-	There were numerous clashes between the three members of Massive Attack. As InnerView has stated: "Their combative arguments, tantrums and personality clashes that came to a head during the making of Mezzanine are no secret. The ongoing battle was splashed across the covers of every British music magazine, each making hysterical claims about having "the most revealing story" about the oh-so-sordid situation...Because of their ever-emerging personal differences, ~~the trio refuses to engage the press together"~~	+	[Interview with Robert in The Quietus, 10th Feb 2010]]

-	Massive Attack's next album was titled '''[[Mezzanine]]''' and featured a move to a more guitar based sound. Del Naja has said "it was more my direction on this record." However he has also admitted that he got his own way by "being stubborn, throwing tantrums — the usual fucking childish behaviour." It also features more of Robert's own voice particularly on songs such as '''[[Inertia Creeps]]''' and '''[[Risingson]]'''. ''Inertia Creeps'' was influenced by Del Naja's experiences in Istanbul, and the whole of the album has strong beats from various cultures.	+	Massive Attack's next album was titled '''[[Mezzanine]]''' and featured a move to a more guitar based sound.

	'''[[100th Window]]''', Massive Attack's fourth album, was effectively a solo project for Del Naja. It attracted some mixed reviews, which included some wholehearted praise. ''Stylus Magazine'', for example, said: "100th Window is a masterpiece of its kind" and it "sounds fresh and wondrous."
