Rising Danish star Wohran opens a powerful new chapter with his latest single, “True Story” – a mellow, soul-baring cut that blends old-school hip-hop energy with introspective lyricism and effortless cool. The track serves as the latest preview of his upcoming debut album, Alterity, due August 15th.
Over a smooth, jazz-tinged beat that feels tailor-made for late-night introspection, Wohran delivers bars that are as vulnerable as they are affirming. His voice, relaxed but purposeful, glides over the instrumental with an almost meditative calm, offering reflections on pain, mental resilience, and the pursuit of inner peace. “Strolling through a life filled with pain without letting it affect your inner peace,” as Wohran puts it, becomes more than just a line – it’s the heartbeat of the song.
There’s a clear lineage in Wohran’s influences – Mac Miller, Saba, Big L, MF DOOM, and The Alchemist – but he never feels derivative. Instead, “True Story” channels the warmth and wit of his inspirations while carving out a sound that’s unmistakably his own. The production, crafted by Wohran himself, leans into dusty textures and spacious loops, grounding the track in the classic era of conscious rap while keeping it sonically fresh.
The song’s slow-burn creation process, pieced together over several months from scattered journal entries, adds to its authenticity. Every lyric feels lived-in, every bar an attempt to alchemise struggle into self-affirmation. And in an age of performative vulnerability, “True Story” feels rare: grounded, gentle, and quietly courageous.
With this release, Wohran doesn’t just showcase his lyrical talent – he offers a glimpse into a philosophy. “True Story” is music for anyone navigating personal storms, looking for proof that peace is still possible. If this is any indication of what Alterity holds, the release can’t come soon enough.
“True Story” is out now on all platforms.
