MC Lyte, Queen Latifah And Dove Soap Ads Keep It Real

by Ife Oshun ·

Queen LatifahHip-hop legend, MC Lyte, has signed on as part of the Hip-Hop Leadership Camp being held at UCLA August 10-13, 2006.

The camp encourages “at risk youth” to “look beyond dreams of being artists, by empowering them with the tools to become business people.”

A good idea given the dirth of “artists” in the business solely to make money.

Other participants will include Sway (from the Sway & Tech Wake Up Show), DJ Skee, Chino XL and Sticky Fingaz.

Also, fellow female hip-hop vet, Queen Latifah, is launching the 2006 Curvation Project Confidence. And while at first I thought it was something about being curvy and proud of it, it’s nothing like those reality ads from Dove soap.

“Awards is a nationwide search to recognize women who personify and project the power of confidence through contributions to their local communities – via education, fund-raising, self-empowerment and volunteer work – to help other women to gain confidence and self esteem.”

Heavy stuff.
