HISTORY BACKGROUND
The band’s history started on March 16th, 2001, which happens to the birthday of Al-Z (Umair Al-Zubair), one of the two founders of the band. On that date, Al-Z and RzA (Syafeq Rydza), the second founder of the band, decided to create a Hip-Hop band. 2002, they had a performance. The feedback the audience gave them wasn’t what they had expected. Though the eyes of the audience, they were just "wannabes" trying to get to the top. After that incident four of their band members split from the band and started minding their own businesses. The band was left with the two founders. Because of that, they kept themselves away from the music industry. In 2003, Al-Z and RzA decided to reform the band. It was through that where they made the decision to reform the band. First the two founders recruited a new member who was also the new kid in school, Fliko (Faliq). Later that year, Al-Z, RzA and Fliko made the band even more stronger when they recruited their fourth member of the band, Justin (Mohd. Nazreen). Justin is the youngest member of the band at the age of 14. Through this current year, the group had its first performance at Criiz Club. This time the feedback the group recieved from the audiece was great. This year is the year Trickytongue will rise! Band : Trickytongue
