Divine Truth – Q&A Interview

Divine Truth

Tell us a little about yourself. Where you are from? How long have you been making Hip Hop?

My name is Divine Truth representing Southside Jamaica Queens, NY and I’ve been making Hip-Hop music since 91″-92″ . As far as on a productive and consistent skill level I would say since 97″

What influences you in making Hip Hop?

The Hip-Hop culture itself. It’s my lifestyle, it’s who I am, my form of expression.. Hip Hop is my oxygen!

Describe your music, and what separates you from other MCs?

My music is a description of reality, an observation of life. It’s relevant and most importantly organic, that’s my identity to the streets. What separates me from other emcees is artistically, Im a scientist who delivers a message of Truth and manifest that to everyone especially the youth who maybe listening to my music.

Who have you collaborated with? who would you like to collab with in the near future?

I collaborated with local artists, no major names really but who I would love to collaborate with in the near future.. Nas, Common, Styles P, Raekwon, there’s so many inspiring artists but overall I would have to say 50 cent. To come from the same environment as me and to become so successful, I have nothing but respect for him. On a business aspect, I could learn a lot from a brother like that!

Your definition of “Underground Hip Hop”?

Raw, Hardcore, a cultural movement, a society of realism.

Production wise, who are your influences? Who does your production?

DJ Premier, Dr Dre & RZA and I work alongside producer “Rossome Authentic” out of C.T.. Plus I also do my own production.

Just an early appetizer to keep your mouths watering.. but I’m currently in the works of the full mixtape project coming soon.. the best has yet to come!

Can you give us a brief description of the creative process of DIVINE TRUTH: THE PROMO EDITION? Also / what was the idea or concept description about your Mixtape Art Cover?

It was a magical experience! very testimonial! One of those moments I just decided to make it official! I was at a point in my life where I was ready to settle down but when I meet Ross (Rossome Authentic) and began making music everything started coming back again! But the art cover was a direct design, nothing too detailed or complicated, just a reflection of who I am as an artist!
