About this record
Since its digital release in 2019, WE Grown NOW. is praised as one of TREE’s finest recordings by both fans and critics, even inspiring a full length film of the same name. His raps - sometimes sung, mostly off the top - combine the harsh reality of growing up in the notorious Cabrini-green projects of Chicago with the joys of being a father, husband and just being alive. As Jaap van der Doelen writes in the album’s liner notes, this “fearlessly earnest way he shares glimpses into his life is a key part of what makes WE Grown NOW. such a timeless work. (...) Tree is an everyman- rapper in a way not every man can be, like a rapping Robert Johnson that managed to survive to middle age.” The production is steeped in rich and vintage soul music, complementing TREE’s voice, whilst still having a firm low-end presence. Six years after its release the album is finally coming to vinyl courtesy of Waaghals records. Limited to 300 copies on “all blue everything” blue vinyl, with restored and expended artwork and liner notes detailing the creation of the album.
