...according to our Dave on Thu 19 Nov, 2009.
I had a dream once. Kim Basinger popped out of a cake and she was painted green and she had a copy of the Evening Post sicking out of her bottom... I have no idea what happened afterwards or if the dream had a deeper meaning but listening to the new Tricky vs. South Rakkas Crew single 'C'mon Baby' reminded me of this moment in my life. It has a samba feel to it, or maybe a big band feel to it. It's quite sassy and has a proper bump n' grind beat, it's Tricky but not as we know it... The B side is an instrumental version and offers more sass and less vocals it's out on Domino...Easy now etc....· Tricky’s ‘C’mon Baby’, taken from last year’s critically
acclaimed ‘Knowle West Boy’, is given a booty-shaking
make-over from hot Orlando-based production team,
South Rakkas Crew.
· Born in Jamaica, grown in Toronto, settled in Florida,
South Rakkas Crew come with serious credentials
producing dancehall giants like Beenie Man, Bounty
Killer, Elephant Man and Sizzla not to mention remixes
for the likes of Bob Marley, Beck, Justin Timberlake,
Alicia Keys, Duran Duran and Britney Spears.
· Between all of this they somehow find time to create some
hot dancehall riddims, drawing on key urban influences
from the past four decades, sticking ‘em in a Carribean
blender then throwing in some cosmic keyboard riffs and
killa b-lines for flavour.
· Available on limited edition heavyweight vinyl 7”
(300 copies).
