WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH: Antoinette.

Hailing from Queens, NY, Antoinette was a female MC who released two albums, during the late 1980s and early 1990s. She made her first appearance on producer Hurby Azor's 1987 compilation album, Hurby's Machine, with her song "I Got An Attitude". She has been mentioned in the Vibe Hip-Hop Divas publication.



As time went on Antoinette was known for engaging in rap beef w/ MC Lyte, another Female MC from Brooklyn. After that Antoinette was never heard of again. Some say because of the "beef", others blame it on the negligence of Hurby, who was also responsible for guiding the careers of Salt-N-Pepa, Kid-N-Play, & Sweet Tee.
