True Story is the only album by American hip hop duo B.G.'z, released on July 29, 1995, by Cash Money. The B.G.'z, formed in 1995, were a group consisting of "Lil Doogie" (B.G.), who was 14 years old, and "Baby D" (Lil Wayne), who was 12.[3] This album was re-released in 1999 as a B.G. album, when Cash Money Records got a distribution deal with Universal Records. It sold over 20,000 copies at the time of its release.
"True Story" and "F*ck Big Boy" are diss tracks towards rapper Mystikal and Big Boy Records, another independent label from New Orleans, Louisiana.[4]
