All True! I visited the Matmoses at the studio when they were writting that album with Bjork, and basically Drew said how she basically did most of the music and then she would collaborate with them after that. They played me some of the early versions of the songs, and it would be like "here's my version, here's her version" and they would be totally different. She really does about 80-90% of the production herself (from what I saw). It really was amazing how much stuff (money, time, general support) she gave them and everyone who works with her. I wish every world reknown popstar took such and active interest in helping the next generation of musicians....
