Tricky is blaming the Red Hot Chilli Peppers management for the delay of his last album 'Blowback', labelling them 'little girls' and vowing never to work with them again. Tricky told launch.com, that even though the Chilli Peppers had wanted to work with him for several years, "their manager is like, 'Well who is this guy Tricky? We sell 23 million albums or whatever. This guy, he's not on our soundscan." This led to the release of the following collaboration being delayed. This was put down to the band's management concentrating on the release of 'By The Way, and not clearing the project. "It was almost like I was begging them to clear it. So my attitude is like I don't want to work with your band. I don't even listen to your band, so just forget about it, but it was too late then. We had to put back my single because of their album. Little pop stars, they're just like little girls, man." Current album 'Vulnerable' is out now, and he says that he has two more albums pending, including tracks with Kelis and Polly Harvey.
