Roxanne Shante lyrically killing brothers on this one... she told KRS1 that his name sounded like a whack radio station. Back in the day we would have said She cut his head off...Battles with words and rhyming skills...what happened???

"and MC Scott La Rock you should be ashamed/ cuz when T La Rock said 'It's Yours' he didn't mean his name". Sadly this song came out just after Scott was murdered

She snapped on KRS1 and BDP lmao and the finishing blow was exquisite. And Roxanne Shante IS ONLY good for steady serving!!!

[@maliika1walker639]

Roxanne Shanté is one of my all time favorites. But MC Lyte will always be my favorite female MC. Lauryn Hill also because I have yet to her any rapper freestyle like she did live when she was with the Fugees.

[@lifeismusikmusikislife4684]

This sh*t was fire in the mid 80's. You wasn't into hip hop if you wasn't bumpin Shante'.

[@clarissadelprat6926]

Remember back in the days 85 'Dissin' another DJ was part of the deal to KEEP the ' Mc's'Crown', don't forget that LIve on stage many male MC's were 'Degrading' women in their lyrics & every MC had to 'Retaliate' in anyway shape or ORDER to maintain the 'STREET CRED'! Roxanne actually did it in an soft way in regards to KRS1 & BDP, Roxanne mashed up 'Brixton Academy'in London' & put all the men MC's including Big Daddy Kane under manners, she 'Redeemed' all women MC's & women in general's PRIDE that night by showing them that women have the 'GIFT' of lyrical 'NINJA style too.She's my inspiration still now when I need to have that 'GIRL POWER!

[@redjam40]

Everything that is good about HipHop Music is in this record. The Beat is brilliant. It really is. And the Rapping by Roxanne Shante is out of this world. This has to be in the best 50 HipHop tracks ever made. This is the track that truly made Roxanne Shante into Legendary status within HipHop music. What a record

[@AstralienX]

I fcn loved this era, battling with bdp, her voice is so dope, the samples, get tears in my eyes. I love this girl.

[@mastervader218]

I never forget how this was the first time I was introduced to beatmixing and how Belmaati blended them all in this non stopping flow: LL, P.E. Cash Money & Marvelous, Biz Markie, B D Kane etc. and how i was STUNNED from both how he scratched the numbers nicely together - and of course from the cutting on the records them selves. Seriously, that was like a spiritual experience, and I have been scratching and mixing ever since. (For real since '92 when I finally had both two 1200/1210 decks.)
