I dig Tricky quite a lot as well, but as for the point about actually
writing music: Take a closer look at the liner notes. I can't say this
is true for every track which says "contains elements of...", but in
several cases I know the original sources. The samples are as obvious and
wholesale as NWA using the "Amen, Brother" break -- or to sink really low,
Vanilla Ice. "Makes Me Wanna Die" is a chilling song that gives me
goosebumps whenever I hear it, but the bulk of it comes directly from
an Eric B. & Rakim beat. I don't say this to diminish the end result or
Tricky's talent, but only to make the specific point above.
Does anyone else find Bjork tremendously attractive? Please don't tell me
I'm alone on that... ;-)
