New Dawn Records are proud to present the new single “Sun Rays” by New Jersey rapper Tru Trilla featuring Reks and Lakim Shabazz, produced by LG Roc.

It’s the first to be taken from the phenomenal new album “XVI : Return of the Gods” which releases on May 31st, and is the follow up to the Brick City veteran’s classic ‘God of Barz’ which we also released back in 2020.

Several years in the making, Tru has gathered together a heavyweight line up of guest featured artists and producers from all around the USA, Canada, Japan, Spain and the UK for a masterpiece of fierce bars, killer beats and turntablism.

This first single sets the agenda, and unsurprisingly has already enjoyed healthy radio support from stations around the world which we appreciate greatly.

Producer LG Roc’s soundtrack is the perfect backdrop for Tru, Reks and Lakim Shabazz to go in all the way, exchanging formidable rhymes and wordplay while channelling the knowledge of the ancients. Seasoned campaigners at the height of their powers, a masterful display.

Available to stream and download at Apple Music/Itunes, Tidal, Amazon and below on Bandcamp and Spotify

The official visuals are also on our Youtube channel

Earlier in the summer, BBC Radio 1 and BBC Radio 6 programme “Focus Beats” included instrumental tracks from our catalogue by Brelstaff, Frost Gamble and Husky Brown.

Broadcast weekly through the night and produced by Reform Radio, it’s designed for listeners to help with focus, study and to chill & relax with the playback facility available online for several weeks via the station’s renowned BBC Sounds.

This weekend the programme again included one of our releases, “High” being the third track used from Edinburgh producer Brelstaff’s “Urban Testimony [The Instrumentals]” album we released in the Spring, and you can listen back to the whole programme HERE

The album was released in the Spring on all digital platforms including Apple/iTunes, and Tidal. It is also available to listen in full at Bandcamp, Spotify and there is also a full video playlist for every track on Youtube

The instrumental album was the forerunner to the full vocal version releasing on November 3rd, a collaboration with Brooklyn rapper Justo the MC.

The vocal version of “High” was released in the late summer, and again is available to stream and download on all of the digital platforms already mentioned, with the official video playing on Youtube.

The next single from the pair is “Sunday”, out October 10th
