With one of his hottest projects to date, Trick Daddy released his sixth album on Oct. 26 titled “Thug Matrimony: Married to the Streets.” Coming off of a two-year hiatus since his 2002 album, “Thug Holiday,” the Miami Native returns with his profound lyrics.

Trick Daddy has been known for his hardcore rhymes, and “Thug Matrimony” is no different. In a press release from Atlantic Records, Trick Daddy comments on how most rappers say a lot of words that rhyme but have no meaning, yet he believes he expresses the truth. His lyrics describe life as he has experienced it.

While growing up in the ghetto, Trick Daddy took heed to every lesson given by his parents. Instead of letting his environment define him, he was determined to make the most out of what he was given. From previous records to the present, Trick Daddy continues to tell his life story.

Throughout the album Trick Daddy demonstrates different genres of music while collaborating with a number of musical artist. On the track “These are the Daze,” Trick Daddy portrays an R&B tempo, where he uses a verse from MC Lyte’s “Self Destruction.”

On the track he attempts to influence those in the hood to leave the drugs and violence alone, while letting the kids live and learn. In doing so, teach them that there is more to life than violence, and that they can grow up to be prestigious individuals.

Trick Daddy definitely makes his rock and roll flavor felt on his lead single “Let’s Go,” with a heavy medal sample from Ozzy Osbourne’s “Crazy Train.” The single features ATL’s own LIl’ Jon and one of Chi-towns finest Twista.

In the old-school realm, the southern star collaborates with the Ying Yang Twins and Trina on “Down Wit Da South.” With a re-make of the 80’s hit “No Parking on the Dance Floor,” this trio pays tribute to the dirty south.

While putting his thug mentality to the side, Trick Daddy joins together with Jazze Pha to show his affectionate demeanor in “Eva.” With a Smokey Robinson insert of his classic “Cruisin,” Jazze Pha and Trick Daddy express soothing lyrics on this track.

Trick Daddy continues to rise to the challenge while becoming more successful with each album. With many rising southern stars, this Miami bad boy is determined to be unforgettable. After the release of “Thug Matrimony: Married to the Streets,” Trick Daddy has proven he can do nothing else, but continue to rise to the top.
