Truth Enola

Truth Enola has been played over 10 times on NTS, first on 16 October 2014. Truth Enola's music has been featured on 13 episodes.

TRUTH ENOLA, is known in the Hip Hop world for rhythmically fusing hip hop, R & B, soul as well as the blues, and most importantly mastering the art of creating catchy unforgettable hooks. Truth E-No-La a.k.a. Pounds Mayor, continues to break all the rules in the development of his sophomore album. POUNDS MAYOR, is pound for pound one of the most well rounded MC’s since the birth of hip hop and makes a lifetime guarantee to “Do It His Way.” Truth takes no prisoners and offers no apologies when he calls out the snakes, frauds, and backstabbers. Expect BIG but Honorable events from this man as he loves the ladies and swaggers as his own power broker.

His husky sound first wrapped around listeners with his performance on “Pony Ride” on De La Soul’s “Stakes Is High” album. In 1999 Truth dropped his first single entitled “May Day” on Maseo’s Bear Mountain Records. As evidenced by his discography, since that time Truth has consistently recorded or been a featured lyricist on numerous releases. He has delivered stellar performances on the Jigmasta’s critically acclaimed album, “Infectious”, and on recordings with Kwest, Prince Paul, Rubix, and Def Jam Japan’s first rap artist, Dabo.

An experienced artist and performer, Truth has received the respect and love of hip hop fans worldwide. He toured the United States twice with De La Soul and performed at numerous international venues including Brazil, London, Austria, Sweden, Switzerland and Germany. Truth has appeared in videos with De La Soul, Common, the Roots, Will Smith, Tribe Called Quest and the Jungle Brothers. He has also performed with Common, De La Soul, Goodie Mob, The Roots, Mos Def, A Tribe Called Quest, Fishbone, 311, George Clinton, Maseo Parker, Pharcyde, Yellow Man, Pharoah Monch, KRS-One and a host of other artists that respect the streets that gave life to their careers.

Truth has been featured in XXL, The Source, Vibe, Rap pages, Elemental Magazine and on BET. Additional reviews of his outstanding work may be found on allhiphop.com, soundslam.com, prefixmag.com and ballerstatus.net.

In 2004 he released his debut album “6 O’Clock Straight”, followed by “Ten Past 6: An Audio History of Truth Enola” in 2005. It lyrically tackled everything from the reality of gangsta' life and loss, to sexual escapades, to dysfunctional relationships. You get love, war, sex and truth all in one album with a few moments to just reflect on self. It was backed with a stellar list of producers including Celph Titled, Da Beatminerz, De La Soul, DJ Spinna, Fusion, Geology, Joe Blast, The Are, T. “The Beat Specialist” and Mr. Naso as well as Yuseff Harris. Featured artists included De La Soul, Phife Dawg, and Dragon from his own crew Mad Men Moss.

Under his alias Pounds Mayor, Truth will collaboratively release an interim album with well renowned DJ Cross Phada. The self titled album, PMP (Pounds Mayor-Phada), reflects a return to the hip hop era of the DJ and MC laced with a whole new sound that reflects the growth of hip hop into a genre with global appeal. In that vein, he has formed his own company, Red Diamond Global. The company’s primary mission is to network artists who are committed to creating music for the global marketplace and maintaining artistic as well as financial control of their product.

With the introduction of PMP, Truth a.k.a. Pounds Mayor and Cross Phada bring the fire to fans across the globe! ARE YOU READY?!!!
