AMY TRUE
Amy True has been described as “one of the most influential and talked about personalities in the Hip Hop, Soul, and Jazz scene,” delivering a fusion of progressive sounds alongside a steady stream of rebellious socio-political rap and soulful melodic song since the late 2000s.
Named ‘One to Watch’ by the MOBO Awards, with early projects Subject of My Environment and Tryna Get By, she later became a member of heavyweight rap group Caxton Press, winning Best Hip Hop Album for Shame The Devil by Wordplay Magazine in 2012. In 2017, she published her much-acclaimed debut solo album Eleven, showcasing Amy True’s unique crossover of genres, unifying soul and hip hop with features from renowned jazz musicians including Nubya Garcia, Joe Armon-Jones (Ezra Collective), Shabaka Hutchins, and Biscuit (Speakers Corner Quartet).
