MC Lyte - born Lana Michele Moorer - began rapping at the age of 12 and began her career in 1986. The release of her first single, “I Cram to Understand U (Sam)”, was produced by her older brothers. This song, about a lying boyfriend’s crack cocaine addiction, became a modest R&B hit and led to her recording contract with First Priority Music. Her debut album, Lyte As a Rock, was released in 1988, and featured the previously mentioned single and another rap single entitled “10% Dis”; which targeted her rival at the time, rapper Antoinette.

Her second album, Eyes on This was released in 1989. It spawned Lyte’s first #1 Rap Tracks single “Cha Cha Cha” and another hit titled “Cappuccino”, which is a metaphysical story weaved around a bad cappuccino experience, he song’s video was directed by Ric Menello, who also helmed the The Beastie Boys’s, “Fight for Your Right” music video.
Lyte turned to producers Wolf & Epic (of Bell Biv Devoe fame) for her third release, 1991’s Act Like You Know, which spawned another #1 Rap Track titled “Poor Georgie” and two smaller hits “When in Love” and “Eyes are the Soul”. In 1993, she released the album Ain’t No Other. The album spawned yet another #1 Rap Track, “Ruffneck”, which earned her a Grammy Award nomination for Best Rap Single and was the first ever gold single by a solo female rap artist (Salt-N-Pepa had had several gold and platinum singles earlier). Another minor single titled “I Go On” also came from this album.
