True Story is the new album from Terror Squad. The group consists of Fat Joe, Remy, Prospect, Armageddon and Tony Sunshine. The group has deep roots within New York which is expressed on the album.

1 Nothings gonna stop me
2 Yeah Yeah Yeah
3 Hum drum
4 Lean Back
5 Take me home
6 Streets of NY
7 Bring em bck
8 Yes dem to def
9 Pass away
10 Let them things go
11 Thunder in the air
12 Terror era

Terror Squad hit the scene with the top tune 'Lean Back' which is currently my favourite joint at the moment. Fat Joe is a massive producer within the USA, and has worked with many artists like Big Pun, Ja Rule and Jadakiss.

On my first hearing of the album I was a little disappointed with it. I bought the album on the basis of my liking for 'Lean Back' and the other various work of Fat Joe in the past. I expected that this album would be full of banging hip hop beats but this certainly isnt the case with this album. Instead this album states the tough lifestyle within the American backstreets and particularly in the bronx. However the album does contain Lean Back and Let them things go which is an absolutely brilliant track. The other tracks on this album are more thought provoking. As you would expect from this genre of music the album does contain a lot of explicit language so the 'Parental Adivsory' label has been slapped on the front.

Overall I love this album and it is well worth a purchase for those who loved Lean Back or those who enjoy the hip hop/rap genre. Terror Squad can only go from strength to strength with this album and I look forward to their future releases.
