New York rap artist Justin
Truth (formerly known as Pheucha) has published his newest release on
Tattoo Productions, “Just Me: The Presence.” The record is street
wise, rough, tough, straight-up and entirely composed of Truth's own
ostentatious personality. Originally known as Dionycest (a name
begotten from a long tradition of rap battles with New York's Najee
Tha Don), Justin Truth has been rapping professionally since circa
2000. Though “Just Me: The Presence” is his first full length LP
since 2003's locally distributed “By Any Means Necessary,”
another full length record from 2005, “Mix Bizness n' Pleasure,”
was also cut by Justin Truth. All told, this places the total volume
of his recorded material at over fifty official tracks, making him an
up-and-coming prolific entertainer in the music industry.
“Just Me: The Presence”
is itself a voluminous album, being composed of twenty full length,
original tracks, some of which reach toward the five minute mark,
making this record an incredibly reasonable purchase for fans of the
rap music genre (most full-length albums boast, at most, fifteen
original tracks).
The overall tone of “Just
Me: The Presence” is somewhat dark, not to say melancholy. The
rapping is spoken in Truth's rich, rather deep voice, drawled out as
if from the shadows of the city. Beats are all original and not
derivative, the orchestration of which has been guided by Truth,
himself.
Naming as major influences on his work the artists Joe
Budden, Jadakiss, and Nas, Justin Truth says of this record that it
communicates a simple message to his fans. “Trials are a part of
life,” he writes. “There’s not always conviction. You control
how bright that light at the end of your tunnel is.”
“Just Me: The Presence”
is poised to become Truth's most talented and ambitious collection of
material yet. The true fan of rap music owes it to himself to
experience the sound that comes straight from the underground.
