Tru Rez Crew is the last
of the bands from the Mic article, with a mention of their video, "I'm a
Lucky One":
One of the reasons that
particular song is mentioned is the inclusion of Inuit throat singers on the
track. This feels seems appropriate.
With their name it is
impossible not to think of 2 Live Crew, and a lot of their music that will
remind you of 2 Live Crew and Snoop Dogg and that segment of rap. Still, Tru
Rez Crew in no way limits themselves to that, pulling in grooves and vocal
accompaniments from other genres, often getting on a good funk.
The throat singers may vary
a bit farther off that musical path, but bringing in Inuit performers is very
in keeping with the band's theme of uniting along diverse aboriginal
experiences.
It is not clear that the
band is currently active (the Mic article itself is from 2015), but there are
several tracks available via ReverbNation and Soundcloud.
