UR005 – MC Lyte (YO! Unplugged & Spoken Word II) [1991 & 1994]
Update: 2024-11-20
Description
MC Lyte joins the show to discuss playing MTV Unplugged twice: first on the 1991 YO! Unplugged hip-hop show (alongside A Tribe Called Quest, De La Soul, and LL Cool J) and then on the second Spoken Word episode from 1994. Tune in to hear her reminisce about playing “Cappuccino” with a live band (and how that informed some of the songs on her next album), as well as how validating the experience of publicly performing her poem “An Open Letter to My Biological Father” was for someone who had been writing poetry since she was a kid.
If you dig the show, want to share your own Unplugged memories, ask a question, request a show topic, or connect with the pod for any reason, there are a couple ways you can get in touch:
- You can email me at unpluggedrevisited@gmail.com,
- You can reach out on twitter at @unplugged_pod,
- You can leave a voicemail (that’ll maybe get played on the show) by dialing 234-REVISIT (234-738-4748)
