The Month of March is recognized as “Women’s History Month“, and we recognize a few great Women who made significant contributions to Music. Today’s selection on “Oldies Sunday” comes from Queen Paula with the track, “Me A The Teacher“.
Produced by Michael Harrison and Steve Knight and released through Ridim Force in 1988, Queen Paula leaves the Musical Teachers’ College to own the scene with a catchy flow and attention-grabbing lyrics in “Me A The Teacher”. The early years of Dancehall saw the rise of Female Deejays, and Queen Paula was a part of the flock that took over the scene, and showed the Men that the Women can run things as well. The track made the statement that Paula is a top tier Artist, and it’s not going to be a small feat if you wish to challenge her. “Me A The Teacher” was well-received by the listeners, and was added to the list of tunes that showcased Paula’s skillset.
Since the release of “Me A The Teacher”, Queen Paula continued to record and release music in the 90s, and parts of the 2000s and 2010s, and even made appearances at events and sessions in recent years. She engaged in a couple lyrical confrontations with fellow Female Deejays, but she has earned her place as one of the foundation Deejays, and inspired a number of Female Artists over the years. This Teacher runs things.
