New York, NY (Top40 Charts) Originally from Rochester, New York and now living in Las Vegas, I.Am.Tru.Starr is surrounded by the best and worst elements of what it means to be alive in 2020 as a young black man. Something's Gotta Change is a track which I.Am.Tru.Starr sees as a comment on society everywhere:
"My family explained to me when I was young that Emmett Till (whose lynching was a major influence on the emergence of
Black Rights in 50s and 60s America) was a distant cousin, and what he went through has always helped to fuel the passion in my music".
Something's Gotta Change is the first track to be released from I.Am.Tru.Starr's forthcoming album, Viva, which he describes as a celebration of life and all the important things in it that make it worth living - good, bad and ugly.
"I am a literal walking story of redemption. Been shot, shot at, shot back, sold drugs to people who were like family and a host of other shit that shall go unspoken that led me to spending five years in federal prison. Though I've paid my debt to the government, I've still yet to pay my debt back to society and the people that I had a hand in causing harm to. So, I attempt to do that through music. Giving people hope through song. This society is sedated and I wanna do my part in waking 'em up"
