Legendary rapper MC Lyte
is preparing to release a new book aimed at inspiring readers entitled “Just
My Take.”
“Just My Take”
includes poetry and words of inspiration from Lyte herself, words she hopes
will inspire teenagers and young ladies from the ages of 14-22.
“Every morning I’d
wake with the anticipation of writing down whatever moved me,” Lyte said.
“Throughout my career I have been inspired by young people across America
to speak up and out– and now it’s my turn to hopefully inspire and motivate
them at a time when few emcees are willing to give words of advice.”
To support the book, Lyte
will make several promotional appearances in New York where there will be readings
and book signings.
