Her work spans hip hop, neo-soul, jazz and pop, marked by sharp lyricism and emotional depth. TrueMendous has released multiple acclaimed projects, including her debut EP HUH?—with singles featured in the Adidas COLD.RDY campaign and the FIFA 21 soundtrack—and her full-length albums Misdiagnosis of Chyvonne Johnson and Great. On Purpose..
TrueMendous has performed at major festivals and events including Glastonbury, Boomtown and Nozstock, opened for acclaimed acts like Slum Village and The Four Owls, and participated in culturally significant projects such as La Biennale di Venezia and Commonwealth Games cultural showcases.
