Yeah but not as much rapping, Tricky raps but it's much different then in traditional hip hop. It's more or less downtempo music with hip hop influences but I wouldn't say it's "hip hop", a lot of it is like a mixture of blues and jazz, singer-songwriter music, hip hop and experimental and downtempo electronic music, and even some world and reggae too. Trip hop is just a bunch of styles combined into one, some dark, some light, but it's usually melancholy...it doesn't seem to all be brooding like Tricky though. I would almost consider him more underground and experimental hip hop, like Dr Octagon. |

Dunno, I've never been too good with genre definitions, especially not concerning trip hop, nu jazz etc. but I always thought at least some of their albums were trip hop-ish. |

| i reckon sounds from the thievery hi-fi was a bit like the triphop sound but with the mirror conspiracy was more into the nu jazz thing, then they turned really boring after that album |

| I think Thievery Corporation are a mixture of downtempo styles, acid jazz, nu jazz, trip hop, dub and reggae and world music, with a little bit of hip hop here and there, like DJ Shadow's stuff. |
