Proud To Be Here is the perfect distillation of Trace's art, displaying once again his ability to pour emotional truth into his music, whether it is of the tender or the rowdy variety. The project celebrates committed love in songs like 'Million Dollar View,' 'That's What You Get,' and 'Always Gonna Be That Way,' the joys of the simple life in 'Days Like This' and 'Poor Folks,' the lighter side in 'It's A Woman Thang' and 'Love Buzz,' and life's highest priorities in 'It's Who You Know.'
