Neneh Cherry (misscherrylala) looks back on the boundary-busting RawLikeSushi album
Similar to how her youngest daughter is setting fire to the BBC airwaves, Neneh felt empowered by the music of Janet Jackson and Madonna, but recognized the malleability of the root style and expanded upon it, looking at the rise of women in the hip-hop game as a perfect means to modify a sound entirely her own.
"I wound up managing Neneh because we didn't have any money to pay a proper manager. And then Massive Attack was heading in the same direction, so I ended up producing and managing them as well," McVey explains to Billboard. "We all had this house that we used to live in and all the groups used to come and stay there and we had the management office in there as well, so it was chaos.
"We met when we went to see Fridge at 12 Bar on Denmark Street, which is the smallest club in London," McVey explains about their history with Hebden. "There are usually more people onstage than there are in the audience. And then years later, I was meeting him with the team that runs Smalltown Supersound and talked with him about doing the 'Dream Baby Dream' remix foralbum.
