MC Lyte paced her rap lyrics. She didn't rush or speed through the rap. You were able to follow her and the melody. Her timing and speech clarity were everything. We got the message. It wasn't just about the beat.

"I Still Don't Think That's An Excuse To Say Nothing..." THAT PART! 💥

Years ago, I met her at a club. I was afraid to bother her by invading her space with my excitement. Her PR person saw me, called me over, and asked "would you like to meet MCLYTE" I almost fainted. On everything, She, MCLYTE, is one of the kindest people I have ever met. You can feel her positive energy. ❤❤❤

I am proud of her because she represents my generation to the fullest . We didn't play with this music because it was our place of expression to be taken seriously.
