Urban vocalist Truth Hurts began her career in grand fashion with
the aid of Dr. Dre. The enormously successful West Coast rap
producer signed her to his Aftermath label in the wake of his
chart-topping productions for Mary J. Blige ('Family Affair') and
Eve ('Let Me Blow Your Mind'), around the same time Dre presented
his former songwriting partner Knoc-Turn'al and the return of
golden-age legend Rakim. Just as he did for those two, Dre crafted a
sure-fire lead single for Truth Hurts, "Addictive". Though Dre
doesn't actually produce the song himself - DJ Quik does - he
applied his stamp of approval, arranging for Rakim to duet with
Truth Hurts and getting the song incredible exposure on both radio
and MTV.
"Addictive" was recorded in 2002 for Dr. Dre's Aftermath label. One
of the label's few R&B hits, "Addictive" features a guest rap from
Rakim, and is based around a Hindi music sample, which eventually
brought on a $500 million lawsuit against Aftermath. The song was
her only one to chart on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number
nine, and selling over 600,000 copies in the US.
