Tru Spot!™ is a social music platform designed to support Nigerian artists, fans, local music and the entertainment world at large. The site is described as the hottest spot online to discover the latest and hottest music straight from Nigeria (or Naija).
Tru Spot! connects users who share similar tastes, bringing the artists they love closer via interviews, chat sessions and more. It also provides live and custom radio streams, music ringtones for mobile phones, wallpapers, and more.
How it works
Music artists upload their tracks to Tru Spot! servers for fans to listen, rate, review, and share. The goal was to collectively build the largest African social music platform and community. Other features included forums, blogs, videos, radio, chat, events, free MP3 and video downloads, and a customizable radio module letting fans play their favourite artist's music from anywhere in the world.
Tru Spot! was founded by Ikenna "IKE" Orizu, together with a team of music-obsessed DJs, developers and creative professionals from around the world.
Loy's take:
"Really, I could tell a site rocks by the look and feel of it. I've been playing around the site ever since I stumbled upon it, and I'm still digging it. Tru Spot! is truly the Nigerian Social Music Revolution! Take my word!"
