Obie Trice hasn’t released new music in a while. The last song he released was ‘A*s‘ in March, 2016 which was supposed to be the first taste of his next album. He comes back with a song today named ‘Truth 2 Power’ and it’s an interesting choice indeed. On the song, the Shady Records artist is attacking the “undercover” gay men in Hip-Hop who don’t come out in the open.
Obie dropped the song along with a detailed message on his Facebook so that people don’t take the song in the wrong i.e. him attacking gay people in general. Stream it below.
“Look i have nothing against gay men, this dont mean im not opinionated… if i can be called a Nigga , you can be called a Fruit.. what i dont respect is undercover gay men in the hiphop industry …My mix & mastering guy wouldnt work on this record due to his social environment , which includes gay friends!! Why am i explaining because for 200 yrs we got no explanation so why Not!! Throughout the song it may sound contradictory to what im saying, but my point is undercover gay men in Hiphop should speak their Truth .. Cant say nothing about the gays but if you get caught with a Transgender evrybody got something to Say maaannn Fuck yall!!! Take it as you may!! Trice!!!”
