Kid Sister already among Chicago's hottest acts
Jim DeRogatis: Born in Chicago Heights, Melissa Young didn't think a lot
about the role of women in hip-hop. So while the 29-year-old artist -- now better known to the music world as
Kid Sister -- is one of the most exciting voices to emerge on the scene
since the heyday of Queen Latifah, MC Lyte and Yo-Yo, she'd prefer to
be known as a great rapper, period, instead of as a great
female rapper.
