If one track deserved to be a standard for the feminist point of view in the end eighties was this one, just pay attention to the lyrics. "Useless" by Marshall Jefferson & Kym Mazelle was recorded in England. Marshall was very good at feeling where Kym was coming from emotionally back then, and felt she was pretty pissed off. There's a lot of stuff on that track that Jefferson had to leave off because Kym got a little too pissed off; he felt heard feelings were properly conveyed by what they laid down. The importance of this acappella cannot be questioned and, as a natural consequence, it was sampled by several producers later such as Anticappella - 2SQR231 (1991) and Hyper On Experience on "Deaf In The Family" EP from 1993, as well as "Lords Of The Null Lines (The Extremely Bootlegged Remixes)", 1994. This song naturally turned out into a feminism standard-type; Kym Mazelle said about "Useless" she was just pissed off at the time she recorded - according to her, it was an 'unrequited love' kind of song, but as a matter of fact it didn't mean she was angry with all the men, just some of them... "Definitely not Marshall!", she joyfully declared about her friend and production partner.
