All Genres > Hip Hop/Rap > Hip Hop > TRUTH UNIVERSAL: Plantation Graffiti: The Naked Truth Dressed to Kill

Any true emcee, b-boy, DJ, graff artist, producer, or any participant in the Hip Hop artform knows that the art should remain in tradition of the pioneers. Enter Truth Universal: A Trinidad born New Orleans based MC, who is dedicated to the preservation of Hip Hop and the cultivation and liberation of the Afrikan (Black) community.

Consciousness of the oppression of people of color worldwide is expressed in his strategic and iconoclastic compositions. Truth draws from the strength and/or example of the Divine Intelligence/Creative Force, the Ancestors, his family, Grand Master Flash and the Furious Five, Public Enemy, Just-Ice, KRS1, Poor Righteous Teachers, Z-3 MC's, Dana Dane and Clark Kent, Slick Rick and Dougie Fresh, Gang Starr, Eric B and Rakim, George & Jonathan Jackson, and Assata Shakur to name a few.

Truth Universal, in partnership with Advanced Ideas Music (DJs Killswitch & Maxmillion), is working to make a mark on the Underground Hip Hop scene. He is also a member of Pit Productions and the Ultimate Alliance (Truth Universal, Illdividuals--Blu Blacq & Furious Styles, and DJ Waht?).
