About Cookie Crew
Hometown
London, England
Formed
1983
Genre
Hip-Hop/Rap
One of the first and most significant British female hip-hop acts, South London duo Cookie Crew were equally skilled at making club-oriented pop-rap and more socially conscious hardcore rap. They broke through with 1987's "Rok da House," a collaboration with the Beatmasters which was arguably the first hip-house track, and certainly the style's first major hit. While Cookie Crew incorporated elements of house and electro into their music, they were never interested in being pigeonholed as a dance act. Their two albums, 1989's Born This Way and 1991's Fade to Black, featured production by members of Stetsasonic, Black Sheep, and Gang Starr, as well as collaborations with vibraphonist Roy Ayers and funk legend Edwin Starr. Following a pair of 1992 singles which respectively concentrated on the duo's house and hardcore sides, Cookie Crew disbanded. Their entire discography was collected on the 2024 box set Pick Up on This: 1987-1992.
