It is too bad about the minuscule amount of money that Coldcut got
payed for the mix of "Paid In Full", but I hope you aren't implying that
Eric B. & Rakim aren't "cool" because of this. They are one of the true
innovators in hip-hop IMO. _Paid In Full_ and _Follow the Leader_ are
classics! Rakim's style has influenced many -- Paris and Da Germ (on
Shadow) come immediately to mind. Coldcut are definitely great and I'm
continually amazed by their own work and remixes for others, but to take
away credit from EB&R is way off.
