We will address and respond to each and every offer in a timely manner. True’s first introduction to hip hop was a relative, who use to DJ back in the day in Washington, D.C. He was the first cat he ever heard spin a rap record and he was so inspired and instantly struck. From there True started doing his own DJ’ing at parties. But his real desire was music and rapping which was soon about to explode. True finally decided to start rapping with a group called “Bang Squad” back in 1995 they dropped a CD called “Bangin” which sold pretty well regionally and also opened many opportunities for performing shows around the Central Valley and Bay are in California. A year later in 2002 True moved to Colorado where he hooked up with another artist that goes by the name of Fiasco. He was into Mobb Deep and he also produced beats …This was something that True has been looking for and he wanted to hear more of it. They hooked up with R&B singer Rudy Beamon and created Develop.Mental. They started to perform in Denver at an array of Hip Hop shows. Develop.Mental hit the stage at U-Nite almost every Thursday night in 2003. They also performed many shows at the Soiled Dove and did a regional tour with KOS Promotions. Sports Field Rocks, Whisky Bills, Cricket On The Hill, Cervantes, The Roxy, The Cube and a few warehouse shows downtown made up the resume of Develop.Mental and in the end of 2003 we collaborated with Airtight a local artist and producer to release the Develop CD. The CD sold well, but more importantly started to get True known more around the region and the beginning of a following. As many groups have internal problems that also occurred to Develop.Mental and caused them to split in early 2004. True felt at this point that he gained more than enough knowledge to write and perform his own solo material and approached the artist Scum and LSP productions to give him the solo opportunity he was looking for. Scum’s producing skills and writing ability helped assist True to breakout on his own and start performing as True Killah. True moved to California for a couple of years and performed solo at many shows around the Central Valley, Fresno, Merced and Modesto area. True worked and recorded a few tracks with a group called “ Cali-Ban and also did a Central Valley Collaboration with Destructo Bunny. Both CD’s have recently been released. All this experience gave him the opportunity to create himself into the vision he has as a solo artist. By this time True felt he was ready to return to Colorado to gain back the following he had but more importantly the respect as a Hip-Hop artist. True has recently wrapped up the recording of his first long awaited solo CD and with an introduction to the name. TRUE recently was released from a Songwriting Agreement with the dBHeard Publishing Group due to creative differences. Not Only Street Records released “True The Don”, the CD entitled “ All Hail The Don” in early 2008 which recieved high acclaim and was announced as one of the best written hip hop releases of 2008. After leaving Db Heard Publishing Group and Not Only Street Records True and his Producer Fiasco Andretti hooked up to form the underground hardcore group "Death 4 Told" which is currently tearing up the hardcore internet radio scene with the release of "White Lipz" in late 2008. After such a crazy response to D4T and numerous internet radio interviews True The Don has decided to release a second solo cd under the LSP label. He is currently in Sublevel Heaven Studios in Lakewood, CO with Fiasco Andretti behind the boards working on a highly anticipated project which he has described as "next level". Recently when asked in an interview what his new project would be about he just responded " Yo I'll just give you the title and you can try and figure it out from there. The title of the cd will be "Give Me Your Wallet"." For colabirations and guest appearances please forward any e-mails either to the myspace page.

He is a one of a kind, and if you are into extreme Hip-Hop with a lot of edge, he is someone you want to see perform live.
