The world today offers many types of music, supplying appealing melodies reinforced with destructive lyrics, filled with messages of the sinful human nature. Music can influence listeners in ways that most people do not recognize. True speaks in one of his songs Sinfluence, regarding that issue. He says, "Most things on this earth, the devil's prone to use it to make you fall into sin through its influence." True, a Christian rapper from Toledo, Ohio, offers music that is uplifting to listeners and is Christ centered. These lyrics encourage the body of Christ to grow in their relationship and personal walk with the Lord Jesus Christ, as well as witnessing and reaching out to unbelievers.
Biography
In contrast to a world offering suggestive lyrics and destructive messages, TRUE from Toledo Ohio presents a hip-hop alternative that offers hope and truth to the listener. Birthed out of a desire to encourage and empower listeners in their faith, TRUE has produced several projects since 2006; including his debut project "True Muzik", which set the bar for all of his future projects. Featuring singles such as "2 Faced" and "True Story", it was clear that Truth would be the standard of TRUE's music. To no surprise, TRUE released his next project in late 2007 named "The Sound of Truth" which featured his hit title track and other singles such as "Christ Centered", "My God" and "Embrace The Hate". This project continued to forge ahead with power packed truth aimed at confronting today's toughest issues and addressing the sinful human nature. As TRUE declares in "Sinfluence", "Most things on this earth, the devil's prone to use it - to make you fall into sin through its influence".
In his continuing pursuit of truth, TRUE released "Kingdom Grindin" in late 2008 which challenged listeners to engage in the advancement of the Kingdom of God. Selections such as the title track, "Stand Firm", "Are You Ready" and "Gotta Make It" were inspired by the call to action and forsaking of selfish gain. As TRUE proclaims in "Savior Over Paper", "We choose the Savior over paper, and we still be grindin"!
TRUE's newest single is the title track from his debut album and his highly anticipated twelve-one-one project, "TRIUMPHANT". Triumphant is the message of victory in Christ that proclaims the living reality of His resurrection power. Inspired from Revelations 12:11 and birthed from True's intense passion for believers to be more than conqueror's in Christ Jesus, Triumphant is the herald's anthem for the Overcoming generation!
Revelations 12:11
And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.
