Maurice Samuel Young (born September 23, 1974), better known by his stage name Trick Daddy, is an American rapper, actor, and producer from Miami's Liberty City.
Music career
Trick appeared on the track "Scarred" by former 2 Live Crew member Luther "Luke" Campbell, Produced by Darren "DJ Spin" Rudnick, from Luke's 1996 album Uncle Luke. The song became a hit and immediately caught the attention of fans and record producers alike. Ted Lucas, a former concert promoter and then-CEO of Slip-n-Slide Records, signed the rapper to the newly formed record label. Slip-n-Slide released Trick Daddy Dollars' debut album Based on a True Story in 1997; the album was popular in the Miami area.
In 1998, when his next album www.thug.com was released, Trick removed "Dollars" from his stage name. Club-oriented track "Nann Nigga", featuring Trina, became a national hit, peaking at the third spot of the Billboard Hot Rap Singles chart.Atlantic Records signed Trick Daddy to the label in 2000 and released Book of Thugs: Chapter AK Verse 47 that year. "Shut Up", which Jason Birchmeier of allmusic considered Trick's "rowdiest club hit yet", was the lead single from Book of Thugs. His next single, "America" (featuring Society), was a poignant political track that writer Omar Burgess compared to other sociological tracks in Trick's catalog such as "Ain't No Santa".
All I Need is the second studio album by English singer and songwriter Foxes, released on 5 February 2016.
Background
Foxes started work on the album in January 2015 in Los Angeles. Commenting on the album's direction, Foxes said "I was inspired a lot more with this record with stripping things back and making it a lot more emotional. I didn't want to do a concept album, I always like it when I can write from a diary in a way. It's quite an emotional album. It's got elements from the first one, but it's definitely not as produced. The tracks feel a lot more vocal [with] piano and strings. It's still cinematic in ways but I'm a lot more honest on this record this time around, which is quite a scary thing to be." She has also said that the album was inspired by relationships. The album was originally scheduled to be released in October of 2015 but the album was pushed back to 5 February 2016 so it could be released worldwide.
Critical reception
All I Need received generally positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album has an average score of 69 out of 100, which indicates "generally favorable reviews" based on 8 reviews.
David Ruffin, the Temptations main lead singer, serves as the songs narrator. In it he's begging his lover to forgive his unfaithfulness and mistreatment of her, telling her how guilty he feels about it and that he'll make it up to her. The recordings beat is very similar to the songs written and produced by Holland-Dozier-Holland, Motown's main songwriting team (of which Holland was a part of).
The single is the first not to be produced by the group's main producer Norman Whitfield since Get Ready, as Whitfield produced their releases starting with the following single. And due to Whitfield maintaining an iron grip on his creative control over The Temptations' released material, it would also be the last until the singles where they're teamed with Diana Ross and the Supremes in 1968.
In an interview, Within Temptation vocalist Sharon den Adel discussed "All I Need":
Music video
The video for this single was shot on 30 September in Berlin. It was released online on 19 October 2007. The video consists of a dream world in the mind of Sharon's character. The band is shown tied to walls of their cells, along with various surrealistic scenes. In the end of the video Sharon is shown in a hospital bed with images from the dream sequence flickering on a screen connected to her mind via wires.
In an interview, den Adel discussed some elements of the video:
Lea: It's you in a hospital-bed there...
Sharon: Yeah, and they are monitoring my dreams, so they are analysing what I'm dreaming. And that's basically the video and it just suited best with the lyrics, because it's very difficult to express things which are very symbolic, which you can't really show in images like "hope". How do you express "hope", you know? Or "believe in something" or "keeping something real" or "people who are fake". You can image that very well in a way of a dream. That's why we did it in that way.

Last year was a great year, ask the click But this year was scarred to our last half of brick Trying to survive in the drought where it ain't no blow It ain't no [Incomprehensible] so with ain't no dough Yo 95 south sun roof moonlight Po-pos tight down before the turnpike The last lick went sour Fed's jammed the blow But like a weather man it's a light chance of snow Lay low at the bottom at the tell Wait patient for my Haitian to hit me on the cell 'Cause my Haitian cartel they always work They even had shit when the Cubans were hurt My nigga hit back he ain't got no coke He said the coast guard just knocked off the boat He said them Fed's in Texas they out of control Knocking off major bricks with the border patrol A nigga couldn't rap long 'cause the phones they be wired up I be goddamned the whole East coast dried up A nigga went from raw dope to cheap base Ridin' 'round with the block Fed in the brief case Surviving in the drought where it ain't no blow It ain't no piece, yo it ain't no dough It ain't no bricks, no chips, no food So tell me what the fuck am I suppose to do? Surviving in the drought where it ain't no blow It ain't no piece, yo it ain't no dough It ain't no bricks, no chips, no food So tell me what the fuck am I suppose to do? In the drought I look the dope fiend right in the grill Slang him a Asprin or a vitamin pill In the drought niggaz panic when that money stop Start slinging wamis and them dummy blocks Hit the projects twurking in that 87 fleet drop Set up shop with a 9 pack of sheet rock Watcha a nigga get hot, now he wanna hit pop He wanna brain wrestle he don't know I got my shit cocked 'Cause in the drought you get stuck like a thumb tack Dixie man got a 20 pack worth of come back A player fucked up till that drought go down A nigga got to spread his hustle when the drought come 'round I'm stuck a player fucked up now I'm finna come back up It's back on with then pack playboy the blow flooded The base heads happy and my workers show love it My dog hit the lick about two hundred birds Off a Bahamian cruise ship that nigga got nerves Now Cubans is beeping and the Haitians is calling I'm back to slanging whole chickens popping cases and balling I got to put the team on so I'm looking them up RJ he the chef, he be cooking them up, hookin' them up While I'm whipping 'em, flipping breaking 'em down With the straight razor chipping 'em We got 'em harder than hard plus we pitching soft ball Jumping for that how high this year gone cost y'all Since we the only niggaz wit it It's the lick of a life time Coming up in the drought through the paroofeal pipe line This time I'm gone sit on me 'bout ten 'Cause you never know when that drought coming again Surviving in the drought, surviving in the drought Surviving in the drought where it ain't no blow It ain't no piece, yo it ain't no dough It ain't no bricks, no chips, no food So tell me what the fuck am I suppose to do? Surviving in the drought where it ain't no blow It ain't no piece, yo it ain't no dough It ain't no bricks, no chips, no food
