We had the good fortune of connecting with Tru Blu and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Tru, career-wise, where do you want to be in the end?
The end goal for me would have to be when I am able to put others in the same position I fought to get to myself in. Being able to say I laid the ground work so the next individual can have more room to grow is one of the main reasons I push forward as strong as I do. Being so inspiring to someone that they trust me enough not only to share their goals and dreams but also allow me to help make them happen. Building bonds to me is a very important factor in life and it all starts with a conversation. I want every conversation I have to turn into the strongest bonds which will lead to the strongest business partnerships. When you handle your business no one can say you didn’t, and by the end of my journey I want my whole pride to be continuing there own. When I am able to sit back and watch my determination spark the next individual to do the same thing for another is when I know I have reached my ultimate peak.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
What sets me aside from everyone is the fact that I don’t mind being normal. The culture of hip hop has to get shifted back on its pivot and one project at a time I make sure to do just that. When you listen to Concrete Corruption you get those old school vibes back with a splash of current. Being able to make the beat say the words I choose is a craft I have been mastering since my cousin taught me to use making music as a tool to express myself. There will always be challenges and set backs, but just like I share with my cubs we get stronger and stronger with every sunrise. We get out of life what we put in.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I am a introvert, I don’t go “outside” because of the climate of the world. There’s no care there, so when I go “outside” its to share so there will be care there when I go back “outside”.

Who else deserves some credit and recognition?
DONT BE ALARMED WHEN YOU SEE THEM BRICKS ON THEM CHARMS! My whole pride deserves the recognition the individuals I have around me make me get up and go every time because we are all a part of a machine. All my gutta babies and ghetto girls who put this machine in motion is always appreciated.
