Product Capabilities & Recent Releases
However, the enduring popularity of the track among fans—despite its unreleased status—speaks to McRae’s songwriting prowess. Her audience has always valued her ability to articulate specific, painful emotions. While "Greedy" brought in the masses, tracks like "Truth Is" retain the core fanbase that fell in love with her writing on EPs like Too Young to Be Sad . The song serves as a reminder that beneath the polished choreography and the slick production of the Think Later campaign, McRae remains, at her core, a diary-style songwriter.
That is the Tate McRae magic trick. She takes a feeling you can’t name (post-breakup ego vs. loneliness) and boils it down to a TikTok-ready hook. It isn’t about love; it’s about vanity, memory, and the distortion of time.
are you planning to post this on so I can tweak the hashtags or format? Tate McRae - Truth Is (Unreleased)
“truth is” sits uncomfortably—and beautifully—between these stools. It was likely written and produced during the same sessions with Ryan Tedder and Lostboy (the architects of “greedy”), but it rejects the maximalist confidence of its hit sibling.
While "Truth Is" remains officially locked away, its legacy persists as a testament to Tate McRae’s prolific output during her stay in LA. It serves as a reminder that for every chart-topping hit like "run for the hills," there is a hidden gem that reveals a different side of the artist. Whether it eventually sees the light of day on a future project or remains a legendary piece of fan lore, "Truth Is" is a vital chapter in the story of one of pop music's most exciting new icons.
Sonically, “truth is” feels incomplete by design—not unfinished, but deliberately skeletal. The beat is a muted, finger-snapped trap-lite pattern, reminiscent of Billie Eilish’s Happier Than Ever ballads. There is no euphoric drop. Instead, a wobbling, low-pass-filtered synth pad provides the harmonic bed while McRae’s vocal sits front and center, double-tracked in the verses but starkly alone in the pre-chorus.
