Watch: New Tricky video

Fresh from scientifically-sound musings on hip-hop's pernicious role on gun culture in the UK, Tricky's new video has been made available on the web for fans not too busy shooting people's faces off.
The promo is for new single 'Council Estate', taken from the Bristol trip-hopper's forthcoming Domino debut Knowle West Boy, and will be released on June 30.
Says Tricky: "'Council Estate_' is just me… that song is the upbringing me and friends had. It’s the first single I’ve ever done with just me on vocals.
"I couldn’t whisper that song. I had to come out of myself and do a loud, screaming vocal. I wanted to be a proper frontman on that one._"
