| Direct from the booming streets of Miami's Liberty City comes the return of the one-and-only hip hop maestro Trick Daddy. Rolling up on the heels of his recent RIAA gold, Billboard top 10 R&B smash, "www.Thug.com", Trick brings true thug philosophy to all-new turbulent tales of southern style street life. Badt-headed and buck wild, Trick Daddy first hit the music scene as one of the lead rappers on Luke's 1996 track, "Scarred." In the fall of 1997 came his solo debut album…"Based On A True Story..."a stand-out introduction highlighted by such tracks as "They Don't Live Long," "Bout a Lotta Thangs," and "Gone With Your Bad Self." The following year came the equally autobiographical and relentless "www.Thug.com", an album that paired the rapper with the likes of Tre+6, Society, J.A.B.A.N., and J-shin. Filled with powerful rhymes taken from life on the blocks of Anyhood, USA, the set stood out on the strength of the hit singles, "Nann" and "Sweatin' Me." since then, the lyrical Picasso has been turning heads with his remarkable contribution on Atlantic's explosive Any Given Sunday soundtrack. For 2000, Trick is ready to treat the world to a never-before-experienced combination of powerful tracks and unsparing, truth-telling rhymes. Prepare yourselves.

Notes & Personnel Info |  | Personnel includes: Trick Daddy, The Lost Tribe, JV, IZM, Tre, Society, Mystikal, Twista, Buddy Roe. | | Audio Mixer: Mr. Seay. | | Recording information: 4 Star Recording Studio. | | Director: Alan Lewis. | | When Trick Daddy emerged onto the hip-hop scene in the late '90s with his slurred rhymes and thugged-out lyrical content, Miami became one of the hottest spots for rap music. His smash hit single, "Nann," from his debut album, WWW.THUG.COM, turned the independent artist into a major star. His follow-up effort, BOOK OF THUGS, only managed to further advance his star. The underground jam "Shut Up" is straight-up Trick Daddy material, a cut that will have fans chanting its chorus over and over again. Trick even offers a surprise to his listeners this time around with the mid-tempo "America," in which the MC shows that thugs like him think about their country as much as they think about partying. |

 | Trick Daddy - Book of Thugs: Chapter AK, Verse 47 - CD By: Thomas Rodriguez - Blogcritics.org Reviews Published on: 4/17/2007 8:44 AM | | A rewarding experience if given enough time. Trick Daddy, born Maurice Young, has amassed quite a bit of both popularity and clout with Rap fans below the Mason Dixon line. With his current stardom, it’s almost ironic to think that six and a half years ago he was simply trying to break himself out beyond that aforementioned imaginary border....read the full review |

| | Professional Reviews | | Rolling Stone (3/30/00, p.68)
- 3 stars out of 5 - "...[It] delivers up-tempo rump shakers and rugged-yet-refined bounce tracks....[His] ability to expose his soft side without losing his hard edge is what distinguishes him from his contemporaries."Spin (4/00, pp.191-2)
- 6 out of 10 - "...Daddy comes with beats harder hitting and more textural than most Miami wig-outs, rapping with authoritative detail about the down and desperate of Liberty City....if Miami need roughneck redemption, this should more than win it." Vibe (3/00, pp.201-2)
- "...packs an improved, more confident rhyme style and production that's both innovative and ear-catching....Trick Daddy's ability to fuse his southern sound foundation with musical elements more often associated with other regions...makes [this album] sparkle..." The Source (3/00, pp.244-6)
- 3.5 mics out of 5 - "...Nearly every MC on BOOK OF THUGS comes off....complimenting the staggering Swizz Beatz-like production....[Trick Daddy] continues to add classic chapters to the book of Miami rap." |
