Ah, that moment in the mid-'90s, when I simultaneously discovered Tricky, Massive Attack, Portishead, Autechre, The Orb, Orbital, Aphex Twin, U-ziq, Meat Beat Manifesto, Mouse on Mars and Ultramarine. Too good to believe. Now years can pass without any interesting, not to mention electrifying music.
+PapuStronk The trickster is not underrated at all, in my opinion. I'm glad he's not mainstream. I'm glad he's unique, and that not many people know of him. I've been listening to this album, Maxinquaye, since I was 12. Found it in my brother's room, where I used to listen to his records and CDs. He was a music buff, and for that I'm grateful to this day. That's nearly 20 years, well over a lifetime for me. So yeah, he's not underrated in MY opinion. (:
PapuStronk I start to think that when people says "underrated" they actually mean "not famous". I dont care about music being famous. Most of the stuff I like it's not mainstream. The mainstream is a big scam. I mean some good music is mainstream but the whole thing about fame is make believe and prefab business. Music outside mainstream is not underrated and always alive. Everybody who knows Tricky know he is a genius.
People just like to make the statement for lack of anything to say. There's one in every thread who likes the sound of the word "underrated" and has no idea what it means and they are talking about. Like OP.
Um,have you heard Sun Down and seen the video?? He did kinda get off track for a little while there,but he's got a bunch of newer songs that are more like his old stuff...imo,anyway. ☺
Hell yea. I was just asking some people on the previous number for recommendations cuz im kinda new to trip hop. I found MA Mezzanine and Portishead Dummy and got hooked. I dig numbers with female vocals and the one cat who sings on "Angel". I knew of Topley Bird from MA and of course loved her so this record is turning out PERFECT for me. I don't know what it is about the female vocals on these beats but its nasty. Love it. So i agree with the 3 records being the Holy Trinity lol. And on a rainy day even better. Then again for me theres nothing better than a rainy day. Add a "cuppa" as yal in the UK say and its 👌👌👌. Peace
We are unique genetically, our experiences, moods etc alter our perception of music, the mirror of live in itself. I m French and like a homeless, wander using youtube

I'm 5 years away from that weed. Terrible drug. Weakens the mind so much. XTC is still a drug I miss sometimes but that's about it. Weed ? Fuck that shit. Eats the mind and soul away like termites
I'm a recovering alcoholic and drug addict for 6 years now. I haven't even had a cigarette in 5 years, When I drank and drugged, I bummed and stole money for them. Those chemicals and drugs destroyed me. Now I'm doing a master's degree. Since It took the poisons out of my system, it has allowed me to turn my life around 360%. The point you are making dear is an existential truth. Alcohol and drug dependency are but a symptom of a far deeper malaise with the self. I did it to myself and have taken responsibilty for those actions. However, the fact remains that for some, alcohol and drugs are what fuel that self destructive fire within,. I personally think hashish and weed are the two most overrated of all time. I have met far far more people who have negative shit to say about the drug. I have met many who would have extolled the virtues of it endlessly and boringly for years for them too later 'give it up' as they felt it had robbed them of much of their ambition, drive and sense of adventure. If you have a different opinion, that is fine but I can assure you, my mind and soul would NOT have been eaten away by Hashish and weed had I never had become addicted to it. If you don't care to accept this point, you can go and Kiss my firm left buttock dear. .
From this VERY day... It is 25 years since Maxinquaye (with this) was released. Sooo, from now (date of writing this) to then it's nearly the same amount of time as it was from then to saaaaay, Woodstock. Jeez do I feel OOHHH-LD. (Yes I've been listening to this since it first came out, when I was a senior in HS)
Apparently Topley was only 15 when she first sang with the kid. This is the one massive attack turned down, which lead him on to his solo career. Tricky is a fucking legend.

Discovered tricky watching him on the American TV show ‘girlfriends’ I heard his accent and thought “what a terrible British accent” turns out he’s actually British!
Oh Tricky. How we go back. Way back when to my first deep K hole, this was the sound track and the most amazing visuals came right along with. Cheers mate!

Tricky is a titan of Trip Hop. Trip Hop in general is such a wonderful genre.
Production on this track is light years ahead.
I just discovered this amazing artist and I feel like I just found some unimaginable hidden treasure.
Welcome to the beautiful world
Trip Hop baby.
you did my friend
YamiNoSensei13 This album and Breath from Another by Esthero are my two favorites from the 90’s.
Still sounds as good as it did 20 years ago
I'm happy he survived the explosion from Zorg and became a musician

it will his grandson

so many people are missing out on the strange and tragically beautiful being that is, tricky.
Yup
Tricky is maybe the best artist at the moment, i don't care people don't know that yet
***** he used to be, his newer stuff is kind of weak.
Ze Pereira I agree.
Um,have you heard Sun Down and seen the video?? He did kinda get off track for a little while there,but he's got a bunch of newer songs that are more like his old stuff...imo,anyway. ☺
The only album that makes me feel high when I'm not.
You got something here, for sure 😉 I feel the f"cking same
Wow! That's kinda strange, especially if you keep in mind the meaning and theme of the album!
@@trakzerak735 Which is what, do you think?
@@mollistan The tracks from the album are dark with their lyrics and they are mostly about sexuality, drug culture, depression and such...
i tried listening to this album when i was really drunk and high, got to the second song and then i threw up in the shower
Love u Tricky...thanks for my adolescence...41...now....
Tricky's music stole my
Christ!!! When I hear Maxinquaye, Nearly God and Pre-Millenium Tension albums, I flip out. So good. Back when music was at a creative peak.
completely agree !!
Discovering Tricky was awesome for me love the emotion and the production
This album and Portishead - Dummy go hand in hand with me. Listen to on a dark, cold rainy fall day for the best feels.
Hell round the corner ....
You can add Mezzanine by Massive attack; then you have the holy trinity of Trip Hop!

I love Tricky's dark and seductive sound and lyrics. They are masters of a very dark power of language and sound. Real sorcerers and poets. Respect.
xxx miss this trip hop period
Tricky is the soundtrack of my life.
This album, never ages, and is never anything less than unadulterated brilliance from start to finish!
This song will always be timeless
Bristol , spent lot of time in the 90's raving , the music , culture and street art ..the true dance capital of england .
Her lyrics are so gentle and effortless
Столько сколько мы сожрали в 90е и 2000е всё тут отражённо , сколько всего сделано зря ))) но прекрасное вечно
holy shit, I never noticed the blade runner "lemme tell you bout my mother" snippet in there
superb
Among trip hop bladerunner samples are so common haha. Take Unkle-Main Theme for example, or The Future sound of london "My kingdom" track
Martina Topley Bird ❤

I was so in love with her.....I was also in love with weed & playing Mario cart at the time whilst listening to this.
Same here man. Think she was like 17 or some shit at the time. I was 14 or so and she absolutely won me over with her voice.
She was in her early/mid 20s when this came out. I was at uni. She was on Jules Holland. I remember seeing that too. Just beautiful.

Timeless. Bought the cd in 94 - still generates who's that questions.
What a talent. This song almost puts you into a hypnotic trance.
2:25 Leon from 'Bladerunner': " let me tell you about my mother."
Genius!
Just discovered Tricky and can’t get enough, very hypnotic 😒
Amazing, atmospheric trip hop! Still sounds fkng amazing after so many decades down the line!!
The real trip hop!
+Daisy Marchese "trick hop"
Lo vi en la Ciudad de México, en el plaza condesa en octubre de 2018. Jamás lo olvidare
Timeless❤
ah man so sick... ´96 highschool memories droping out
1996 when I first heard this 💜
still ingenious, Tricky with his dense speaking darkness and Martina with her laconic erotic vocals.
Good memories, I remember helping to spread the word on this one back in the day when I was 14. BRISTOL for real. Big up Tricky :)
Never knew until now that this dude was a trip-hop musician. He appeared in ''The Fifth Element'' movie. Pure genius.
Каждый бы так выражал своё любимое дело.отличная команда!!СПС за полученное удовольствие.
Tricky, an underrated treasure 💕
massive attack and tricky were both huge in the uk, and broke other areas too, not really underrated, but great nevertheless.
Her voice is amazing.....
Damn, forgot how magical and lush this stuff was.
My new discovery. priceless musical experience
Apparently Topley was only 15 when she first sang with the kid.
This is the one massive attack turned down, which lead him on to his solo career.
Tricky is a fucking legend.
This is it. One of the best albums perhaps top 50: Maxinquaye. Yes, I do listen to mainly extreme metal. Please appreciate timeless modern music.
heard this in 01 not knowing there was a video. tricky the best
Take a little yellow sunshine and go deep into this music
Stay off the dog food kids
Adore this song!!
Tricky = Legend
This is my jam. Tricky, we are waiting for you in the West Coast!!
They cut so many excellent tracks from Maxinequaye... this is my favourite! ♥
Aftermath and Overcome are underrated, and should have a much higher ranking on lists, much higher view and "like" counts.
LOVE TRICKY! Blessed!
Bought "Angels with Dirty faces" in 1999.... I was 15 - it changed my life , seriously
Nostalgia is a hell of a drug.......
Charming music! Every track- hit! Super! Bravo! Takes the soul! Thank you!
Just when I thought I could not be stopped.
This video is so 1995, I love it
trick and martina still look like they did back then too. ageless
To hell with dope… this is all you need! Again a masterpiece of a true artist
