Today, rising Watts, CA rapper TruCarr releases “Watts Up,” a rallying anthem dedicated to the home city that raised him.
In the music video, Tru puts on for his city and his hood, introducing viewers to Watts and all the people who live there.
“I did it to turn the city up, to get the city some recognition,” TruCarr explains. “There’s people from our city that’s on, like Jay Rock. Shout out to TDE. But I want to bring more to the city. Like people know Compton, I want them to know Watts.”
Produced by Pressplayy, “Watts Up” comes off Tru’s upcoming mixtape Based On a Tru Story, set to drop on March 2021.
