With his philosophy of anything goes, Backini has traded the well trodden route of sampling funk 45's in favour of slipping between the sheets with the likes of the Andrews Sisters.
Weaving an elegant web of lush samples and sonics Backini manages to evoke images of 1940's big bands, 50's bebop and 70's pop divas.The feelgood factor of his work is never far away, but there's a distinctly ironic darkness to the overall vibe.
Backini has developed the sample-based sound of his debut album to incorporate rappers, guitarists, and the proverbial kitsch-in-sink, but keeps to his catchy, hummable manifesto.
Cream
Backini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Without a warning
I feel a surge of deep satisfaction
Comes in the morning
Without a warning
Oh, you're nothing but a fool, buddy
(Fool)
Comes in the morning
Without a warning
Oh, you're nothing but a fool, buddy
(Fool)
I have always been a woman
I have always been a woman
Comes in the morning
Comes in the morning
Without a warning
I feel a surge of deep satisfaction
Comes in the morning
Without a warning
Oh, you're nothing but a fool, buddy
(Fool)
The lyrics of Backini's "Cream" describe a sudden surge of deep satisfaction that comes unexpectedly. The lines "Comes in the morning, without a warning" depict the suddenness of this feeling. The singer feels a sense of fulfillment and completeness through this surge. The repetition of the line "Oh, you're nothing but a fool, buddy" makes it seem as though the singer is addressing someone who may have doubted or belittled them before.
The last two lines "I have always been a woman, Comes in the morning" signify a sense of empowerment and self-awareness. It asserts that nothing has changed about the singer's identity or their experience of being a woman, and yet this surge of satisfaction is something they can solely claim as their own. The mention of gender identity could also imply the societal expectations placed on women to suppress their emotions, as if this surge is something they should not be feeling or expressing.
Overall, Backini's "Cream" portrays a sense of sudden empowerment and self-acceptance through a surge of deep satisfaction, while also hinting at societal expectations and gender identity issues.

Comes in the morning
A feeling arises within me at daybreak
Without a warning
I don't expect it
I feel a surge of deep satisfaction
A wave of immense joy comes over me
Oh, you're nothing but a fool, buddy
You are naive and foolish, my friend
(Fool)
You don't understand the true nature of this feeling
I have always been a woman
I have always known my true identity
