Whether it's in the middle of a street cipher, or in the club, whether its' in the basement or on stage, Tru-Paz will be there. To define Tru-Paz is to define what Hip Hop is. Hip Hop today is the epitome of Pop, the style and the music. Hip hop is also the epitome of street expression. Some view this dichotomy as a paradox, Tru-Paz views it as an opportunity. Akim, Boozy, and DJ Unknown are looking to bring up-tempo, energizing music with a conscious message into the ears of the people. Blending the good feelings of club music, with the uplifting vibes of positive messages, Tru-Paz hopes to deliver a universal brand of Hip Hop. The group is composed of three core members: Akim, Boozy and DJ Unknown. Akim is the lead MC, delivering sharp and energizing vocals that cut to the heart of any issue that needs to be tackled. His fans have compared him to everyone from Big L to Jay Z. Boozy is the Yang to Akim's Ying. Where Akim is fierce and aggressive, Boozy is cool and smooth. His sultry blend of harmonious singing and soulful rapping gives Tru-Paz a distinct reggae feel that very few groups possess. With his powerful voice and moving verses, Boozy is the perfect compliment to Akim's raw energy. Anyone that has heard Boozy has compared him to such legends as Tupac, and Bob Marley. With two solid vocal forces, DJ Unknown provides the glue that binds Tru-Paz together. With production that ranges from choppy samples over hard drums, to soulful electronic grooves over jazzy rhythmic drum loops. Unknown weaves melodies that both move the listener, as well as compliment Akim and Boozy's flows. As a producer, DJ Unknown has been compared stylistically to DJ Premier and DJ Shadow. Together, these three artists represent one goal. Together, they aspire to unite the fragmented Hip Hop community into one unstoppable force. The Tru-Paz vision is to inspire everyone, from the Backpack kids who study Hip Hop history, to the club kids who bang bass heavy beats in their ride. From the average Pop listener, to the most intense music critic, the Tru-Paz aim to smash the boundaries that divide Hip Hop. To take Hip Hop to where it was meant to be, to be a universal voice for the positive upliftment of all people, regardless of their differences.
