Diggin' In The Digits

On Ep.101 of DITD: One of the pioneers for all women in Hip-Hop, with a career that should've been much more but despite lack of mainstream success, birthed tons of artistic children. A retrospective on Queen MC Lyte.

Show Notes

MC Lyte is undeniably one of the most influential artists in Hip-Hop history. Your favourite female's favourite female. From Ms Lauryn Hill to Missy, to Kim. MC Lyte dabbled in many subjects and explored them with textbook confidence, an unmistakable voice and a matter-of-fact attitude. It's easy to say that her steadfast ways jeopardised her career in a changing Hip-Hop landscape but before she got lost in the business of it all, she already carved out a legendary catalogue that birthed artistic children in record time.
