▄████▀▀▀▄ ▐██▓ ▓██▌ ▐▌ ▐████
▐████▌ ▄▄▓▓█▓▌ ItÆs often been stated that the truth ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ can only make you stronger. It steps to ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▀▀███▀▄█████▀ your conscience and your soul with a ▀█████▄
▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ realness that defies fakery, frivolity ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ and euphemism. Truth is bold, daring ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ and unabashedly unapologetic. Truth ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ stands tall against anything put in its ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ path. ItÆs also been said that "Truth ▀█████████
▀▀██▄ Hurts." However, when it comes to ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄
▄▄▄▄▄ ▐██▓ singer/songwriter TRUTH HURTS, sheÆs ▓██▌ ████▄ ▄█▌
▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓▌ dropping "Hurts" from her name because, ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀
▐███▌▄█████▀ as Teddy Pendergrass once sang, "It ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▄ ▄███▄█████▀ DonÆt Hurt Now." ▀█████▄
▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ "I prefer to call myself just Truth ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ now," she explains, "because in all of ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ my music, IÆm about bringing some truth ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ to the table." As the title of her ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄
▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ sophomore album suggests, TRUTH has ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄
▄████▀▀▀▄ ▐██▓ exhaled and is READY NOW. ▓██▌ ▐▌ ▐████
▐████▌ ▄▄▓▓█▓▌ ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ READY NOW is TRUTHÆs sophomore album, ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▀▀███▀▄█████▀ which will be released May 11 on Pookie ▀█████▄
▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ Entertainment (distributed nationally by ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ the Navarre Corporation). ItÆs her ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ first for the label founded last year ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ by Grammy« Award ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ winner/singer/songwriter/producer/musici ▀█████████
▀▀██▄ an Raphael Saadiq. The albumÆs title ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄
▄▄▄▄▄ ▐██▓ track will be released to radio March 30 ▓██▌ ████▄ ▄█▌
▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓▌ with a video following shortly ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀
▐███▌▄█████▀ thereafter. ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▄ ▄███▄█████▀ ▀█████▄
▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ "æReady NowÆ is a love song, but as the ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ title of my album, it means IÆm ready ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ to do me. I think it's a well rounded ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ record. More magic happened because ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ people came together for something more ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄
▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ than just the money. Raphael promotes a ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄
▄████▀▀▀▄ ▐██▓ very natural and creative environment, ▓██▌ ▐▌ ▐████
▐████▌ ▄▄▓▓█▓▌ so I'm going to continue to grow in ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ that direction." ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▀▀███▀▄█████▀ ▀█████▄
▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ The album is indeed a more intimate ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ glimpse into both the personality and ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ musicality of TRUTH--born Shari Watson ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ in St. Louis, Missouri--than her more ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ hip hop debut, TRUTHFULLY SPEAKING. That ▀█████████
▀▀██▄ album debuted at #5 on BillboardÆs "Top ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄
▄▄▄▄▄ ▐██▓ 200 Albums" chart and #4 on BillboardÆs ▓██▌ ████▄ ▄█▌
▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓▌ "Top R&B Albums" chart, and spawned the ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀
▐███▌▄█████▀ #1 hit single "Addictive." In a review ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▄ ▄███▄█████▀ titled "Truth Will Set You Free," USA ▀█████▄
▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ Today described the songstress as "...a ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ sultry, soulful singer who - as her ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ stage name indicates - uses veracity ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ like a blunt object." While the Los ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ Angeles Times declared: "...this ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄
▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ strong-voiced singer captures the ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄
▄████▀▀▀▄ ▐██▓ pleasure and pain of love and life with ▓██▌ ▐▌ ▐████
▐████▌ ▄▄▓▓█▓▌ piercing emotion." ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▀▀███▀▄█████▀ Regarding how she landed at Pookie ▀█████▄
▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ Entertainment with Raphael Saadiq, TRUTH ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ states, "I just got bold and asked him! ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ It was the next logical step for me as ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ an artist. I came to the studio to meet ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ with him about doing some tracks and ▀█████████
▀▀██▄ quickly knew that wasn't going to be ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄
▄▄▄▄▄ ▐██▓ enough for me. I wanted to be under a ▓██▌ ████▄ ▄█▌
▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓▌ roof where I could really work with ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀
▐███▌▄█████▀ someone. So I turned it into a meeting ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▄ ▄███▄█████▀ about signing with him. He thought about ▀█████▄
▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ it and when we met a second time, he ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ told me, æIÆm doing an independent ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ thing. If you're open to the ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ sacrifices that requires, then we can ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ work together.Æ" And the rest is ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄
▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ history. ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄
▄████▀▀▀▄ ▐██▓ ▓██▌ ▐▌ ▐████
▐████▌ ▄▄▓▓█▓▌ READY NOW features many special guests, ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ including the Pookie President, who ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▀▀███▀▄█████▀ sings backing vocals on "Knock Knock" and ▀█████▄
▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ wrote "Lifetime," a ballad so deep, ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ TRUTH swears itÆs going to "change the ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ game." "The track is beautiful," she ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ shares. "He plays banjo on the hook and ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ this other weird guitar that sits up ▀█████████
▀▀██▄ like a keyboard. It's mid-tempo with some ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄
▄▄▄▄▄ ▐██▓ bottom, but lovely." ▓██▌ ████▄ ▄█▌

▐███▌▄█████▀ Other writing and producing contributors ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀

▀▀███▀▄█████▀ "Knock Knock" and "Ready Now." Asked if ▀█████▄
▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ Dr. Dre, the hip hop production ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ powerhouse whose Aftermath label ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ introduced her, was contributing, ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ TRUTH states, "We did this so fast that ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ Dre didn't have time to offer anything. ▀█████████
▀▀██▄ But he's behind me and my move over to ▄██▀▀███ ▀ ▄
▄▄▄▄▄ ▐██▓ Pookie 100%. We're friends...and we're ▓██▌ ████▄ ▄█▌
▀ ▀▀███▄ ▄▓▓█▓▌ cool." ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀███████▀
▐███▌▄█████▀ ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▄ ▄███▄█████▀ Further expanding on the sensuality of ▀█████▄
▀▀███▀██████▀ ▀▄▄ TRUTHFULLY SPEAKING, TRUTH once again ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ shows that sheÆs quite the outspoken ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ provocateur with "Phone Sex," on which ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ TRUTH breaks down a concept she calls ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ "The Mobile Kama Sutra," reprising a bit ▀███████▀▓▄▄▄
▄▄▄ ▀▀██▄ of the mesmerizing Middle Eastern vibe ▄██▀▀■ ▀████▄
▄████▀▀▀▄ ▐██▓ (with a touch of Africa) that made ▓██▌ ▐▌ ▐████
▐████▌ ▄▄▓▓█▓▌ "Addictive" so...addictive. "It's not ▐▓█▓▓▄ ▀█▄▄▄███▀
▀████▄▄▄▄███████▀ as blatant as it sounds," she insists. ▀█████▄ ▀▀▀
▀▀███▀▄█████▀ "It takes you into a dream world. IÆm just ▀█████▄
▄█████▀ ▀▄▄ being a woman." ▄▄▀ ▀█████▄
▐█████ ▐█▓ ▓█▌ █████▌
█████▌ ███▌ "Like I said at the top," she ▐███ ▐█████
▀█████▄ ▓██▓ concludes, "it doesn't hurt now. I feel ▓██▓ ▄█████▀
▀▀███████▀ so much freer to be Truth as well as ▀█████████
