About This Album

The Static at Midnight is the sequel to Midnight Gold, diving deep into the aftermath—emotional detachment, inner power, and rebirth. The production sharpens with distorted synths, heavier drums, and moodier progressions. This is Marley stepping into her power, no longer the muse but the mirror. Each track feels like night pushing back against its own shadow.

From the igniting opener "The Spark" to the hopeful closer "New Light," this album explores transformation through darkness. The experimental Afropunk influence creates a sonic landscape where vulnerability becomes strength, and detachment becomes liberation.
