Trick is the seventh studio album released by J-Urban singer-songwriter Kumi Koda. The album continued her #1 streak and stayed on the Oricon charts for twenty-nine weeks. It was released on January 28, 2009 and came in CD and CD+2DVD with the latter being a limited edition and the second DVD containing her Live DVD "Koda Kumi Special Live “Dirty Ballroom” ~One Night Show~". The limited editions of both versions carried the bonus track Venus, originally released by Shocking Blue in 1969.

Trick is Kumi Koda's seventh studio album and eleventh overall album. It continued her streak of #1 albums on the Oricon Weekly Charts, which began in 2005 with her compilation album Best ~first things~.Trick debuted at #1 on Oricon's Daily Chart with over 100,000 units sold in its first day. By the end of its first week, Trick sold over 253,000 copies, placing it at #1 on Oricon's Weekly Chart, being her third album to reach the top spot . However, this is her lowest first week sales for a studio album since her 2005 album secret.

The album was released as CD and CD+2DVD. CD+2DVD was a limited release and carried the "Special Live "Dirty Ballroom" ~One Night Show~" concert she performed at Studio Coast in the Shin-Kiba district of Koto, Tokyo on October 23, 2008. The bonus secret feature on the second DVD could be accessed by clicking on the clown's nose on the menu screen, which was the rehearsals and setup for the show.

The first DVD carried six music videos, two of which were new and one, which was reedited for the album. The two new videos were Just The Way You Are (stylized as JUST THE WAY YOU ARE) and show girl. The reedited music video was the "album version" of That Ain't Cool, which featured American singer Fergie - the original was released on her Moon single. Bonus features on the first DVD included six secret videos, which could be accessed by clicking on Kumi's left eye on the menu screen.
