Truth Hurts, born Shari Watson on October 10, 1971, in St. Louis, Missouri, is an American R&B singer who made a significant mark on the music industry in the early 2000s. She first came into the spotlight with her debut album, "Truthfully Speaking," in 2002, propelled by her hit single "Addictive," which featured a sample from Lata Mangeshkar's song and a rap verse by Rakim. The track became a global sensation, blending Indian music elements with R&B and hip-hop, showcasing Truth Hurts' unique style and powerful vocals. Her career, managed by Dr. Dre at the time, promised a fresh direction in the R&B genre with its innovative soundscapes.

Over the years, Truth Hurts continued to explore and evolve her musical style, releasing singles that often blend R&B with soulful melodies and introspective lyrics. Despite facing challenges and navigating a competitive industry, her discography, including works like "Ready Now" and "RnB Love," exemplifies her resilience and dedication to her craft. Her music, including recent releases such as "Nothing Lasts Forever (Original)" and the DJ Mysterons remix of "R&B Love," reflects her ongoing journey and experimentation within the genre. While she may not have maintained the commercial peak of her early hits, Truth Hurts remains a respected figure in R&B for her contributions and the distinctiveness she brought to the music scene.
