here's the problem that prodigy faces with getting new stuff out on a major record label.before they had always outnumbered,never outgunned released.they were doing their own thing as far as how the music was going to sound and what they were wanting to do with the shows and where they were going to play at.that was the case until they had that mega-huge hit firestarter.once that song was released and the general public got ahold of it,the record exec.'s started to tell them what it was they wanted them to do and in what direction they were wanting them go.liam howlett was not at all about going to listen to and do that shit.so on the next album,always outnumbered,never outgunned,he did the music,arrangement,and style all on his own and in a spiteful way to the record label.he pretty much told them to go fuck themselves because he was not about to sell out the name,himself,music,sound,or band for a bunch of tie-wearing fucks.when that happened,that label dropped them.that was fine with liam because he could go back to playing @ low-key venues and keeping it the way he likes it....for the real followers and likers of prodigy.however,this may work for liam and prodigy,but it makes it hard for people to get their hands on any new stuff by the group.i personally am glad that they kept it like it was in the beginning.i would still like to come across more new prodigy,but i want liam to make the music he needs to make it because when an artist changes for someone or something other than themselves,it makes the music suffer as well.look at STP for a prime example of what i am talking about.
