Over You

SOPHIA, CAN YOU HEAR US?

HUMAN STORIES

Vent; or, poems for post nut clarity.

Nna is a reflective song. Where B.O.M looks back at the many moments that shaped him this far. From roundabouts with his childhood friend King dah scavenging for female attention in the twilight hours of a night out to When some of his own friends  didnt believe he was a rapper worth listening to. 


The song is one of B.O.M's highest acclaimed singles to date. With it's witty punchlines, catchy hook, multi-layered lyrical dexterity as well as deep storyline all inside the potpourri of Hamster on the beats production influence.

Written in 2012 and released in 2013 when I was 15. This is the re-release. The Revamped version

Light Up (with Dr Umar Johnson)

This is a track inspired by my struggles with MDD. I wrote it on a hospital bed after yet another attempt at taking my own life. Inspired by the trials I read about in Maya Angelous life. I was moved to write a small list of reasons why I caged bird might want to still sing. Why I keep writing. 


Artcover by Dandy Fos. 
Instrumental by Sleeping at last for Saturn


I Know Why The Caged Bird Sings

Inspired by M. Rumbi -hence the the Artwork.

The song details various elements that hinge on being African and staying religious . Asking the listeners not to compromise themselves for the sake of abstractions. It reminds us of where we come from and staying true to yourself while arming yourself with what's necessary. it features a guitar solo from Moise Archipe and instrumentals by M. Rumbi and Moise .

South African Rapper/ Poet/Producer/Writer B.O.M

Lyrics available on Genius: 
https://genius.com/The-bom-a-lot-lyrics

A lot; or, The moon is a kite for inconspicuous lotuses.

The fourth single from Theirs: an E.P. B.O.M nonchalantly talks about his focus and how that sets him apart from the rest of the industry.The song is a cover of the Mac Miller song "Fight the feeling". With references of "set it off" and one of its titular cast members Jada Pinkett Smith he not only talks about but demonstrates how he snaps when an instrumental is ever turned on.
