Da' T.R.U.T.H. Love Hope War Review

Da' T.R.U.T.H. Love Hope War Review

Few have said it, including myself, that this is really Da' T.R.U.T.H.'s comeback album. "The Whole Truth" was really a redemption and confession album while this one was back to his old roots in terms of bringing something weighty. Prior to listening to this I was really afraid that this wouldn't live up to his previous albums or that it was time for him to hang the mic up...but after listening to this that was clearly not the case!

The album starts off with "D.O.S (Death of Silence)". In my opinion a good intro always determines whether the album is going to be good or not and yes this one was great. Its almost like T.R.U.T.H. reinvented himself! Songs like "Where Was I" and "J.I.F.E" make you want to go out on the front line and tell the world about Jesus.

Da' T.R.U.T.H. really impressed me with his content on here. The content is really what makes this album what it is. "Real Love" and "Ugly Love" are filled with great content and like I said above its like he reinvents himself! In all aspects he reinvents himself, sound, lyrics, content, flow/delivery, in all aspects!

"Hope" and "The G.O.A.T." are some dope bangers for the 808 heads out there but they do not lack content/creativity. Both songs are dope and proclaim an amazing message.

The album ends with the 3 most important songs("Peace Talks", "Table Talk", and "What About Love"). These 3 songs really dive into the "Love Hope War" concept and they are easily my 3 favorite songs. The most controversial song to me is "Table Talk" and I will be doing a blog on that song soon. 

If I had to give this album a rating it would be 9. Though there is only 12 songs on here you can tell that he spent a lot of time on each song to make them excellent. I may sound biased because Da' T.R.U.T.H. is one of my favorite artists but that's not the case. If you are like me and pay attention to the little things about music and the creation of songs, you'll understand where I'm coming from.

So there you have it. There is my review for "Love Hope War". I encourage everyone to get it and listen to it. Da' T.R.U.T.H. is back like he never left!

MY NEXT PROJECT

THE NAME OF MY NEXT PROJECT AND WHAT TO EXPECT:

TITLE:

The name of my next project will be titled "Lamentations". I use the word "project" because its going to be far from a "mixtape" but not really an "album".

CONCEPT:

"For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it." - 1 Timothy 6:7

"He said, "I came naked from my mother's womb, and I will be naked when I leave. The LORD gave me what I had, and the LORD has taken it away. Praise the name of the LORD!" - Job 1:21

"Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted" - Matthew 5:4

I will go more in depth with the concept as the months go by but, in a nutshell all things are temporary...ALL THINGS. The Lord will allow things to DIE in our life for our growth. With this project its more so of me mourning over the things that were near to me that DIED. It also shows that there was comfort in it becuase it was for my good and my growth!

It gets more in depth...but I'll leave it alone....for now

WHAT TO EXPECT:

When it comes to sound, expect more of an acoustic influenced sound. Lots of live instrumentation and sampled music. When it comes to content, expect a lot of relatable topics and cold hard truth.

WHEN TO EXPECT AND WHY I'M ANNOUNCING SO EARLY.

Lord willing, I'm expecting this to drop in late August/early September. The reason I'm announcing it so early  is the same reason is not a "mixtape". There's going to be so much that goes in with this project, not just music. In March, expect devotionals that relate to this project from me and my team. Also, you'll be seeing video commentaries/testimonies on various topics that all lead up to the first single that drops in June!

Keep me in your prayers!

Until next time, PEACE!

Planet Mars 2013

Planet Mars 2013

Like I said, Planet Mars will be back up in 2013. There's a lot of things you can expect from it in this year. Not only will I continue to do album reviews(Skrip & Sho Baraka are next), and artist interviews(Dillon Chase and/or Anatome are next) but I will be doing devotionals.

Also, I will add a few extra "pages/sections" to the main page so it's more than just the average blog. You will be getting the full Planet Mars experience as far as my preference in music and my thoughts on some broad issues.

Me and my team will be meeting up from week to week to help me with this plus give me ideas.

Until next time. Peace and God Bless
