Twiggi plots her comeback
TWIGGI... my music is a message now, I am basically going through arenaissance

Twiggi plots her comeback

MONTEGO BAY, St James — Twiggi, the female lovers’ rock songstress back in the 1990’s, is set to restart her musical career and transition onto an inspirational plateau.

“I am at a stage where my music is a message now. I am basically going through a renaissance. I’m still doing love songs because everybody falls in love… no matter who they are and where they are from. No matter what race, denomination or culture,” Twiggi argued.

However, the female performer was quick to explain that she does not compose raunchy material.

“The love songs I do are more in a pure form. No sexual connotations and nothing idolising men too much. Just talking about how lovely love is,” she quipped.

She is best known for romantic songs such as I Want Your Love, It’s Too Late Where Did The Love Go’ a cover of Tears on My Pillow and others on the Penthouse Label in the mid 1990’s.

But shortly after that, she started travelling back and forth from the Jamaican shores to the USA where she is temporarily based.

During this time, however, she has not been idle. In fact she has since produced a new album of reggae music fused with other genres, titled The Sun Shines Through and other singles.

She also has two compilations featuring I look to You, a Whitney Houston cover on the Joe Farzier label; and I am Flying on the Jasfar Label which are doing well outside of Jamaica.

Currently Twiggi, whose real name is Marie Gittens hails from Kingston, and is in the island promoting her album as well as busy recording in the studios.

“Just getting back into the Jamaica connection doing promotions and some recordings with some of the younger generation,” Twiggi explained.

The singer/songwriter, is also set to embark on the film industry. But, she declined to give further details of her motion picture ambitions.

“I am considering working on a reality television series for the future. I am not at liberty to give too much information. But I am working on some sound tracks for upcoming films with some Europeans on these projects,” Twiggi revealed.
