionGraphics]

One of the first how ever did it!, when it came to a respectable image.

[@factnofiction1142]

Her voice sounds like '''stereo'' surround sound

[@frostest1622]

Deception

[@freddiereeves1711]

That awkward host was painful to watch. Who cleared those questions? Bravo Lyte! The topic of discussion was about you and that's all the credit I can attribute to this segment.

[@YeekTV_Atlanta]

Freddie Reeves Yes he is extra LAME!!!!!!

[@eugenemckinney8736]

Wow didn't know Chris Thomas acted like that

[@jason4353]

Chris Thomas the Mayor of Rap City

[@NewarkBrickCity1970]

Pure raw Brooklyn there!

[@seanberry1969]

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@TheCodedtestament]

The true definition of a classy female rapper. Never took her clothes off nor rap about her ass or even had to show it to sell records.

[@TalibMoore-er2bc]

I love mc lyte past and present 💝

[@ericdaniel2638]

LYTE thee mc😊❤

[@daniettejones6704]

I remember when she got married and lost one of her dancers on top of the roof top. I read about in word up magazine.

[@kingstongreen1658]

Yes she was

[@panama8009]

She from Brooklyn, we speak very clear cut Brooklynese English...lol

[@TheOpinionater]

There's a lot today could learn from then.

[@seancuebas2332]

THE MAYOR!!!

[@bingrim]

What a horrible interview. Glad Prince Daijour and Joe Cleezey took over. I know this cat is a respected comedian and he was on P.E.' s Baseheads video but he was trash right here.

[@bettinaevans6467]

I remember that

[@dtbredhalf5823]

Dam!.. I forgot all about the Mayor....Chris Thomas!... fucking classic

The Lyte is a LIBRA! YESSSSSSS

Prettiest Eyes..

[@AkachiIsGod]

C'mon Mayor, kinda questions were those? Lyte was so mature.

[@danepowell7860]

i wonder if it restricts her breathing

[@sandrasmith3906]

lyte the shit

[@Thomopolis2019]

How do they know this is her “ first interview “? That’s subjective! She says she started rapping @ 13, sooooo no one interview her in that 6 years? Additionally he said she is respected in her rap career, haven’t seen many respected rappers get their first interview before being respected! 🤷🏾‍♂️

[@chriscurtis8344]

Here Afrocentric mindset has a lot to do with her comfort in her own look . Notice that she didn’t have the face lifts and cosmetic surgery. A beautiful girl and a now beautiful woman.

[@ruthlessreptiles]

She got a huge nose job now no offence just saying

[@lioness-sx6fr]

No Roxeanne Shante is the 1st female rapper respectively Both my idols in female rap!

[@OliviaSmith-hx8hv]

Say it again! Sha-Roc was with The Funky Four +1 More. Did not make a solo record before Roxanne Shanté!!!
