After gaining prominence with a debut album that all but defined the trip-hop genre, Tricky has come to be recognized as one of the vanguards of a new musical revolution. Influenced as much by torchlight jazz as the beats of hip-hop, his style has literally opened the door to numerous artists that fill the electronica landscape today. Tricky is a unique and enigmatic musician, a celebrity in a genre that has few, and his story has been echoed by the many that have followed after him.
I've seen Tricky once and had pit tickets and it was a musical explosion!
a bit from "Tricky Kid" by Tricky...
"They used to call me tricky-kid
I lived the life they wished they did
I lived the life don't own a car
and now they call me superstar"
