The Me N Ma Girls (formerly known as The Tiger Girls) is the first all-girl pop hip hop dance ensemble from Myanmar discovered by Australian dancer Nicole "Nikki" May and Burmese entrepreneur U Moe Kyaw in 2010.[2][3][4] The group currently consists of four Burmese women: Ah Moon, Cha Cha, Htike Htike (pronounced as "Tie Tie"), and Kimi. The girls released their first cover album in 2010, "Year of the Tiger Girls."[5] In 2011, the group split from Kyaw and was renamed as the "Me N Ma Girls.In 2016, the group renamed again "Me N Ma Girls" to "MyaNmar Girls"[6]
As The Me N Ma Girls grew in popularity, their views regarding censorship and other social issues took center stage.[7] The Group entered the international stage and gained notoriety when they debuted their country's first overtly political song Come Back Home, in May 2012 during a visit from then United States Ambassador-at-Large for Global Women's Issues Melanne Verveer in the Office on Global Women's Issues.[8][9] Shortly after their appearance, their story was made into a documentary, Miss Nikki and the Tiger Girls, and was directed by the award-winning director, Juliet Lamont.[10][11][12] The group signed with the independent American music label, Power Music of Los Angeles, California — the first for any pop and hip hop band from Myanmar.[13][14]
