It's because I have this producer, Paul Brown, and it's my first time working with him. Knowing where I come from, knowing what touches me, knowing what I'm capable of doing even though I may not do it all the time. I mean it is swamp funk. That is so funky, it stinks. Paul was just wonderful in finding that stuff and having a great sense of urban-ness around him and was able to bring that to the record.
Tomorrow Today is a song and a whole notion about an album project.
I just wanted to get to certain notions about things that we need to be thinking about, especially during this time when we just passed from 1999 to 2000. Those are the things that I wanted to get to in this album. So it's more or less some of that. That was the idea. Tomorrow Today had been the title song for the album for four years.
