B*Witched were all the rage and girls were still swooning over Boyzone. But there was something missing from the Irish musical landscape: a female hip-hop group.

Buffalo G were a duo comprised of teenagers Naomi Lynch, sister of Boyzone’s Shane Lynch and B*Witched’s Edel and Keavy Lynch, and Olive Tucker. They released a single We’re Really Saying Something, a cover of the Velvelettes/Bananarama song of the same name.
