Proklaim delivers an emotional track with his most recent single, “PROSPERITY”, which is also tied to the events that triggered it and which will be remembered by listeners thanks to its cinematic beat. The released date was October 14, 2024, and the song was a reaction to the controversy surrounding Sean Combs’ arrest and the ensuing events. This situation became, for Proklaim, the initiative to create something powerful and insightful that combines introspection with social context.
From the very first beat, Proklaim wants to clarify about the power of this track. PROSPERITY was pre-recorded at Pen Pushaz Studios and has undergone mixing and mastering completed by Wojtek Majewski at Audio Art Namibia, thus producing a majestic and almost film-like quality in the song. The beat is rich in layers as thick, fierce, and intense, which complements Proklaim’s performance perfectly. His lyrics maintain the consistent theme of having a robust Wintersmith flow over thoughtful calmness. On this track, Proklaim’s works feature prominently. His style encompasses everything from reggae to hip hop and blends those genres with tales, drawing influences from prominent figures like Bob Marley, The Wu-Tang Clan, and Biggie. Similarly, lyricists highlight the importance of the song’s content. The work looks into the realities of being famous, having money, and being in trouble, with focused tension on Sean Combs, for example, to parse these larger societal matters – and oneself. Proklaim’s words already tell the story; his verses are truly sophisticated and each line testifies to his enthusiasm.
The song’s writing process proved to be no less motivating as well. The beginning verses were crafted by Proklaim the very next day – he could not wait to include all of the incredible emotions that he felt during the last writing session and built the two intro and bridge parts into a chorus. However, he did not finish the song – the third verse came between the two chorus parts the following day – and in such a manner, the song began to take shape. With PROSPERITY, Proklaim proves – no, he reaffirms that he is a force to be reckoned with in the industry. There are very few who can master such an art – solid music that speaks to our hearts and minds and is currently relevant. If this single is anything to go by, then one anticipates even better works from him that will stretch the limits and get people talking.
