Background[edit]

Jenkins described Trees & Truths as his "most lyrical work" and explained the significance of the mixtape's title to its content: "It's a description of topics I view as truth and how they are affected by 'The trees’, the trees being weed, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, and a representation of people."[3] The mixtape features fellow Chicago rappers Saba and Noname, along with Jean Deaux and SolarFive. Producers that contributed to the mixtape include OnGaud, Saba, Ohbliv, Mark Gee, Such N Such, Nick Peacock and Plain and Simple.
