Celebrating Black History Month
Black History Month Spotlight: Trick Daddy
This Black History Month, we honor a Miami legend who redefined the sound of Southern hip-hop and put Black Miami on the map— the unofficial Mayor of Miami, Trick Daddy. Hailing from Liberty City, Trick’s unapologetic lyrics and raw storytelling captured the struggles, resilience, and pride of our community.
With iconic hits like “I’m a Thug” and “Take It to da House”, Trick Daddy not only gave us anthems but became a voice for the streets, representing the heart and soul of Miami. Beyond his music, he’s a mentor and advocate, showing the power of turning pain into purpose and success.
As we celebrate Black History Month, we salute Trick Daddy for his contributions to music, the legacy of Black excellence, and Dade County!
