TriCosta
It’s rare to find a new breed of emcees in 2011 with a true love and passion for the essence of hip-hop. Tricosta began writing poetry before he started rapping. That poetry turned into rhyming before he began putting it over instrumentals. With a background in DJ’ing, Tricosta, who is of Trinidad & Costa Rican background, is the perfect cover boy for real hip-hop in 2011.
With his new inspirational and uplifting boom bap influenced single “Anything” recently released; Tricosta is at the biggest and best point of his hip-hop career yet. Influenced by both Biggie and Eminem, it’s clear that Tricosta has a true appreciation for rhyming.
Complaining of a lack of passion in hip-hop today, Tricosta hopes to restore the faith in hip-hop by making lyrics a point of emphasis. When asked about this, Tricosta had the following to say. “As far as substance goes, that doesn’t exist in hip-hop anymore. That’s a shame because it went from people really having to listen to what you have to say, and they had to pay attention. Now it’s just strictly about does the hook sound good? Is the beat hot? Everything else is whatever. As long as those two things are hot, who cares about the rest?” The blazing single “Anything” is available now….
