TRU became the most popular act on No Limit with their 1995 debut album, "True"; it sold over 500,000 copies with little promotion or airplay, and helped establish No Limit as an underground hip-hop force to be reckoned with. TRU released its second album, "Tru 2 da Game," early in 1997. Shortly afterward, No Limit exploded, making rap artist Master P into a superstar. Given his many duties at the label, along with his forays into filmmaking, basketball, and sports management, plus the burgeoning solo careers of Silkk and C-Murder, it wasn''t a surprise that it took Tru two years to produce its third album, "Da Crime Family" which quickly shipped platinum once again for the super-group. After a 6 year (!) hiatus and a myriad of giant solo albums from Master P, TRU is finally back to reclaim what's theirs on "The Truth," their official New No Limit/KOCH Records debut. It features the explosive club anthems that the group is known for, including the first single "Where U From." "Where U From" debuted on January 14th on B.E.T.'s 106 & Park and went for adds the week of January 18th where it was among the most added songs at Urban Radio. "The Truth" is also set to feature a sneak peak into C-Murder's forthcoming album, "The Truest S*** I Ever Spoke." Along with the exciting news of a new C-Murder album, 2005 promises to be a packed year for No Limit fans as this is the 1st in a series of albums from the Master P camp. To follow will be "The Ghetto Bill Gates" from Master P in April which will later be followed by a new 504 Boyz album. TRACK LISTING 1. Where U From (feat. Master P, Halleluyah, Silkk The Shocker) 2.
