    First?

    I comment MC Lyte for here efforts. Tthe Grammy’s are wack anyway, but that aside, each category has about 5 nominees. Can you name 5 worthy female rappers out there right now? And don’t say any “Miss Rap Supreme” people.

  3. Aunt Viv

    *her efforts*

    I ♥ MC Lyte!

  5. glok9n

    I ALWAYZ FELT AND STILL DO THINK MC LYTE IS THE BADDEST BYTCH TO EVER GRIP A MIKE……I PUT THAT ON MY DEAD DOG SCRAPz!

  6. I'm Just Me

    I see she didn’t speak on the Remy Ma issue. I guess she feels her sentence was deserved. I feel what she is doing though. I hope ths will encourage the females Emcees out there to step their game up. I had never noticed the sexism in the legal system regarding male and female hip hop artists but she definitely pulled my coattails to that. I didn’t even realize MC Lyte was really doing anything in or around hip hop so I am very excited to hear about this! Kudos to her.

    I STILL PUMP HER ***** !

  8. Aunt Viv

    Yeah, Lyte was da truth. “Lyte as a Rock” and “Cram to Understand” were my jawns!

  9. What the...

    wow bossip…way to kill two birds * dead *

    Lyte is dope but my favs have been Lauryn and Chi-Roc (found in my cousin’s old school playlist). on that note, do women rappers need more personality? or less prison swag?

  10. kaly

    She’s so hot and pretty. Seems she is also on interracial dating service b l ac kc en t u r y.c om. I saw some pics looks like her very much at that club. I will double check it :)

  11. MDS

  12. Whateva

    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  13. I'm Just Me

    Why couldn’t you use the other pic that is on lives***** here. Bossip is disrespect ful.

    I am also sad that this thread only has 13 post including me twice while 50cent and his madness have like 100 and change. People we need to get with the positivity.

  14. BossipKeep*****Going

    there r so many wack ***** female rappers its pathethic. still dnt see how missy collect grammys damn near everytime she gets nominated. as far as female rappers are concerned. Lauryn HIll is a beast i still dnt see no one *****ing with her past present or future. Mc Lyte is my 2nd pick. other than that, i can sit here and honestly say i wouldnt purchase no female rapper cd if somebody paid me.

  15. lil latte

  17. Brooklyn, Stand UP!

    I totally agree with her… They show no love to female artists.

  18. Brooklyn, Stand UP!

    LOL @ Chris Rock

  20. Ms Sharmaine

    Mc Lyte has kept it real for over twenty years if she is gay who cares. The bottom line is she just don’t talk she puts ***** in motion.

  21. ThatBKChick

    First off Bossip, I don’t know where you get off *****uming MC Lyte is Gay? For one, she is a honorary Soror of my organization, and I will not stand for such disrespect. Secondly, why is it when there is a strong female presence that will not relent to male domination (especially the rap game) does she has to be Gay or something?

    Anywho….I love me some MC Lyte and I am proud of the fact that yes she is trying to hold it down as far as leadership in this wack ***** female rap game. Has anyone ever thought that Lyte pushing the fact that Females should had their own category is a way to inspire females to come harder and stop with their foolywag antics and ish?

    I cannot wait for Lyte to come back and show these wack***** wanna be females how is should be done! Much Love to MC Lyte…”KICK THIS ONE FOR BROOKLYN”–STAND UP BK THE LAND WHERE THE BEST RAPPERS HAIL FROM!

  22. reddnwood

    Yo I’m down with Lyte for trying 2 help the sista rappers out but I think she’s wrong for calling out TI & his situation like that. That’s not cool.


  23. Hey glok9n!

    I KNOW you gots to remember “Hot damn hoe, STFU! Lol!! Lyte did Roxanne Shante sooo bad, the trick disappeared.

    Lyte was shyt back in the day! And she used to KILL me coming thru in that candy apple red Benz!

  24. glok9n

    1TRUDIVA! HEY SISTA! ITZ GONNA BE SOME *****….. SHE SENT ROXANNE AZZ INTO RETIREMENT AND REMEMBER ANTONETTE SHE NEVER CAME BACK AFTER THEY BATTLED….MC LYTE IS STILL SOLID AS A ROCK! IM LISTEN TO CHA CHA CHA!

  25. innocent bystander

    I have always LOVEDDD MC LYTE. Even used to have 3 cuts in my eyebrows. She will always be the hottest female MC no doubt. DAMN I wish she would just come and to show these wanna be’s how it’s SUPPOSED to be done.

  26. innocent bystander

    @ aunt viv

    it’s commend

  27. HereIambaby

    Love her smile and her confidence. She always has a positive attitude and that is what makes her outstanding. Everytime I signed in the site (Bl ackC en tur y dotcom) and some men were talking about her and said she is attractive.

  28. THE ORIGINAL PIMP DADDY

    MC LYTE WAS TIGHT BUT YALL YUNGINS NEED TO LOOK UP SHA ROCK OF THE FUNKY4 EMCEES SHE IS THE QUEEN TO THE GAME.MISSY IS GARBAGE,SALT AND PEPA WAS BANGIN,LADY OF RAGE WAS THE BOMB,TRINA SUCKS,FOXY WHAT THE ***** SHE MADE THATS RELEVANT?LIL KIM KEEPS IT REAL AND ***** THE REST.

  29. Just for fun

    Lyte reminds me of Salt that she looks good for her age and isnt trying to hang on to her glory days. Very nice. Pepa, Kim take note

  30. Nana

    I do commend MC Lyte on her efforts. What she is saying about them girls doing time is true. Kim lied and Foxy hit someone, but T.I. walking around with guns and his ***** is home layed up with Tiny midget mouse *****.

    The grammys are whack. The winner’s are always Beyonce, Alicia Keys, Mary J. Blige & Arrogant ***** Kanye West. I mean don’t get me wrong all of them have beautiful material but their ***** isn’t worth Grammy’s all the damn time. To me other people have valid work and no one takes notice. Honorable mention to Syleena Johnson that sister can sing her ***** of and her 3rd album was FIRE!! As far as female rappers go, it doesn’t have to be someone in the lime lite. The grammy’s are so supposed to be about the depth of your work, not the depth of your record company pockets.


  31. L-Y-T-E..DO IT MAMI..


  32. @thatbkchic

  33. HoneyBrown

  34. bcan
