Esoteric, yet blunt and uncomplicated as a fistfight, \u003cem\u003eSortilège\u003c\/em\u003e erases the line between urbane and urban. It’s a movie in a lucid dream, A Clockwork Négritude projected against the wall of a construction site.

Oh, and there are drums everywhere: drums that will rattle a hooptie and drums that whisper threats. Somehow, over the course of 14 tracks, Preservation seems to find his way to every instrument imaginable—yet each beat has room to breathe. Amidst this breakbeat symphony, 'Nandez’s unmistakable baritone glides purposefully, ever forward, a bristling warship in troubled waters. Every time the bass thumps, 'Nandez counterpunches.

It is an intriguing pairing; Haram is one-half of the duo 700 Bliss with rapper and poet Moor Mother and has several solo records under her belt—including 2025’s critically acclaimed \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/djharam.bandcamp.com\/album\/beside-myself\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eBeside Myself\u003c\/em\u003e (Hyperdub)\u003c\/a\u003e—and high-profile collaborations with BbyMutha, Fever Ray, Ghais Guevara, and Armand Hammer. Meanwhile, although \u003cem\u003eCritical Thot\u003c\/em\u003e is Sha Ray’s official debut album, her reputation as a next-wave talent precedes her. Haram got wise in 2022 when she saw Sha Ray perform at a show in Brooklyn. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“We spoke at the venue and after that I followed her on social media. She gave an incredible performance, so later on when she slid in my DMs asking for beats, I was already on board,” Haram explains.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAn Armand Hammer\/DJ Haram show in LA was the nexus for these connections to yield fruit. Sha Ray flew down from the Bay to link with Haram, and although the two didn’t end up recording anything that day, it was the springboard for the cross-country collaboration that culminated in \u003cem\u003eCritical Thot\u003c\/em\u003e. The whole album was made remotely: Haram cooking up beats in Brooklyn and sending them to Sha Ray, who would send back demos and notes. They got to know each other as artists, and as people, while they worked on this project.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“Haram and I have had so many overlapping experiences working as women in the music industry, which really enriched our bond. That, and her very striking approach to production, really inspired a lot of the writing on this record,” Sha Ray says.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat writing is razor sharp and refreshingly direct. Sha Ray quickly proves herself to be in a class of her own, navigating even the knottiest of DJ Haram productions without taking her foot off the gas. Haram digs deep into her bag with beats that run the gamut from experimental and abrasive to slinky fun to darkly foreboding. Percussive thuds and shots are layered with intricate details and soft linings. A trappy banger dissolves into a flood of strings. A sparse industrial soundscape slowly coheres into a cacophonous uppercut of a rap record. Sha Ray bobs and weaves her way through every drum break and synth with a defiant ease. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e“As a rapper I’m pretty exclusively interested in interrogating misogyny and sexuality in my work. \u003cem\u003eCritical Thot\u003c\/em\u003e is a deliberation on unapologetic feminine authority, while being very honest about the complicated truth of being a participant in self-objectification, and sexuality as a social currency,” Sha Ray elaborates. “This record focuses a lot on defining power in feminine sexuality as relational and ever-shifting, and thus inherently imperfect. However, it is a power that I have and I am going to use it.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCritical Thot\u003c\/em\u003e features contributions from Nappy Nina, JWords, and Archangel.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"backwoodzstudioz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48321419084024,"sku":"BWZ815cd","price":15.98,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2276\/3279\/files\/BWZ815cd-Critical-Thot_CD_mockup.png?v=1777863625"}],"url":"https:\/\/backwoodzstudioz.com\/collections\/cd.oembed?page=4","provider":"backwoodzstudioz","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
