HARD TRUTH SOLDIERS
VOLUME 1
BUY IT
Started as a response to the current apolitical climate in
commercial music, the Hard Truth Soldiers compilation series is a
rallying cry for social justice. Each volume is a collection of
material that goes against the grain of commercial hip-pop by providing
content of substance, touching on subjects ranging from war and police
brutality to black on black crime and domestic violence.
With the recent reduction of civil liberties, increased instances of
injustice and racism both domestically and abroad and a rise in
self-censoring corporate media monopolies hell-bent on stifling dissent
while at the same time flooding our communities with negative and
escapist entertainment, it's ironic that this is the most prolific
period of protest song-writing in history.
And the Hard Truth Soldiers don't miss a beat.
Featuring Paris' trademark massive sonic production, Volume 1
showcases contributions from Public Enemy, The Coup, Dead Prez, Paris,
T-KASH, Kam, The Conscious Daughters, Mystic, MC Ren, Sun Rise Above,
and The S.T.O.P. Movement (Mobb Deep, Tray Deee, Soopafly, KRS-One,
Defari, Daz, J-Ro, RBX, Bad Azz, WC, Dilated Peoples, Mac Minister, The
Alchemist, Mack 10, Evidence, Defari, Everlast, and B-Real), among
others.
With guest production by Fredwreck.
