'Power' is intense, ... It was total voodoo: A groove that continually builds and turns into a complete trance. |
[Britt was so taken aback by Morgan's fiery sermon-songs that he immediately insisted on including frequent collaborator (as part of the Sylk 130 collective) Tim Motzer in the songwriting and production process. Motzer owns 1K Recordings and has played with everyone from Les Nubians to Patti LaBelle and Philadelphia poet Ursula Rucker. He even has an ambient project in the works called Soft Lunch, under the guise of Tilomo (] King uses it for sex, ... very Ziggy Stardust ? we [Britt's FiveSix imprint] are actually trying to license it to a major label. |

Well, he did sell a lot of records, ... I'd rather hear Sister Gertrude in the Top 10 than the new Ludacris. I want us to release pop records, but in the sense of our pop ? just good songs with longevity that people can sing. Whatever happens, we're embarking on a heavy journey the next few years. |
