The Girls Are Back

Thu, 20 Oct 2005 Source: ghanamusic.com

When they bounced onto the hiplife scene a couple of years ago, they did so in style as the first all-female group in that music type. Mildred, Monica and Mercy who make up Triple M are back with their second album Mempe.

Remember their beautiful choreography anytime they were on stage doing songs like Koti and Girls Girls? The girls say, what they have this time around is bigger and better.

Followers of Triple M would have noticed that they are a mouthpiece of violence against women, the campaign continues with this album, doing it for the men as well.

Mildred, leader of the group told Showbiz that after the success of their debut, they could not afford to come out with anything less, “we took our time to do a lot of research, our latest album will thrill everybody, believe me,” were the words of the very confident Mildred.

Basically the songs seek to educate people on the role of women in society’s progress and development and also bring to light the fact that not only women are abused domestically, “ there are also men who due to cultural values and beliefs are silent about their share of inhuman treatment,” were the words of Mercy.

Monica who kept smiling throughout said she was very optimistic that their current album will be another success story because, “the response so far is unbelievable.”

The lyrics in Mempe, the title song reminds one of Koti. In Mempe, a woman complains bitterly about the treatment being meted out to her by her husband who does not come home early, does not eat her food and abuses her all the time. Obviously, she does not like any of these, hence Mempe.

Other songs on the album are Kasa, Sweety Sweety, Shawn Am, Alangowa, Platu and Bu Shia Me. There are also instrumentals of Mempe, Kasa and Sweety Sweety.

Triple M, as usual employ dzama in most of the songs making them very danceable. Listening to them, one cannot lose sight of the fact that they have matured with time.

The girls, according to their manager King Luu, will soon undertake a nation-wide tour, “apart from thrilling their audiences with spectacular performances, they will also use the opportunity to arouse public support to address issues concerning inhuman treatment of men and women,” he said.

In a male dominated area like hiplife, it is refreshing to hear the girls are back, obviously bigger and better.

Personally I believe they will go places given the necessary push and encouragement. Go Girls!
