about

Blackness is an angered musical response to the insidious ways racism is perpetuated in modern culture.

A surprise release to celebrate Black History Month. I get my name, Amaroun, from my ancestors, The Maroons, and have been reflecting on that ancestry over this month.

Blackness is a result of that reflection

lyrics

I wanna get rid of you
sick of you
feels so heavy
we've been through
nothing new

your not ready for my blackness @that
Your not ready for my queerness
I'm fearless

Feeling strange
(and we're dying)
It grates all the same
(and we're dying)
Gotta get me some sage
(and we're dying)
Deep in my rage
(till we're flying)

I wanna get rich like you
fuck you
your not ready
we've been through
Nothing new

your not ready for my blackness @that
Your not ready for my queerness
I'm fearless

Can you hear the agent it could never call faster
These days there's a new kind of slave master x2


Feeling strange
(and we're dying)
It grates all the same
(and we're dying)
Gotta get me some sage
(and we're dying)
Deep in my rage
(till we're flying)
