Glamaticus’ Ajabu ya Maat [July 21st] is themed after the ancient kemetic civilization of Afrika and the principles of creation, particularly Ma'at.

Ma'at was the Goddess and the abstract ideal of truth, created by Ra from his quintessential light.
The release represents and embodies a reconnection to songwriter Derrick Shadrack’s ancestry and paying tribute to that life force, the energy of creation that continues to flow through both him and the world. The album is an inspiration for others to learn about the true history of Afrika, Afrikans and the significance of the timeless ancient wisdoms and ingenuity that have given this world the art of living. Ajabu ya Maat is now available for pre-order, and will be officially released this July on all digital + streaming platforms!
