Yugen Blakrok – Being Here

Yugen Blakrok’s “Being Here” is the sound of a mind too sharp for its own good. The track, from her new album The Illusion of Being, wraps dense philosophy in hypnotic beats—like a riddle you can nod your head to. Produced by Kanif the Jhatmaster, it’s a meditation that doesn’t relax so much as it unsettles, with Yugen’s voice cutting through the haze like a blade through smoke.

The South African rapper has never chased trends, and this album proves why she doesn’t need to. Over 13 tracks, she balances Afro-mysticism, street wisdom, and cosmic wordplay without breaking a sweat. “Being Here” sits in the middle of it all, a moment of eerie calm in a storm of ideas. It’s not background music—it’s the kind of track that demands you lean in, then leaves you wondering what you just heard.
