Somebody please help me to with a song by a group of guys in the 90s

The chorus went like "Big belle she never marry,Bug belle,she no dey shame.

It was a early rap group I think.

Hmn. I think it is the rap group called EMPHASIS.

The group released the song ' Which one you dey?' around 1990/1991. The group was made up of Terry, Mouth MC and Junior. I have attached their image to this post. Cheers.

It was a big hit that year and they sounded like another popular American youth group which made people to mistake them for Americans

They weren't happy when Nas (the American rapper) covered their song "Gone Down Low", but I think they've now gotten back the rights to their songs. The record company made a fortune from the songs and paid them peanuts.

The street is Apogbon. It was called Mr Biggs . I used to take my girlfriend, now my wife , out there to eat pastries of all tribes. That was where the old UAC's snacks bar was moved to start as Mr Biggs . Good old memories.
