"After Antoinette bit the beat from her brother Milk D's massive hit "Top Billin'" Lyte went on the warpath. "10% Dis" is pure, unrelenting devastation--ether before "Ether."
..I heard Big Sean say your last lineWhat a dope beef. Miss these days.
10% Dis is still ether.... Hot damn hoe shut the F up! Crazy
..I heard Big Sean say your last line
I'm talking about the cadence of Big Sean not just the words.Line has been used by a bunch of rappers based off the Lyte line.
If you watching yo mtv and rap city back in the day you would have. She kind of like in the class of the forgotten rapper.never heard of her
Go play somewhere sonnever heard of her
I always felt Antoinette had a better flow, lyrics, metaphors & voice

FactRespectable but Naaaaaaaa lol.
Lyte as a Rock is stuff tougher then some artist entire catalog...
Fact
Then when these came out? It was a wrap. Lyte to me is still the measuring stick in many ways for female MCs. Never really had another one that came out with that kind of success without the selling of sex. I know its a different time and all that but yea. She got biz.
Antoinette was dope - I got an attitude was my shit back then. Wasn't there a rumor that Rakim or somebody was writing Antoinettes rhymes?
Antoinette's dopest joint, I used to blast that in the jams, and indeed she's way better than a lot of cats, even now,
but MC Lyte was a whole different class of dope.
nigga go somewhere!
Listen everybody looks for different things in Music.
In Rap I listen for Flow, Metaphors, Complexity, Voice and Lyrics.
If you can find an MC Lyte song that has better things above than Antoinette's "Attitude"
please attach it. Her shit was play school compared to Antoinette.
crack clearly hit your street hardUmmm No, Don't know WHEN that shit reached you but I was here at ground zero and saw everything transpire.
Antoinette was totally different lyrically. She was from the Bronx which was (at the time) WAYYYY more respected than Brooklyn . MC Lyte's lyrics and flow is play school compared to Antoinette's. Listen to how many times she switched flows in "an attitude". Listen to the metaphors...they non-existent with Lyte
Problem was is Lyte had a better team behind her.

...and make it far!
I remember hating MC Lyte's Poor Georgie, however I loved the beat; I was torn. & that goes for a lot of her songs, weak lyrics and good beats. She stepped up her game lyrically with "Ruff Neck," though.
