Guilty Pleasure: Trick Daddy
Nothing new here. Just a classic artist who you love to love, but would never try to defend his lyrics. Maurice Young, better known as Trick Daddy, has an admittedly foul mouth. I mean come on, even Trick’s most conscious tunes like “America” have at least a couple lines in them that you wouldn’t wanna repeat in a comparative literature lecture. And the most egregious offenders, well, some of them could even make a group of grown men uncomfortable. Then again, Trick Daddy Dollars did make his debut on an Uncle Luke record, so what do you expect?
But none the less, Trick Daddy is one of those artists I will always enjoy. His lyrics are so unique, his voice so authentic, and his personality so magnetic, I am willing to forget about all the disagreements I have with him over substance and lyrical content. His flow is one of a kind, and at lends itself to a listening experience that can’t be duplicated anywhere else. He is Hip Hop down to his flip flops and socks. And even if you would hate for your kids to listen to Trick, Trick loves the kids. So you gotta send a little love his way in return. His webpage page is linked below, stop on by and show him why we appreciate his work.
