In this special episode of The G Code with ADRI.V, I had the incredible honor of sitting down with the legendary MC Lyte ahead of her visit to Buffalo. From being the first solo female rapper to release a full-length album, to expanding her impact into acting, voiceover work, and advocacy—MC Lyte is a true trailblazer who continues to evolve and inspire.

We talked about her journey in the music industry, the creative process behind her new album 1 of 1, and the powerful reasons behind her commitment to giving back through platforms like the Hip Hop Sisters Foundation. Of course, she dropped plenty of G Codes—especially for female artists and those navigating the entertainment world.

And yes, I had a total fangirl moment (because how could I not?!), but this episode was filled with gems, real talk, and moments that reminded me why I fell in love with hip-hop in the first place.
