New Dawn Records are proud to announce the upcoming release of the new album “XVI : Return of the Gods” by New Jersey rapper Tru Trilla on May 31st 2024, distributed digitally by Ingrooves / Virgin Music.
For over two years the Brick City lyrical marksman has painstakingly crafted an absolute masterpiece, gathering together a stellar line up of guest featured artists and producers for what is the much anticipated follow up to the classic banger ‘God of Barz’ released by ourselves almost exactly four years to the day in May 2020.
A long time affiliate of Naughty by Nature, Lords of the Underground and group member of 050 Boyz, the Newark native brings more of the same uncompromising energy as before, but this time moves the action further afield.
With original foot soldiers still flying the flag for the Garden State, Chicago and Barcelona, the legion’s been bolstered by additional heavy artillery from California, Detroit, New York, Florida, Boston, Canada, Japan and the UK.
Where God of Barz set down a highly impressive early marker, the new album is its natural successor. The broad range of production styles raise the levels on again while retaining the original core essence. A diverse and powerful soundtrack for a blockbuster of fierce bars, slick rhymes and gritty lyricism delivered by some of hip hop’s most renowned verbal technicians at the top of their game.
With beats by Tone Spliff, Jamal Nueve, LG Roc, Frost Gamble, Four Limbs, Ramson Badbonez, DNA Beatz & Sumerio Square, and featured artists including Reks, Skyzoo, Lakim Shabazz, Julius of Shoe Gang, Ruste Juxx, N.B.S., Recognize Ali, Guilty Simpson, Justo the MC & NapsNDreds, this one’s for the warriors.
Venimus. Vidimus. Vicimus. Welcome to the real…….
