Hometown Sounds

Silver Spring rapper Trus Real‘s new EP Acceleration doesn’t drop until next year, but his new video for “Take Me Away” came out yesterday. On this narrative song, TR eschews boom baps for an acoustic guitar loop and soft vocals from Amanda Lee as he narrates short profiles of various characters whose problems make them want to lose themselves in music. If you’ve never been to the regular Sunday afternoon event where their paths all cross, you’re missing out on a crucial element of life in this town.
