Suradnja Vrhunskih Glazbenika

Crno-bijeli svijet Costella i the Rootsa


Costellove deklamacije sjajno su legle na iskričavi R&B i gorljivi soul i funk

Aleksandar Dragaš

Na prvi pogled teško je zamisliti - unatoč nizu “bizarnih” suradnji i dueta - čudniju kolaboraciju od ove između Elvisa Costella i The Rootsa. Costello je bijeli, naraciji sklon kantautor izrastao iz punka i novog vala, a The Roots crnački hip-hop sastav ponikao u 90-ima. Odavno, Bogu hvala, nema rasne segregacije, ali ordinarni dance singlovi bijelih pop pjevačica i crnih repera, crnih R&B diva i bijelih DJ-a ili dueti poput onog Lady Gage i Beyonce tek su mlaka vodica konzumerističkog popa. Pri pomisli na pravu transžanrovsku i međurasnu suradnju bijelih i crnih renomiranih izvođača, teško se sjetiti jedne ovakve kakva je “pala” između Costella i The Rootsa. Zapravo, jednu sličnu suradnju, ali uz manje medijske pozornosti, relativno nedavno imao je baš Elvis Costello na albumu “The River In Reverse” s njuorlinškim blues pijanistom Allenom Toussaintom. Tu i tamo još bi se našla neka slična suradnja bjelačkih i crnačkih glazbenika, ali ovako zvučna teško jer Costello jest jedan od opravdano najuglednijih kantautora posljednjih tri i pol desetljeća, a The Roots najvibrantniji i najeklektičniji hip-hop izvođač unatrag dvadeset godina.

Kad se stvari tako sagledaju, teško je zamisliti intrigantniju pa i logičniju transžanrovsku i međurasnu suradnju. Naime, Costello je u svojoj karijeri “prosurfao” nizom žanrova u rasponu od izrazito bjelačkih poput punka i countryja do crnačkih poput soula, bilo ga je i u jazzu i klasici, a The Roots su otpočetka karijere bili otvoreni raznolikim glazbenim utjecajima, i crnim i bijelim, te se etablirali kao najvažniji hip-hop bend koji doista svira na albumima i koncertima.

Nadalje, Costello i Questlove pravi su “nerdovi” pop kulture, odnosno vrhunski poznavatelji crnačke i bjelačke popularne glazbe, strastveni diskofili i umjetnici koji se vole poigravati raznim žanrovima.

Ta strast ka raznorodnoj glazbi i njezinim “hibridima” osnovno je pogonsko gorivo maštovitog albuma na kojem se bjeloputi Costello doima poput frontmena crnoputih The Rootsa između kojih je do ideje o suradnji došlo nakon nastupa Costella na Jimmy Fallon Showu u kojem su The Roots jedno vrijeme bili “kućni bend”. Kako su se obostrano oduševili tim televizijskim sessionom, a usto su i sociopolitički angažirani izvođači kojima su i roditelji - kako Costellu, tako Questloveu - bili glazbenici ili vezani uz glazbu, tako su otkrili da imaju mnogo toga zajedničkog. Nije Costello, naravno, “prorepao”, ali njegove deklamacije sjajno su legle na iskričav R&B, gorljivi soul i sinkopirani funk The Rootsa, prožetim utjecajima ska, reggae i dub glazbe. S druge strane, The Roots sjajno funkcioniraju kao prateći bend Elvisa Costella, čak i u odjavnoj baladi “If I Could Believe”.

Kako je u ideji bilo nemoguće izbjeći “eksperimentatorsku” narav projekta, nešto je od toga ostalo i u egzekuciji, ali jači je duh prirodnog savezništva Elvisa Costella i The Rootsa koji su ostvarili jedan od najuvjerljivijih albuma u ionako impresivnim karijerama. I ne samo to, “Wise Up Ghost” je album kakav Prince, nažalost, više ne uspijeva snimiti. Podsjetnika radi, Elvisu Costellu je 59 godina, a poduzeo je riskantan potez kakvog se mnogi mlađi izvođači ne usuđuju povući ili ih ne znaju odigrati.

Cooperation top musicians

Black-and-white world of Costello and The Roots

Costello declamation great lie down on the sparkling R & B and ardent soul and funk

At first glance it is hard to imagine - despite a series of "bizarre" cooperation and duets - so strange a collaboration as this between Elvis Costello and The Roots. Costello is white, narration tends songwriter grew out of punk and new wave, and The Roots a black hip-hop band originated in the 90's. It has long, thank God, there is no racial segregation, but ordinarily dance singles white pop singer and rapper black, black R & B diva and white DJs or duets like the Lady Gaga and Beyonce are only lukewarm guidance consumerist pop. When you think of the right transžanrovsku and interracial cooperation white and black renowned artist, it is hard to remember what this one is "dropped" between Costello and The Roots.

Furthermore, Costello and Questlove real "nerd" pop culture, and top connoisseurs of white and black popular music, passionate music-lovers and artists who like to play with different genres.

The passion towards music and its diverse area of ​​"hybrid" is the basic fuel imaginative album which is white-skinned Costello looks like a black-skinned frontman The Roots among which is the idea of ​​collaboration occurred after the onset of the Costello Jimmy Fallon Show in which the Roots one time were "house band".
