Tricky on BBC Radio 1

 Amazingly touching interview with Tricky on BBC Radio 1.

The super talented rapper is talking about his own label, his independence and his new E.P., Obia.

But he is also very open-hearted about reunited with his father in Bristol and being about to spend his first christmas with him in 48 years...

You can also here the fantastic tracks he produced for the E.P., including a collaboration with London rapper CasIsDead and another one - under the name of EuanWhosArmy - with 3D from Massive Attack, an old friend, as he insists.

Tricky and AJ Tracey

The legendary Tricky joins Benji in the studio, and AJ Tracey steps up for In 3 Records. Plus Benji delves into a sci-fi selection in the final hour.
