MC LYTE FIGHTS FOR FEMALE RAP GRAMMY

Rap veteran MC LYTE is spearheading a new campaign to help her peers pick up more Grammy Awards.
The Cha Cha Cha hitmaker, who became the first female rapper to score a gold single, is using her position on the Grammy committee to reinstall a category for the ladies of hip-hop at the annual music Oscars.
She says, "We have not had a female rap category at the Grammys since 2003, and I'm trying to get this thing reinstated for 2009.
"I'm getting all of these sisters ready, whether they're signed or unsigned."
