Trae Tha Truth is a Houston hip-hop hero. The rapper is so beloved by his home city that every July 22 is celebrated as Trae Day. As a long-time member of the Screwed Up Click, his underground credentials are fully in check, while he first came on the scene as part of the Guerilla Maab with Z-Ro and Dougie D. '03's Losing Composure kickstarted his solo career and paired his baritone voice and tales of redemption over low slung, bass heavy beats. Showing the respect he gets outside his neighbourhood, artists like Big Boi and Lupe Fiasco have called on Trae for guest spots.
