Do you know this about sweet tee?
One of the first, if not the first, female rappers ever recorded.
She is the Daughter of Paul Winley, of Winley Records (active 1956-1985).
Some of the first records of female rappers were "Rhymin' and Rappin'" (1979), and Tanya's solo "Vicious Rap" (1980), both recorded and Winley Records.
Some say she holds some of Hip Hop's best singles during 1979 and 1980.
Tanya's career took a turn after Winley records closed due to legal issues involving Afrika Bambaataa.
