About Tairrie B
- Tairrie B (born Theresa Beth; January 18, 1965 in Anaheim, California) is an American singer and rapper. Tairrie B started her music career as part of the female dance group Bardeux.
- After the release of their debut single, "Three-Time Lover", in 1987, she left the group.
- Under the tutelage of Eazy-E, she was later signed to his label Ruthless Records (under a new imprint called Comptown Records) and released her first album, Power of a Woman, which, unlike usual Ruthless fare, was distributed by MCA Records.
- Tairrie B alleges she was assaulted by Dr.
- Dre at the 1990 Grammy Awards for not collaborating with him on her first album: "Everyone with NWA – like Above the Law and The D.O.C.
- – whenever they do an album, all of the guys appear on the last track.
- So they were going to do that with me at one point and Ice Cube was gonna write lyrics to a track called 'I Ain't Your Bitch'." She refused, and rewrote the track as a diatribe against her labelmates.
- When Dr.
- Dre heard the track, he turned up at the awards ceremony party, where he punched Tairrie "twice – once in the mouth and once in the eye.
- He hit me like Tyson, but I took it – I don't know how."It turned out to be the only Comptown Records album release.
- Tairrie B later began working on her second full-length album Single White Female, but before releasing it decided to change her musical direction away from rap.
- After being released from her contract by Eazy-E, just a few weeks before his 1995 death, she then formed Manhole (later renamed Tura Satana), My Ruin and LVRS. In December 2008, Tairrie B married her long-time partner and guitarist of My Ruin Mick Murphy.
- She stated in the band's Myspace blog that she had changed her last name to Murphy, but would continue to use the name Tairrie B in music. In August 2015, Tairrie B returned to her rap roots with her third studio rap album Vintage Curses.
- On October 30, 2015, cult director John Waters commented on Tairrie B’s rap career and legacy in his interview with Iggy Pop on BBC Radio 6 just before playing "Ruthless Bitch" saying, "..she was very much a part of the story, she was the first white girl rapper I remember."
