Tala Pasifika - Brown Sugar
Television (Full Length) – 1996
So let me get this right. We need Polynesian lyrics, using Black American bass lines, but not accents, without forgetting we're women and pointing out the low economic background of our people...– Tiuila (Tausili Mose)
That's where all those stupid Samoan boys get it from — they think just because they get a Palangi girlfriend, they've made it big time!– Ana (Andrea Lea Balulich)
...be proud of what you got, is really what it's all about. Big hair, big lips, big butts, check it out!– Pop group Brown Sugar singing their song
