“Proklaim’s ‘CALL’ is a testament to the evolving nature of hip-hop. His ability to blend the gritty essence of Boom Bap with contemporary production techniques creates a sound that’s both nostalgic and forward-thinking. It’s the kind of track that would make legends like Nas and DJ Premier proud, while still appealing to fans of modern trap and UK rap.”

His previous single “Kingz,” featuring Namibian Music Award Winner Rapper Romi, caught the attention of MTV Base, signalling his potential to break into the global market. With “CALL,” he’s not only building on this momentum but also carving out a unique space for himself in the international hip-hop community.
The artist’s motto, “Stay true to intuition,” underpins his creative journey and musical essence. This philosophy shines through in “CALL,” where Proklaim’s authentic sound and soul-stirring lyrics captivate listeners from the first beat. His work stands as a bridge between the raw, unfiltered energy of gangsta rap and the introspective, poetic nature of conscious hip-hop, creating a sound that resonates with a wide audience.
