Have you ever felt that you weren’t the main character in your own story. It’s a feeling that, quite honestly, sucks. On “Truman Show,” Merges gives us a look into the mind of someone going through that sort of thing. Merge’s vocals, both rich and haunting, is perfect for this song as it allows the lyrics to be that much more deep, emotional and relatable. I think that it doesn’t hurt that Merges works well with her producer, L3GION. The veteran producer crafted the perfect instrumental for this song, as it also sticks with you. And just like the lyrics, they have a richness to them. I love the message here, that we don’t have to settle for less than our worth. I love that this song advocates for those who may feel like they are stuck in someone’s shadow. Check out the song above and remember to support dope music in all its forms.
