La'Vita G. Raynor born on September 26, 1981, from Plainfield, New Jersey is an African American female rapper known simply as "Vita". She first got a real life look into being a rapper when her older sister, Kima, joined Bad Boy Entertainment's R&B trio, Total. Later she signed a management contract to Hype Williams, a well known music video director. In 1999, under the name Hot Totti, she appeared in the Hype Williams film "Belly" playing DMX's girlfriend on the side. In the same year she also signed her first deal with Murder Inc., joining Irv Gotti's super group The Murderers. The Murderers made their debut with the release of "Irv Gotti present: The Murderers". Vita's self-titled song "Vita" was the album's third single. She was scheduled to release her debut album La Docle Vita in 2000, however it was never released. After constant album delays she left the label to sign to The Game's The Black Wall Street Records label, but according to Vita's My Space page she is no longer signed to Game's Black Wall Street nor is she listed on the label website.
