I'm cool w/ Shante gettin her much deserved props, but all of this "she was the 1st..." talk needs 2 stop (unless your claim is that she was the1st to respond to UTFO's "Roxanne, Roxanne"). Sha Rock was well B 4 Shante as was the group, The Sequence, consisting of Blondie, Cheryl " The Pearl", & Angie B (who we now know as Angie Stone). Shante was nice on the mic, especially N battles or diss records, but she was hardly the 1st to do this female MC thg. & that does not diminish her contribution.
i have allways had a thing for Roxanne since i was 10 years old and im 37 now,i think shes totally gorgeous,she looks the same now,wish she was my wife
why do people have to compare,Roxanne,lyte whoever,they are all different,who was better the beatles or the stones? its apples and oranges,anyway Roxanne has allways been my number 1 because she just is,shes priceless
it may seem is if roxanne's revenge was her only hit, but actually roxanne had hit after hit after hit
for example, here are some of her early hits that stayed on radio countdowns, and took the number one spot for weeks: queen of rox, bite this, runanway, def fresh crew, have a nice day
Watch it now! If it wasn't for Roxanne Shante, you'd have no MC Lyte,Sparkie Dee,Salt n Pepa,Sweet Tee, Real Roxanne,etc. She is the Blue Print. Long live the Queen!
U ain't neva lied. Don't forget, there wouldn't be any of these female rappers either: Nikki D, Boss, Antoinette, Queen Latifah, Monie Love, Da Brat, Yo-Yo, Finesse & Synquis, Gangsta Boo, Choice, BWP, JJ Fad, HWA, Cookie Crew, Bonnie & Clyde, Sista Souljah, Ms. Melody, Evette Money and Ice Cream Tee. Many of them bit her style anyway. Though, MC Lyte has mad-flow. Roxanne Shante is a true diva. She pioneered the female rap game.
Just because she won an award, doesn't make her the best. Award winners in ANYTHING aren't always the best. In their overall careers, MC Lyte was better!
