875. Tricky - Maxinquaye


This was one of the first trip hop cds I got (along with Dummy) - Chad introduced this to me with the mention of the Pumpkins sample. What Tricky lacks in vocal range he makes up for in style - when signing he mainly just whispers or mumbles like a cigarette crackling. Bringing in other vocalists saves the album from being a 'good start' to 'well done'... the album manages to keep itself very interesting and to me is his best release so far.

fuck you in,
tuck you in,
suck you in.
