Bjork R&B connections

The big hubbub now in Bjork-land is her recent collaberation with Timbaland, phoning in and pooping out some beats for
Earth Intruders
. Bjork has had a connection with R&b for a long time, starting with Homogenic back in 97 where Missy Eliot declared that the album was hip-hop, and Timbaland sampling her Joga for a remix of Hit 'Em Wit' Da Hee.

And does anyone remember this from Mary J back in '97? A remix vid-joe of Everything. A totally wierd mish mash of expensive effects, really cheap C&C Music Factory editing/effects, and evant-guard images. All to promote a remix of a song that wasn't even on the album. *Nance Grace voice* What is the real story?


She got on the bjork love by borrowing the Space-Geisha look from Homogenic.




And something tells me Bjork would approve of the disturbing Mary J chandelier of heads thingy.

Seriously, we love the Bjork and all... but THAT's the first single from the new album??? It sounds like Frank Zappa meets the Residents.

Don't forget her collab with P-Diddy.

I LOVE the new single, it's a welcome return to form - a rythmic pop collision from hell. She let Matthew Barney get the better of her on Medulla.
