Lyte as a Rock was the second single? And when was 10% Dis published? I'm a bit confused because I always read that I cram to understand You was the first single and 10% Dis the second (even Shut The Eff Up is the B-side of Lyte as a Rock, which is always considered Lyte's second Dis track)
@@kdgamhc7475 paper thin was the 1st single from this album then came lyte as a rock...cram may have been on the b side of paper thin n 10% on the b side of LAAR
Imma be real honest, I didn’t know this major classic had a video! She should never ever be downplayed! She’s in my top 10 and will stay there! Peace! #vote!!!!’n
She was great no doubt I wouldn't place her as my goat.... I would probably go Roxanne shante, Mia x, queen Latifah, lil Kim, and Mc lyte...... first four can't totally decide on the order other female mcs maybe didn't have enough work material ect like Antoinette, amil, Charlie Baltimore and Ms Melody
I never found her beautiful, but I was attracted to how she carry herself and spit.I was to busy wanting to bang Sheryl and Sandy(Salt n Peppa)Short and thick with light skin.
Funny how kids now think Nicki Minaj and Cardi are a thing .... that’s just that they nothing compared to this woman and women rappers of the late 80’s
Nobody THINKS Nicki & Cardi are a thing…. They are a thing. & you must not know bout nicki & how lyrical she is… ur krazy and just hating. MC Lyte my favorite tho y’all old heads just lame and biased
"This is the way it is, don't ever forget Hear the rhyme by someone else and you know they bit All in the way, just little obstacles Chew 'em up, spit em out, just like popsicles" she snapped
Wow. Still haters out there! Drinking their sad and lonely tasteless lemonades. Thumbs down 👎, really. To one of the most positive and lyrical hip hop songs of all time. Haaaaaaaaaa! No soul you do not have. Hummmmmmmm
Nothing beats this version -- searched high and low for the 12" after seeing the video back when - (BTW flash of Sinead O'Connor at 03:21 - Lyte featured on one of her best tracks "I want your hands on me")
Lyte as a Rock, or I should say a boulder Rolling down your neck, pounding on your shoulders Never shall I be an MC, called a wannabe I am the Lyte, L-Y-T-E
Her voice is very unique. When you hear it, you know it's MC Lyte.
I ❤ Brooklyn women !!!
2020 and still have not heard a woman spit like this! This was 1988!
Facts
Queen Latifa
Listen to Antoinette's "This Girl Is Off On Her Own" she could spit just as dope as this!
@@CrazyAJOnYT yes
check me out then :)
Lyte always got viciously lyrical on her 2nd single of her albums. Lyte as a rock n stop look listen she go beastmode on

When females could spit while keeping their clothes on🔥🔥
They still took it off They just didn't sell it through songs and dress code like they do now💯
Research
Rapsody is the MC Lyte of today.
Lyte is an ancient Egyptian wow I don't remember this video wish I could
In my own humble opinion, Lyte is da best of da best and rules okay.
Imma be real honest, I didn’t know this major classic had a video! She should never ever be downplayed! She’s in my top 10 and will stay there! Peace! #vote!!!!’n
1988 was a great year!!! This was played too death in the clubs back in day!!!
Sallie Mae. U got that right!!!
I'm hip..nd I was born in '90!
It still gets much play
That bass though.... Bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce bounce
The “slave to the rhythm” verse is harder than any verse made in the last 15+ years.
The word ultimate I’m here to take the title 🙌🏼
She was before her time! Greatest female lyricist!
I agree 1000% but there were a few 7 or 8 really good lyricists of the 90's and early 2000's. I still consider Lyte the female g.o.a.t

FACTS 💯
Even better now than when I first discovered Her in 1988 😍❤️ Never gets old.
I just realized how special this song is, used to be a big MC Lyte fan as a kid, but i was more gone off her beauty, this song is unreal.
I never found her beautiful, but I was attracted to how she carry herself and spit.I was to busy wanting to bang Sheryl and Sandy(Salt n Peppa)Short and thick with light skin.
No nudity , no twerks only real lyrics and the flow #Mc Lyte
Number 1 Lady Rapper, she is better than these new rappers males
Back then rappers are poet first and MC second. No need to curse every other word.
🗣 SHE RIPPED THIS!🔥🔥
I'm today years old when I found out Sinead O'Connor was in this video at the 3:21 mark dancing in the crowd shot. Who knew?!?!?
Never knew that
After reading your comment and looking for her. I now know.
Females might not even be in the game today if it wasn't for MC lyte. MC light would easily dismantle any current female rapper we have now.!!

@@skrapelotto too bad you youngsters don’t know shit
STAMPED 💯 allllllDAY!!
You are so right. My first musical love was Salt n Pepa and female rap of the 80's. Nothing to compare
@@skrapelotto Lyte > Nikki EVERY and ANY day!
The GOAT 🐐
One the best MCs ever male or female. She never sold sex. She spoke to the intellect. Truly a poor righteous teacher.
RIP Sinead O'Connor at 3:20 ❤️
I used to enjoy seeing this video on Yo! MTV Raps!!!
My favorite female rapper ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
The reason why I ❤️hip hop. My favorite female MC of all time.
This shit is dope as fuck, cant believe it came out in the 80s
A Brooklyn hero! 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾
L & m. Crooklin
Lyte is fine
Brooklyn...💯💯💯💯
@@Hborn one of are best women's rapper's
Lyte was, is, & will always be 🔥
Today’s hip hop chicks could NEVER compare to a REAL female MC!
love MC Lyte!!!!!
Even Latifah has said more or less her friend MC Lyte is the best female thus far
I was OBSESSED with this song & video. I was about 8.
Ms Trina.. Mc lyte is who inspired ALL of the rap girlies. PERIODT❤❤❤
She’s a HipHop Icon, smart & beautiful. She grew even more attractive as she got older in my opinion.
Wow that's powerful. The Lyte, lyte as a rock strong like a boulder.. 🐉🇭🇹
Mc lyte is a legend in rap game. Music 🎶 🎤 . No cap
"This is the way it is, don't ever forget
Hear the rhyme by someone else and you know they bit
All in the way, just little obstacles
Chew 'em up, spit em out, just like popsicles" she snapped
Mc Lyte was my idol... I think I was as old as that little girl in the video when this came out.
My favorite female rapper
Still pumping this in 2022. I still remember when this video dropped. Requested it till my parents blocked the Box on our TV 😆
Young Folks Just Don't Have A CLUE Poor Thangs!!!!!😭😭😭🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽
Love this woman.
She was a pioneer
Stdaight talent no need to ve where like cardi
My 10 & 5 year old kids love listening to MC Ltye in the car, such positive messages to give to kids! Inspirational 🤘🏻😎

Super Dope🔥🔥🔥
She is the lyte. Big facts. Mc lyte knew that she was an inspiration from the very beginning.
This is how you knew it was Friday…you had to be there
Happy Bornday MC Lyte
RIP to Sinead O'Connor who had cameo in this video
First time seeing her since the video came out. Smh
Putting hip hop today to shame bruh
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 that’s all I gotta say!!!!
“Give the rhyme to someone else, and you know they’d fail.” Go…go…Lyte!
2020 Still Rockn!!
Thats bassssssssssssssss. Ooooooooooooooweeeeeeeee. Bounce
The black girl playing with a black doll was a powerful self esteem image.
That prevented a million teen pregnancies by itself.
The message 88 vs the message 2021....
RIP Sinead
Legendary

Was thinking the same thing, somebody needs to remix this version with that beat, today.
Yes that was on One of the Nightmare on Elm Street’s soundtracks, I think Part 3
Wow never noticed Sinead in there
