Tricky dropped out of school at the age of 12 and moved to Nairobi with a group of friends. He subsequently began hustling in the city, where he struggled to get enough money to eat, let alone buy clothing and shelter.
Tricky was essentially homeless and would spend his evenings at the homes of kind strangers. However, as the good samaritans grew tired of him, he was forced to live on the streets in Saika Estate on Kangundo Road.
He became accustomed to life living on the streets, which included smoking cigarettes and bhang, as well as sniffing glue. To make a living, he also engaged in illegal activities such as pickpocketing and selling scrap metal.
He eventually acquired a mkokoteni, which he used to transport vegetables and other goods from the Gikomba market to various locations throughout the CBD. He spent nearly three years on the streets before finding greener pastures.
