Today, rising Watts, California rapper TruCarr teams up with Arkansas’ Bankroll Freddie in “Up Wit It”, a bruising new single off his upcoming debut project, ‘Based On A Tru Story’, releasing via 100 Entertainment/eOne Music in 2021. In the music video, the two friends show off their money, cars, and talent as they rap alongside a pounding beat and catchy synths. The video intercuts with clips from the film “Boyz n the Hood”, getting honest about the struggles Black men face all over the country and specifically in his hometown of Watts, California.
“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 le know Compton, I want them to know Watts.” The new music follows street single “Outside”, which was remixed by friend and fellow West Coast rapper Blueface and landed on his ‘Famous Cryp’ album.
