Debut - Björk
Right after her breakup with The Sugarcubes, Björk kicked off her solo career in 1993, with her appropriately enough titled Debut. Her actual debut album was released in 1977, simply titled Björk, but that was when she was still in music school, well before the heady days of The Sugarcubes fame.Soul II Soul Producer Nellee Hooper brought a dance edge to the record, that, matched with Björk's unmistakable voice, provided her with an international hit record.
While the singles were gaining approval on the underground dance-floor scene, the accompanying music videos to the singles also wowed critics, Human Behaviour, Venus As A Boy, Play Dead, Big Time Sensuality, and Violently Happy all showing the singers tricky slightly wacky side in different lights, and heralding a collaborative and artistic approach to her work that continues today.
