2024 anyone?

This beat is crazy then she murdered this

My exhusband always would say mclyte is sooooo pretty and she IS!🥰

MC Lyte Is A Legend.... These young female rappers don't know what's happening.... 🥰❤️

MC Lyte is a beast!

MC Lyte was dope AF!!!

LL had "Around the Way Girl", and Lyte had this, "Ruffneck". Two of the best Hip-Hop anthems that paid homage to the 'real' brothers and sisters from the hood. Lyte killed this track! She is a G.O.A.T., no doubt!

IF YOU SEEING THIS IN 2024,2025,2026,2027,YOU'S PART OF THE REAL ONES STILL.

The legend MC Lyte. One of the greatest female lyricist.

Lyte had MEN scared to fuck wit her on the mic 😂😂😂😂😂

These lyrics don't age, they mature like a fine wine. Can't beat the old tunes

Her voice is just lit 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

A REAL female MC. 🔥🔥🔥Talent, like this is hard to find these days

14 yr old me thought I was the sshhttt knowing every lyric of this song. McLyte is an Icon. Her voice is everywhere!!

These 90 beats go hard.

Her voice 😍

Ruffneck and Ain't No Other as a whole was a straight classic!!! MC Lyte is one of the GOATS male or female don't matter.

Damn remember this. Back when even female rappers had more testosterone than rappers these days.

0:54 "Roughneck attitude, the roughneck bastard." She was great, used to listen to this all the time.

This 59 old white guy just loves this jam. MC Lyte is one bad...

LYTE HAD THE BEST HAIR, HER AND QUEEN LATIFAH‼️🥰🥰

Back when tracks had attitude. You can feel the beat.

I will Always love this song. 1 of my favorites. Her swag is everything. Original. Noone can copy her style

"Beep him 911 and he'll be right there." What an early 90's line.

This is too raw, Mc lyte throwing the kitchen sink and everything

Mc Lyte summed up life in four words " eat, sleep,sh*t, f*ck" almost thirty years later and that still about sums it up!

She didn't have to be assy to prove herself, her lyrics and skills speak for themselves.

She is back with a new one WOMAN she is a whole legend

00:50 "Beep him 911 and he'll be there", haha youngstas' don't know nada 'bout that! 😂🙅🏻‍♀️

Fresh relaxer poppin! No lace front dragging across the floor.

Damn!!! 1993 this dropped I was 23 and all about the rough necks frfr!!! I'm 50 now...tou live and learn but this is still my joint!! MC Lyte is the GOAT!!!!$

MC Lyte in my opinion was a badass in that video and the song too. At the same time she will go down in history as the baddest female artist that can battle anyone or any body.

What real hip-hop sounds...real MC'$,real beats,real lyrics and they make sense...

I miss them dayz - please come back

Gotta give MC Lyte and Queen Latifah Props, I was in my 20s when this came out still listenin' - back down memory lane.......,

I wasn't born when this song came out but I do remember hearing this song from a video NBA Street 3 when I was a kid back in the 2000's. Listening to the whole thing today....straight 🔥🔥🔥🔥. One of my coworkers grew up on this music and at fight I thought MC Lyte was MC Light. That's how young I am.

She gotta swagger of a full dude and still badd af

“Cause If it ain’t rough It ain’t Right And If he ain’t ruff well then, he’s all wrong for the Lyte “💥💥❤️

There’s no female rapper out can touch this lady. They can’t begin to rap as good as this.

MC lyte and Queen latifah was the best and still 💯

Every. Single. Word. Slaps! This is 3 minutes of lyrical bliss. She makes sense & everything has meaning.

MC Lyte is amazing. She played at our Grad Night at Disneyland in 1994. Those days were just it. Today is not it at all. 😂😂😂

Nothing beats MC Lyte

Rap like this has to make a comeback. It HAS TO!!

MC Lyte is the greatest female rapper of all time & the best song in 93.

Home girl commanded the stage. Second to none. Lyte and Latifah dominated this era.

Her hair draping like that made officially her WIFEY on this video.

MC Lyte is a beast🔥

Fun fact.. did you know Left Eye was originally supposed to be on the song?! She was the second verse.. MC Lyte said it back in April.. both are cold blooded when it comes to song writing.. that would’ve been so epic!!!

Nicki, Cardi and Remy, yes I said Remy Ma don’t have NOTHING on MC Lyte! NOTHING! Her swag is legendary!

The beats of the 90s gets to me. Wow!!! These songs are so real, never fades.

I grew up on this. Hip Hop influenced me from so far away. The golden age of Hip Hop belongs in the '90s period. 🖖🏾 South Africa 🇿🇦

Man, I remember seeing this on Yo! back in the 90's!

And she kept it classy. A woman you could respect

Nikki and cardi who? Thats what I thought.

Her flow is insane!!

MC Lyte would wipe the floor with Cardi B and Nicki Minaj. Lyte paved the way for the female rappers of today.

NBA Street vol. 3 kept us out of a lot of trouble and this song was on there lol

I forgot how beautiful this damn girl is. And rap skills is off the charts

I turned 21, and left the British Army in 93, a great year for Hip Hop. The year I met my sons mum. We separated in 01. So I spent 18 months getting fit for SAS T.A in 03. Broke my back on a weekend off from selection in March 03. Went out clubbing again from 01 to 04. Now 48 in 2020, and disabled. But still love 93 for the great Hip Hop, that was released that Yr. Best era 86 to 98. X

This track is 30 years old. 1993 Still FARKIN ROCKZ.! SORRY NEIGHBOURS 🔈🎵💜🤘

Lyte was truly one of the dopest female MC,s respect ✌️🇬🇧

Luv lyte never had to disrespect or womanize her self to show her talent Salute queen

Lin Que & MC Lyte - pure gold !

my all time favorite female rapper. i am all the way from Barbados and she was a great inspiration and one of the reasons i became a recording artist

Mc Lyte one of the best female rapper in the world i think 👍👍

This shit hits hard AF. I remember dancing my ass off in the club to this one. Lyte cemented her legacy with this track.

The song peaked at No. 35 on the US Billboard Hot 100 in October 1993 and the third No. 1 single on the Billboard Hot Rap Songs of her career. It also reached No. 67 on the UK Singles Chart. On November 30, 1993 "Ruffneck" became the first work by a female solo rapper to be certified gold by the RIAA. With this single MC Lyte also received her first Grammy Award nomination for Best Rap Solo Performance at the 36th Grammy Awards in February 1994, but lost to Dr. Dre's "Let Me Ride". The song contains a much more aggressive style than its previous singles. In Ruffneck, which has been described as an "ode to thug love",MC Lyte explicitly talks about her sexual preference for men who have a "wicked smile with a mouth full of gold teeth", "dude with a attitude" who'll "smack it, lick it, swallow it up style." As Lyte told Vibe magazine in 2011, the song came about after then-Atlantic vice president Sylvia Rhone sent it to Virginia to work with Teddy Riley and his production team, who already had tracks ready for her. "We were just sitting around talking and they played the 'Ruffneck' track. And we were thinking, "Okay, what can make an impact?" Someone brought up Apache’s "Gangsta B---h". I thought it would be dope to give an ode to the ruffneck in the hood." Regarding her use of the expression "ruffneck" she commented "I started talking about having something that gives tribute to West Indians because I grew up around that culture. And ruffneck happened to be a term that was used in West Indian culture. It was the feel that New York was going through." Years later Lyte was asked what happened to the girl who wanted a ruffneck, to which she replied "She’s older now. She still wants a ruffneck, but a ruffneck that’s a little more into the same things I’m into. Back then, I was still finding my way and was just someone who was willing to grow. So I’m not looking for the same ruffneck that I was looking back for then." In April 2020, on the 19th anniversary of the passing of TLC's Left Eye Lopes, Lyte has confessed that she originally had an appearance in the second verse "She flew down in the middle of her tour to Virginia to hit the studio with Aquil Davidson, Teddy Riley and ME", but that it could not be finalized because it was not approved by her label. This song, "Ruffneck" is made up of multiple sampled elements from James Brown's 1973 song "The Payback", George Clinton's 1982 song "Atomic Dog". It also has an interpolation to "If It Ain't Rough, It Ain't Right" by Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth (1992).

So underrated!!!!! As far as I’m concerned, no female rappers close!!!!

Real beauty and talent. Showcasing skill, versatility and talent to sell music not selling sex like the majority of the current crop of female rappers. A legend 🖤

One of the greatest rappers of all time.

Hello Mc Lyte. You are very good rap singer. You are irresistible rap godess You are a beautiful amazing and sweet chocolate woman !!! Happy and very good things of the World for you my sister miss Mc Lyte. ❤ ❤❤ ❤❤❤ ❤❤❤❤ ❤❤❤❤❤ From your albanian fans. ❤❤❤🇺🇲🇺🇲🇦🇱🇦🇱❤❤❤

"dont have to be large to be in charge" Let these little girls know size aint everything MC Lyte!

Spitting like the rent was due.

This was and STILL is the jam!

They don't make em like this anymore gem ✨️

Hands down one of the best lyricist alive💯

That chorus is so hype!

She raps so hard and dressed so thugged out that I Keep forgetting how beautiful MC Lyte is.

Lisa Lefteye Lopes was supposed to do second verse of this song. Since Pebbles (her manager or whatever) wanted a ridiculous 80% of the track, Lyte turned the offer down. Lisa then later used the verse for her rap in House Party 3, that’s why you can hear “ruffneck” in one of the lines. Deffo would have been dope if they kept her on it!

This song never get old

Mc Lyte is the TRUTH Love This my favorite song she has. CLASSIC, VINTAGE STYLE AND PRICELESS!!! Alot of the women rappers can't even compare!!! ♥️
