Any smart-asses want to offer up "Lady Marmalade"? Someone's probably doing it as I submit this post.
I have NO idea what the creative fuel was behind the Live/Tricky collaborations, but those P. Diddy braintrusts seem to be fueled primarily by the all-mighty dollar, which is just not kosher.
The Alanis Morrissette / Dave Matthews Band collaboration ("Don't Drink the Water") was utterly pointless, since Alanis' voice is hidden on the final 30 seconds of the track (which is awful in the most bombastic, pretentious, unaware fashion). And I STILL can't hear Q-Tip on "Sucka Nigga".

LFO feat. MOP... i have not heard this but the idea seems offensive enough. Is this supposed to be "interesting"?
Perhaps somebody will mention Beck and Air, but this bone isnt mine to pick.

It's all about marketing (of course) - hip hook-ups are the way product is cut-through the media mob. What we have is an arms race of collaboration - more fun than the music, which is incidental in any case.

An awful collaboration that I would love would be Jay-Z/Aphex Twin.
But where else has Jay-Z put out? Am I missin' something?
