Wow, young people who got to see this now understand what a real MC is, MASTER of Ceremonies......that is how you flow....Female or Male is up at the top. That was an entire lyrical display of content.....not a hook and the same thing repeated over and over but an entire story masterfully done with style and a smooth fully clear and understandable, lyrically tight, flowing retort.....or as young people say today FIRE!!!!
Best MC of all time; male or female. Her voice is like no other, and for her to perform that well in that presidential setting is amazing. She is so cool!
Go Lyte!!! Bringing the substance AND the funk, and looking damn fine doing it. Such an underrated legend, really cool to see her having fun. This audience wasn't nearly hype enough!
Hell yeah she still got it, I can't even name a female rapper today plus she could probably destroy half of these lame rapper's of today. Oldschool rap rules anyway IMO, better beat's, better lyrics, smoother flow. I'll take EPMD, Eric B , ll cool J, big Daddy Kane and KRS 1 over any of these lame lyric mumbling rapper's today !!!!
+Mike Giannini i saw the beastie boys run dmc madison square garden 1986 busy b opened the show ill never forget that shit especially since 2 outta the 3 friends i went with passes away ......great memory
She sounds exACTLY the same as she did in the late 80's!! Just, inCREDIBLE!!
And looks better…beautiful
