You may need to put gloves on before you pick up the Ghetto Twiinz scintillating joint, “Rock Rock.“
Right off the rip, this double-edged duo, Ms. GB (Tonya Jupiter) and T.L.T (Tremethia Jupiter), prove they are much more than pretty ornaments atop a producer tracks. And it’s immediately evident that their lyrical prowess and come hither sexiness have not deteriorated despite the corrosive powers of time. After putting their mics on the shelf for nine years, they have come back so hard on Them People Coming CD you’d think they spent the last decade barricaded in a studio.
The opening booming beats of “Rock, Rock” will make the hardest street cat stand at attention. More than that, their infectious delivery is perfectly synchronized with one another. The words don’t so much flow from their mouths as much as they practically dance into the atmosphere as if arranged by a choreographer.
That’s why legendary super-producer Mannie Fresh blessed the mic before the Ghetto Twiinz ripped the stage in advance of another prodigal rapper, Mystikal, at the House of Blues in their old New Orleans haunts. After they’ve permanently shifted the environment inside that joint, you come to the conclusion that, while they were away from the game, the Ghetto Twiinz should have offered tutorials for the roving pack of foxes who have launched into fame off the musical platform that they built.
With skills as long as their lovely legs, Katrinaville Entertainment is the new independent artistic house where the Ghetto Twiinz’s talents marinate like a bottle of fine French wine. It is where Them People Coming CD is being served to the mass in thick doses and signal their entrance like the trumpet of a halftime band. “Rock Rock” has been racking up radio rotation across the South from Texas to Mississippi and back to Louisiana. And for added viewing pleasure, the Ghetto Twiinz enable old hip hop heads and fresh cats to view “Rock Rock” — and the visual delights — on the accompanying video on WorldStarHipHop.com and YouTube.
But before you dial them up, remember: handle this musical cuisine called the Ghetto Twiinz with care because these chicks are unapologetically hot.
