What’s Good True 2 Lifers!

We are finally ready to premier the music video we shot for Poppin’ On TV.

After alot of time and tedious efforts, we got the final cut back from director Omar Derby and the video is FIRE! We would like to invite all our family, friends, fans, listeners, followers, haters, lovers, stalkers, pets, doctors, democrats, republicans, to celebrate the release with us.

We will be splitting up the premier of the video into a 3 part series (as you can probably see in the top banner).

First Part:
NYC Release Party - Tuesday, Nov. 25th - 420 Bar and Lounge, 80th & Amsterdam, NYC

Second Part:
HARTFORD Release Party - Wednesday, Nov. 26th - Life Ultra lounge, 81 Asylum St, Hartford, CT

Third Part:
World Premier - Black Friday, Nov. 28th - We will be uploading the video to this site and youtube. So check back here for more details

Here is the teaser one more ‘gain:

And here is the behind the scenes footage in case you missed that too.

So yo, the video is FRESH, FUN and QUALITY and we expect the release party to be no different. Joining True 2 Life Music in celebration will be the video producers, crew, cast and models in the video as well as our industry counterparts and people of interest. So you’ll be able to enjoy some good music and networking.

The event will be non-formal, stop by after-work, after-school, after-sex, after-dinner, etc…come as you are (c) Nirvana.

Peace New York City, see you Tuesday.

Back when we were young in college and diaper fresh out the box in up-state New York, there was only one station giving an underground rap group shine, Ithaca College’s own WICB. Now MTV has recognized one of our favorite college radio stations for their amazing work.

The Woodie Awards express the best in cutting edge music and WICB is up for College Radio Station of the Year. Help them out below by voting here.

WCIB, thanks for giving us that early platform.

True 2 Life Music x La’Toy Fashion Show

Friday, September 19th, 2008

True 2 Life and fashion go hand in hand. And not be cliche or whatever, but we stay fresh. It’s literally documented fact. And not the “fresh” where everyone thinks they’re fresh but they just wear a bunch of obnoxious colors and can’t style it. We got the od cool type of fresh on a consistent basis. Our fresh is like pi, it never ends or repeats. I might fuck around and put that in some lyrics. But anyways, we’ll be performing at the La’toy Couture Lingerie Fashion Show on Sept 25th in Brooklyn. Yeah…models…lingerie and hip hop. dope hip hop. What more do you really need? Liqs?! That’s there too. and probably some other drugs. Shouts to Miss Jackson and Miss Lucas.

Date: Thursday, September 25, 2008
Time: 8:00pm - 11:00pm
Location: Lox Lounge
Street: 15 Putman Ave (On the corner of Grand and Fulton)
City/Town: Brooklyn, NY, Planet Earth
