Biography
[edit]Truth first came on the scene at the age of 13-14 by sculpting underground urban markets and artists alike. From hosting college radio shows, to setting up local pirate radio stations with freestyles and fights, The Truth slowly built a reputation that saw them take to the stage with artists such as Donaeo and Lady Sovereign.
After leaving aside the radio stations and rave scene, The Truth became part of a four-man MC group. From recording in a computer room to lacing his vocals in a fully equipped studio in the heart of London, The Truth became a solo artist alongside the producer of the group Bobby Wonda. After having taken a break from music and earning a fully certified law degree, The Truth had the freedom to create new music. The music had now become formulated yet liberated; it was now commercialized yet bespoke.[citation needed]
From The Truth's debut single "Kya Karoon" (2010) to his follow-up "Sharabi" (2010), The Truth performed at Wembley Stadium for the Asian Achievers Awards 2010, BBC Maida Vale Studios 2011, and Glastonbury 2011. The Truth's latest[when?] single, "I Make 'Em Say" (2011) has been played multiple times on BBC Radio 1.[citation needed]
He has featured on BBC Radio 1, BBC Asian Network, Wembley Stadium, BBC Maida Vale, and Glastonbury 2011. On 1 October 2011, The Truth won Best Urban Act at the Brit Asia Awards 2011, making this his first award, from his first nomination.[1]
