What can I say about siblings The Wee Papa Girl Rappers…. They were the poor man’s Salt ‘n’ Pepa UK style. They were MAINSTREAM!!!!! I wasn’t a fan at all! But they did manage to walk away with two top ten hit singles under their belts back in the late 80s, and if my memory serves me correctly their debut album didn’t do too badly either…… ‘We Rule’ Circa 1988 ‘Heat It Up’ Circa 1988 I wonder where they are now……

I’m not sure if my US based visitor’s will remember this duo, but I’m sure some of my UK visitors will. Female Hip Hop duo The Cookie Crew hailed from Clapham South West London, and were pretty big back in the late 80s. They also enjoyed some success Stateside. Check out their 1989 hit ‘I Got To Keep On’ I wonder where they are now……

READ This has been on the cards for about a year and a half now. I guess now it’s “official”. Well… this will be interesting. Actually this union could prove to be a successful one for Sway. He’s a grafter and will make it work. Unlike some UK artists I could mention (ahem.. ahem.. Wiley), who sign to majors/their subsidiaries and then head for the hills when it suddenly dawns on them that they will be expected to WORK!!!!
