Originally from Virgina, Hip-Hop artist TruthCity, and his track “Changes” goes through the motions of life, desire, and relocating to New York to make it in the music scene. As the song progresses, TruthCity’s strenuous moments in time are resurfaced, such as sleeping in the back of restaurants, and couch surfing, simply for “all the dreams I’m trying to make true.”

Pulling strong similarities, and an obvious influence from Kendrick Lamar, TruthCity’s tone is infectious and admirable. Supported by a simple and smooth beat, which is paired with a feminine overlay for extra sincerity, “Changes” primarily focuses on TruthCity’s melodic story-telling of the world he’s witnessing changing, and the desire he still holds.
