Stogie T’s upcoming album “aNomy” now has a tracklist which reveals songs featuring A-Reece, Nasty C, FLVME, Maggz, Thandiswa, Bokani Dyer and a few others.
“I am a story teller. And this is a story of a dream deferred, a dream fallen and realisation that this world is not our true home. It’s a humble attempt to document the rancour and the residue of the places where my kin are both buried and born. The beauty and the bruise. The inheritance and the indictment.
“The cover is built like an ancient mural of fractured tiles, broken edges, a face and humanity in pieces. The title comes from the word anomie meaning moral drift, a collapse of shared values. Some songs are the old me fighting the new me. Some are a lament. Some are a rebuke. All of them are trying to find what still rings true when the scaffolding of identity, faith, culture and ego starts to fall away.
“The artwork itself is a collaboration born from Felicity Steenkamp’s photography, reshaped through Luckymong’s illustration, and finally marked by my own hand.
“ANOMY is not nostalgia. It’s reconstruction. It’s me sitting with the rubble long enough to build again, not for applause, but for truth. Not for brand alignment, but for purpose. Not for escape, but for witness. If this interests you at all please hit the comment ANOMY and I’ll send you the preorder link. Regards.
Soli Deo Gloria.”
