A Twin Combo
Girl power ay, Daddy’s Girls were finally in the building. Arriving shortly before their performance at 7.45 pm at the Mother Bar in Shoreditch for the Oxjam takeover event. The crowd awaited the ladies to go on stage, but the talented duo were unable to start their performance as they were waiting for their back up singer who goes by the name of Shay. This was unfortunate as the event was already running slightly behind schedule. At this point, the small basement room that was once just full of an entertained crowd was not so full and the crowd were defiantly not entertained.
A little while after back up singer Shay had arrived, Daddy’s Girls were ready to rock the mic and get Mother Bar up and pumping again. First, all three of the ladies apologised for the late coming of Shay and stated that they were going to make up for their lateness. As the girls introduce themselves, they announced that they would be performing three songs. All three songs plus many more would be on their free give away cd’s that the girls had brought along with them.
After their first song, the crowd was dancing, the room was filling and the atmosphere was epic. By the end of all three performances, Daddy’s Girls and Shay had certainly made up for loss time and it was clear that the audience were loving the Daddy’s Girls lyrical tone. Before exiting the stage, they requested the crowd to applaud the amazing live band that accompanied them throughout their set. I later learnt that that was in fact the first time that the girls and the band had performed live together. And what a great performance it was.
Mikel Ameen, Dionne Reid and Little Simz were just a few of the other acts that the girls were looking forward to seeing perform that night. They described Mikel Ameen as a “down to earth, funny, positive guy who has such an amazing message”.
The girls stuck around to party with friends and was more than willing to give interviews to those who asked.
Daddy’s Girls are very down to earth, and whilst they may still be young – their focus and determination to succeed within the music industry is mind blowing. Oxjam was the first charity event that the girls had ever performed at, they later explained that it would not be their last. They were excited to be a part of a supporting cause and felt extremely loved and appreciated by the crowd.
Daddy’s Girls who go by the name of Missy and Mellow are 23-year-old, beautiful and talented sister’s who are an unidentical twins. Their love and passion for music runs throughout their veins. This is due to the many talented musicians within their family. The twins are one set of two, out of seven siblings. Whilst music has been in their life from an early age, it was not until 2008 that the girls really started to take it seriously. The duo chose the name Daddy’s Gilrs as they are in fact daddys girls. But after seeing it tattooed on a lady’s neck in New York, the girls decided to run with it. They then described that they like the way that “some people think it sounds dirty, some people think it sounds nice and its a good name because people don’t forget it. I mean, they always have something to say about it”. So what does the future hold for Daddy’s Girls I asked? “Well, we just want to go as far as we can go really, we really just want to make a living making music and have everybody enjoy what we do and visor verser us enjoy what we do as well really”.
Daddy’s Girls are here to stay guys, watch this space.
