Tricky - 'Council Estate' (2008)

The first single from Tricky's forthcoming album Knowle West Boy.

Council Estate is just me... that song is the upbringing me and friends had. It's the first single I've ever done with just me on vocals. I couldn't whisper that song. I had to come out of myself and do a loud, screaming vocal. I wanted to be a proper frontman on that one.' --Tricky on Council Estate.Domino Recording Company is an independent record label founded in 1993. Subscribe to Domino: http://goo.gl/kdcyu

Tricky is awesome.

English trip hop owns the american hip hop scene.

@thebenanderson Yeah Allflaws are from Bristol to. Real Deep stuff.

Like Earthling too. Remember their tunes from the 90s.

Tricky is fucking awesome. But I don't think he would be proud to be assimilated to the Trip Hop scene, because he reject this idea. Trip hop is the name chosen by the medias. But for sure, Trip-Hop rocks !

yes he did admit he sampled this from roads

Wat a load of shit

this has to be the most pedantic thing i've ever posted but at the very beginning (between 2 and 4 seconds in) it sounds like Portishead - Roads

Hah, Yes! I heard this song on Season 2 Episode 5 - Chuck Versus Tom Sawyer, just now. Had to Google the lyrics!

@chicfix1 thought Allflaws was from London? Try Dub Mafia. Great Bristol band

That's like comparing Socrates with Joe six-pack. UK trip hop actually IS music, and pretty damn good music. American hip hop is a just a sex driven simplistic way for business men to exploit people like Justin Bieber and turn a multi million dollar profit.
