Truth
Hurts is a young lady
on the rise to stardom. The talented newcomer who got her start with
the aid of Dr. Dre
is flying high with
her debut single 'Addictive'
(featuring Rakim).
The successful
West Coast rap producer signed her to his Aftermath
label during the period of his chart-topping productions with Mary
J. Blige ('Family
Affair ')
and Eve
('Let Me Blow Your
Mind ') last year and
has crafted a smash hit lead single for the young lass.
Produced
by DJ Quik,
the track features Eric
B and Rakim's classic
beat 'Paid in Full'
(remember that record with Indian chanting) as the tagline and
legendary rapper Rakim
himself reprises his role with the rap cameo on the song. The track
has taken a life of it's own getting enormous exposure both on radio
and television and with the success of the record comes the album 'Truthfully
Speaking' which
arrived in stores last week (Jun 25th). I haven't gotten a copy of
the full length yet
but once I do I will give it a review.
Nevertheless a
great debut from this up and coming artist. - A TY-D
Pick
indeed.
