Da’ T.R.U.T.H – Set The Bar

Emanuel drops a new track from his new self-titled album “Emanuel.” This is an album you need to listen to all the way through.

This powerful and thought-provoking track starts with an orchestral string intro. This usage of the strings is a pleasantly unexpected addition to a hip-hop, rap track. Upbeat and intense SET THE BAR informs listeners that Da Truth is setting the standard. The lyrics strategically tell the story of his humble beginnings in the industry and how his current status is all because “I put in the work.” Nothing was given to him. The song is driven and unified by the continuous and jarring string melody.

Da Truth creatively uses rhythm to emphasize the words. The chorus, “I set the pace, I set the bar” keeps the focus on his message of hard work. He has developed his own sound and is no longer caught in the trap of sounding like anyone else. Da Truth ends the track by informing everyone that “He can’t miss this moment!”
