Almost September
















Lauded lyricist MC Lyte finds herself back in the limelight with the trio Almost September, but an unlikely source deserves the credit for positioning the Grammy winner. Eccentric singer Macy Gray one night missed a studio session with producer/ writer/ vocalist Whitey and producer/ writer Jared Lee, MC Lyte showed up...and the rest is history.

A beat inspired multiple bars and by night's end Lyte, Whitey and Jared Lee were a group with the new single, "Beautiful." Whitey and Lee may be unknown to the public compared to Lyte but they're quite familiar with success; India.Arie, Tyrese, Floetry, Toni Braxton, JoJo, Paula De Anda, Jon B, and Steph Jones are just a few who've benefited from the lyrics and beats of this tandem. Lee has been up for multiple Grammys and Whitey actually won one.

Favorite tracks include "Beautiful" and "Stay" is certainly one of those bangers that you need for the spring months...
