Hip Hop Legend MC Lyte performs for Heat 100 Radio’s 7th Anniversary

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Heat 100 Radio is taking Internet Radio to another level and has been successfully and consistently broadcasting for seven years! From celebrity interviews and your favorite music to a line-up of radio shows hosted by the most entertaining multi-media personalities. “We are proud to stand on our own two feet,” said Heat 100 Radio. 

To celebrate this special 7th Anniversary, station owner Simply Monica did it big with The Living Legends Concert featuring the Living Hip Hop Legend MC Lyte along with her DJ K Rock at The Exclusive Penthouse. 

Heat 100 Radio shined the spotlight on female MCs from Philadelphia, Asia Sparks, Nina Ross, and Ms. Jade, all opening up for their idol, MC Lyte. Parry P and Roc Star P hosted the concert! 

The star-studded event featured key moments, as Heat 100 Radio honored Andria Mayberry with the #TheIndigenous Leader Award and Dr. Sonji Brooks with The Game Changer Award. Her daughter Asia Sparks opened the show for MC Lyte. 

The vibe, the music, and watching MC Lyte rock the stage were super dope. It was like a family reunion, as I re-connected with so many. Also on the special guest list were Peedi Crakk, Dutchie Man, Who Mag’s Rob Schwartz, and so many more. Simply Monica goes all out and brings in all the influential players in entertainment and beyond. 

Shelly Shell: What is your strategy for staying in the radio business for seven years? 

Simply Monica: My strategy for staying in business for seven years is mainly staying consistent and relevant. I make sure that our line-up of shows continues to be informative, present, and involved in the community. Our goal is to give the unheard a platform to express themselves and get noticed. 

Shelly Shell: What was the inspiration for choosing MC Lyte for your 7th Anniversary? 

Simply Monica: I chose MCLYTE for two reasons. The first is to show that internet radio stations mean business, and we can hold our own just like if not better than mainstream, who has stereotyped us as fads or trendy. The second reason is to celebrate my best friend in the whole world, Hope Quarles, whose favorite artist is MC Lyte. I gave her MC Lyte as her 50th Birthday present. 

Shelly Shell: What are some of the highlights of the event? 

Simply Monica: Some of The highlights were merging the legendary Parry P with the new Wave of RocStar P and their untouchable hosting skills. Highlights also included an appearance by Roger Bonds, who has been advocating #Justice4Kevan, his son who has been in-prisoned for 11 years now, taking time out to come to celebrate while still advocating. The VIPs got to enjoy over the top VIP room with Celebrity Chef Rashaun.
