London-based rapper and visionary artist Savvie returns with fire and focus on his latest single, “Melanated Militant” — a politically potent hip-hop anthem infused with gospel textures and cinematic energy. The single arrives ahead of
his upcoming album, Divine Soldier, due for release in Q4 2025 via One Shoe Records.
Produced by Splited, “Melanated Militant” is a call to clarity— confronting societal distractions, political unrest, and
spiritual confusion with lyrical power and precision. Savvie’s dynamic vocal performance weaves through a bed of tight, orchestral production, encouraging listeners to push beyond illusion and “raise their frequency” in an era of noise and uncertainty.
“‘Melanated Militant’ is about seeing beyond the illusion and finding your power in clarity — mentally, politically,
spiritually,” says Savvie. “It sets the cinematic tone for the album, but not the overall vibe — tracks like ‘Lieutenant in
the Wind’ and ‘Man in the Mirror’ are more representative of where the full project goes.”
