UK HIP HOP FLASH BACK: THE WEE PAPA GIRL RAPPERS – ‘WE RULE’/'HEAT IT UP’
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……

Oh my lawd, this took me waaaay back. Gosh, they were awful weren’t they? I’d love to know where they are now. Do you all remember the likes of Derek B and Betty Boo? Equally wack! LOL
The Cookie Crew on the other hand were wicked. Yes, one of the girls reps UK and US recording artists, so is still very much involved in the industry.

@MsQuiche
They were awful… but admittedly I sort of grew to like ‘Heat It Up’ LOL!!
Thanks for reminding me about Betty Boo and Derek. I am going to post those later.
Ty correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t Betty Boo originally in the She Rockers?

Janice I can’t even remember ‘Heat it Up’ too tough. Just have vague flashbacks of them squealing on Top of the Pops ‘We ruuule, Wee Papa runs the dance ( bo bo bo)/ Inna brand new fashion, inna dancehall style we ruuulel” Shame, can’t believe I actually remember that (laugh).
Re: Betty Boo being in the She Rockers, I think you’re right you know.

@Ty
Lol. Nothing. I just remembered that she was in a group before going solo, and I think it was definitely the she rockers.
@ MsQuiche
I remember there appearance on top of the pops. Wearing black tight spandex cycling shorts and black leather jackets.lol
