MC Lyte” Moorer’s groundbreaking career is filled with accomplishments, including Grammy nominations, a Trumpet Awards Trailblazer Award, and lifetime achievement honors from VH1 and BET. While the hip-hop pioneer is still doing her thing in the game, she’s proud to see how women in the industry have grown over the course of her decades-long reign.
The “Ruffneck” rapper, who recently curated an exclusive mix featuring women in hip hop for Red Bull Radio, spoke with Atlanta Black Star about what went into the creation of the hour-long track, her thoughts on the evolution of women’s roles in hip hop and which artist she feels is following most closely in her footsteps.
