| | NILE RODGERS BIO. |
| | Rodgers recorded two solo albums over the course of the 1980s and briefly formed a group known as Outloud, which released a self-titled album in 1987. | | | Rodgers, who considers himself first and foremost a jazz guitarist, has also released three recordings under his own name; but Rodgers's talents extend into other creative realms. | | | A new album, Chicism, took a year to record and went through several creative transformations, as Rodgers and Edwards largely discarded the rap-and-sample techniques of early 1990s dance music in favor of the classic Chic style. |

| | Nile Rodgers' guitar break on the title track is outrageously good, and the track is insanely energetic. | | | This was the first album that Nile and Nard produced in which they didn't write all the songs. | | | Yet Nile claims "Our concept was to make it more avant-garde, and their concept was to make it a little bit more accessible and commercial."

| | Instead of making a third solo album, Rodgers formed a stylistic crossover band with Philippe Saisse (keyboards, vocals) and Felicia Collins (guitar, vocals). | | | Complete with 3-D cover (but no glasses), B-Movie Matinee reflects Rodgers' cinematic tastes, offering such promising referents as "Plan-9," "Doll Squad" and "The Face in the Window." Unfortunately, while the music is unassailable (especially Jimmy Bralower's precision drumming and Rodgers' snappy guitar work), the thankfully smug-free lyrics aren't half as good as the titles. | | | The neatest touch on the record is the mass of chorus vocals sung with a drum machine "at P.S. 111 playground right after school," according to the sleeve notes. |

| | Whether it was deliberate or not for this Lem Springsteen and Joe Ciafone (Mood II Swing) production, and the rhythm guitar on the chorus does sound very 'Niles', this really captures the spirit of some of the eighties Chic and solo Nile Rodgers work. | | | The deliberate irrevence of the lyrics, the construction of the chords and the fact that halfway through they drop what sounds like a sample of Niles guitar point towards another homage. | | | Released the same year as the tragic death of Bernard Edwards, Jay Kay may have intended this somewhat blatant rip off of Chic, particularly in the string arrangements, to be a tribute. |
