Though up-and-coming hip-hop trio True 2 Life Music are new to the Booth, readers who’ve seen recently-released biopic Notorious may recognize their faces; Concise played Gutta of Junior M.A.F.I.A., while Slang Hughes and K. Words appeared as Fulton Street hustlers.  On a newly-released promotional single, T2L brush off all their detractors, knowing that sooner or later those same critics will see them Poppin’ on TV.  All three members come with rhymes hot enough to make the ever-popular lyrical topics of cash, chains, clothes and haters seem fresh again, and the beat, which comes courtesy of Jackie Rob (not one individual, but an emcee/production duo composed of Slang and Concise) adds to the cut’s unique vibe with some unconventional percussion.  If this promo single leaves you wanting more, check out the group’s Biggie-inspired Larger than Life (available now for free download).

This was kinda cool, but really just alright. The production was cool and I like the energy it came wit. All of the rappers on here are alright, but nothing that kept me really interested. The hook was not interesting enough to keep the song interesting, as it was just some more of their uninteresting rapping, so its just alright for me...

I have never heard of these guys, and I wasn't very impressed. It's not that it was that bad, just nothing new. I am always looking for something original and cool and this isn't doin' it.

I don't think the beat is bad necessarily, but it's the best part of this song which makes this no better than OK.

Today is minimal feedback day, people. Keep up the great feedback/comments!!!

Love the beat and the flow. Scott Storch would be happy with the production results. I'm breaking the cycle, this is rotation for sure.

this is ok, they tried goin to hard style on the beat that sounds kinda fun, its ok, just doesnt have that appealing sounds to it... dont like the hook too much, it sounds alright, just dont like the lyrics

i disagree. i think the lyrics are better than the beat. the beat is tight tho so i think its a good overall record. better than much of whatever else is out. seen video on music box too out here in nyc.

The song has some dope energy, could def. throw it in my set and rock it in the club...hook is catchy and lyrics/flow get the message across well for this lane... definitely want to hear more...i think some ppl w/ the low ratings gotta get out the basement and take off the ipod headphones and hit the club
