God Struck

TRUCK NORTH X NEON BROWN - CRACKER CHRIST B/W GOD STRUCK

Salutations from the Metaverse!


Neon Brown's and Truck North's two new singles, “Cracker Christ” and “God God Struck” take you to church and to the gritty streets of Philly. Both tracks are available on Brown's Bandcamp and will be on all DSPs by the end of the month.

The two new singles feature Brown’s warm and inviting production. “Cracker Christ" has a more subtle, soulful, somber vibe, that takes you to alter while “God Struck” is an agitated, synth-driven lesson of survival of the fittest that leaves you stranded on a one-way street.


Truck had a few words to say about both tracks:

Cracker Christ

"This song is about trust. Trust in a divine being that me (we) as displaced black peoples were only introduced to during slavery. This introduction was used as a method to “civilize” the so-called savage and establish a pecking order. The concept of a white Jesus is absurd given his geographical origin and it was truly one of the most wicked forms of white supremacy. The song is about deciding to believe in a God who relates to the god within. Same powers, same parables but in a divine being who looks as I do. All while noting the issues that come with any organized religion."

God Struck

"This is about inner-city living and what separates those who ironically are most alike. Death, poverty, perseverance, drugs, and the hope of getting out somehow. Through all of it, we’re all in the same boat essentially."

Brown states, "these two tracks represent a very real and terrifying vicissitude. Although there are plenty of songs, books, and speeches to gain knowledge on the absurdity this Country has thrived off of, not much has taken place to change the situation. This is a narrative that must be pushed and talked about. I urge anyone who listens to these songs and relates to them, to speak on the subject, i.e. white people. Nothing will change unless we do."

Both singles are available for purchase on Neon Brown’s Bandcamp and will be on all DSPs by the end of the month. This is the beginning of Brown’s push to release a project a month for the next 12 months. Keep an eye out for the next one coming in December!
