OMG! Look at all the nice things that people are saying about us:
"[Coco Dame's] fusion of bravado and vulnerability, erotic appetite and emotional yearning, is catchy, cheap, and right down my alley." Grade: A MINUS
- Robert Christgau
MSN Music (http://music.msn.com) - Consumer Guide

"They've emerged out from suburban-now-urban dormlife with such untouched, pure vision that even big-rock press has weighed in on their promising, self-released first EP The Ol' Reach-around."
- Dan Weiss
The Village Voice: Sound of the City Blog

"Oh!' she-bops along on synth squelches as Dame employs a spunky singing voice to reminisce with bloodshot eyes about her misspent youth. And on the stellar breakup ballad ÒLonely, Lonely,Ó she shows off an old-school flow and a downtown chirp while nursing a hangover after a night of being licked."
-ryan dombal
Blender Magazine

"'Oh!' is one of the funnest songs I've heard this year and it's by a little indie pop group in New York City called Menya - who are attracting a lot of attention with their spunky homeade blend of electronic pop with danceable hip-hop."
-Raj Rudolph
electroqueer.com

"Their songs are absurdly catchy, ranging from the ultra provocative D.T.F. (take a guess on what that stands for) to the poppy and radio-friendly Lonely, Lonely."
- Matt Pagirsky
The Daily Chorus

The Ol' Reacharound EP: Dean's List 2008: Number 18
- Robert Christgau
http://www.robertchristgau.com/

"They combine techno beats with relentless rap, weaving in some pop vocals to round out the sound. [...] But it is their raunchy lyrics about girl-on-girl action and a few choice body parts that really get the crowd going."
-Sara Gates
Washington Square News

"At times light and whimsical, and other times raw and outspoken, MenyaÕs sound is reminiscent of every artist from Peaches to The Notorious B.I.G. ÒOh!Ó, from their EP The OlÕ Reach Around, is a fun, upbeat track and a prime example of their unique flavor."
The Supermelon

"Their debut EP is lyrically, and musically, gloriously filthy. ÔDTFÕ, ÔRipeÕ and ÔWeÕre In the SuburbsÕ are brilliant pieces of sexy, potty-mouthed, crunky electro-hop. In contrast the other three tracks that make up The OlÕ Reach-Around are wonderfully sweet sounding. On ÔOh!Õ, ÔLonely, LonelyÕ and ÔSuicide QueenÕ they suddenly seem to come over all indie-pop. That is, with a whole heap of catchy electro."
-paul bond
Analogue Magazine

"Singer Coco Dame is sentimental one minute, brash the next, as Good Goose's spare but room-filling beats coax playful and sexy come-ons from her [...] "Oh!" rides a glowing summery hook that belies its tale of wistful nostalgia, and "Lonely Lonely" reveals a broken heart beating beneath sweat-soaked skin."
- michael gallucci
The Cleveland Scene

"I knew just from a photo of this group that I would love them, and when I saw that they categorised themselves as Pop/Hip-hop/Electro on MySpace, I was even more certain. I'm a sucker for poptastic girl-rap and the addition of electro is all the better."
http://poptastic.blogspot.com/

ÒBlending rap, glam, pop, electro, funk and gold lamŽ tights, Menya combined dj'd electro goodness with a big female lead presence all in a tiny package. It's rare to find an act like this that distinguishes itself from the hordes of cookie cutter copycats that so long to be Crystal Castles, Heartsrevolution, and the like...but Menya proves that they have the formula down for success.
