Being that the Legendary MC is the founder of the Hip Hop Sisters Network, explaining that the network is “a non-profit foundation that promotes positive images of women of ethnic diversity, bringing leaders together from the world of Hip Hop, the entertainment industry, and the corporate world.” MC Lyte says that trying to get an education these days is harder then its ever been.
“It feels like everything is on a downward spiral and education has become one the least important aspects of what needs to be done for the kid. It’s a bit of a disgrace on the government’s part that we’ve come to this and No Child Left Behind has left us with graduates who still don’t read. “

“I think the strive for an education can come from the person themselves, “ MC Lyte says in the interview. “Kids say, ‘You can’t make me go to school!’ Once they get there, what do they do? Back in my day the teachers cared. It’s a working together that has to happen with the school systems and citizens who want to go to school.”
In October MC Lyte came out with a song called “Dear John” featuring another Hip Hop Legend, the Chicago Native that we know as Common to bring forward the knowledge of the failure in education to the public eye.
