MC Lyte ft. Lil Mama & AV – Ball

Less than two months ago, the world experienced the musical genius of MC Lyte’s first Billboard charting single in eleven years: the ground-breaking urban hit “Dear John,” featuring Common and 10 Beats. “Dear John” is the anthem for #EducateOURMen, which is the signature scholarship initiative of MC Lyte’s Hip Hop Sisters Foundation, which has presented two $100,000 university scholarships during the Soul Train Music Awards Red Carpet Pre-Show each year since the organization’s founding. MC Lyte stated that this year, the foundation will present dozens of scholarships earmarked to send men of color to HBCU’s, and she quickly followed up on that commitment with this past weekend’s red carpet announcement.
