Inside the mind of one of the greatest producers of our generation

Tricky Stewart is the man behind “Umbrella” (Rihanna), “Single Ladies” (Beyoncé), “Baby” (Justin Bieber), and so many more. With three Grammy wins and over 50 million records sold, his sound helped define a generation.

In this conversation, Tricky opens up about:

🎙 His first big break in music
🎧 The making of “Umbrella” and what made it undeniable
🔥 The impact of “Single Ladies” and its place in culture
🏗 Building a hit machine with The-Dream, Beyoncé, Mariah Carey, Justin Bieber, and more
🧠 Why hit songs are still the only thing that lasts in music

💡 Whether you’re an artist, songwriter, or creative hustling behind the scenes, this is a masterclass in making timeless music.

Thank you to everyone who helped bring this to life. Tricky shares wisdom I’ve never heard from any other creative. His intentionality, persistence, and creative clarity are next level.
