BOOM SZN: ANATII’s Explosive New Era Begins with Global Album Release
South African multi-hyphenate ANATII is back, and this time, it’s bigger, bolder, and louder than ever. BOOM SZN, his highly anticipated 14-track album, officially marks his first project under the groundbreaking partnership with gamma., the global media and technology enterprise co-founded by former Apple executive Larry Jackson and record executive Ike Youssef.
BOOM SZN is a celebration of life, a fusion of amapiano and hip-hop rhythms with soulful R&B nuances, all tied together by the unmistakable Bushman Sound. It’s more than an album; it’s a statement, an invitation to step into ANATII’s world where everything is booming—from beats and vibes to aspirations and triumphs. Featuring collaborations with Yumbs, AL XAPO, Baby S.O.N, and rap icon Busta Rhymes, the project is a masterclass in sonic storytelling, blending rich textures with lyrics that uplift, inspire, and celebrate the beauty of coming together.
Speaking on the album, ANATII shares: “BOOM SZN is about ushering in a new chapter with explosive energy. It’s aspirational, it’s joyful, and it’s deeply personal. I wanted it to resonate not just with South Africans but with people all over the world.”
The journey to BOOM SZN has been one of intentionality and reinvention. For ANATII, whose career spans over a decade with accolades like a Grammy win for co-writing Beyoncé’s Brown Skin Girl, this album reflects his evolution as an artist and a storyteller. Recorded at TeaTime Studios in collaboration with some of the most exciting producers in the game, BOOM SZN is infused with the spirit of celebration and resilience.
Lead single SEY’HLANGENE, featuring Yumbs and AL XAPO, has already captured hearts with its infectious amapiano beat and triumphant message of unity. “SEY’HLANGENE is about everything coming together beautifully, both sonically and spiritually,” ANATII says of the track.
This album also cements ANATII’s partnership with gamma., a collaboration that highlights his mission to take the Bushman Sound global. “gamma. is more than just a partner—they’re a platform for us to tell our stories on the biggest stages,” ANATII reflects. “With BOOM SZN, we’re not just making music; we’re making a movement.”
As fans worldwide prepare to enter the BOOM SZN, ANATII promises more than just an album—it’s a cultural moment. From the streets of Johannesburg to the global stage, this project is a reminder that African music is not just here to participate; it’s here to dominate.
BOOM SZN is now available on all streaming platforms. Brace yourselves—because the Bushman Sound is here to stay.
