Hip-hop trailblazer MC Lyte is making a triumphant return to the music scene, announcing her first album in nearly a decade. Inspired by the celebration of hip-hop’s 50th anniversary, Lyte decided it was the perfect moment to bring new music to her fans.
“I felt like with all the love that was out there in every venue, it was time,” Lyte told Newsweek. “I think a lot of us felt that way last year, which is why you’re seeing so many legendary emcees stepping back onto the mic.”
The album features collaborations with a lineup of music heavyweights, including Stevie Wonder, Queen Latifah, and Common. As one of the genre’s pioneering female rappers, Lyte is set to remind audiences of her enduring influence while adding a fresh chapter to her storied career. Fans can expect a blend of lyrical prowess and star-studded performances that honor both hip-hop’s legacy and its vibrant future.
