The MC Lyte App

There is no doubt that MC Lyte is a pioneer in the hip hop game and she has always been a favorite of mine.  It is rare that you will not see Lyte’s name on anyone’s “best of…” hip hop lists. She has a flow like none other and it stands to this day.  So, of course I follow MC Lyte on Instagram…and I was so excited when she announced that she has her own app.  Sorry that I’m just now getting around to telling you all about it, but you should definitely check it out. 
The MC Lyte app features a link to sign up for fan mail and you’ll be the first to receive announcements about Mc Lyte’s upcoming events and projects. Subscribers to the app also gain access to Mc Lyte’s latest studio album Legend (2015).  The MC Lyte app is available to both Apple and Android users.

Let me know what you think! 

The word legend is thrown around lightly, but MC Lyte has definitely earned the title.  Not only has she established a long list of ‘firsts’ in the music industry, but she has maintained a long-standing and admirable place in the industry as an entrepreneur, philanthropist, inspirational speaker, actress, voiceover artist, and so much more.
