She Rockers

She Rockers

The She Rockers were a female hip hop trio from London, the most famous member of which was Betty Boo (born Alison Moira Clarkson in Kensington, 1970).

Career

The group released a number of singles on the Jive Records label, and also released songs on the Music of Life produced Hard as Hell series. Their first single for Music of Life, 'Give It A Rest' was produced by Public Enemy's Professor Griff after the She-Rockers; Donna McConnell, Alison Clarkson and Dupe Fagbesa, performed an impromptu rap to Public Enemy in their local McDonalds.

Following Clarkson and Fagbesa's departure from the group in 1989, founding member McConnell (She-Roc) joined forces with original band member Antonia Jolly (Aurra) and landed an album deal with Jive Records releasing singles 'Jam It Jam', and the album "Rockers from London" (Jive, 1990).
