From the Single Four Women (1995)

Teremoana Rapley — an important early beacon of representation for young Polynesian women in the 1990s — made a bold statement with her second solo single, a cover of Nina Simone’s 'Four Women'. The four women of each verse are provocative archetypes of 1960s African American women. Rapley's choice to omit their names couldn’t thwart the political power of the song, with Rapley later stating that it was "initially given an 'A' rotate listing on commercial radio stations throughout Aotearoa, until the networks listened to the lyrics and took it completely off-air". ‘Four Women’ was released as a single in 1995.
