Dear List:
I agree that PARTS of Bjorks first album were trippy; problem
is she didnt sustain the mood for the whole thing. By the way now that
you mention it, Sineads O's "I dont want" album(also done by Nelle
hooper who just remixed"6 underground" by the S-PImps) has Trip-hop
elements too. Portishead did it for the whole set and did it well. I
always hated the fact that White rockrits passed over them to Jock
tricky who I think is not nearly as good. This is some kind of sick
guilty reverse racism. I like trick'ys beats but, as a rapper, he reuses
lines on different songs (" juice me juice me dress me up in Stussy")
and actually doesnt say much within a song wordcountwise.
