“Pomps and Pride” is Keznamdi‘s sharp social commentary, taking aim directly at superficiality and vanity in a world obsessed with outward appearances. The song is built on a vibrant, almost hypnotic reggae groove, providing a catchy, danceable contrast to its very serious message. The production is tight, using bright horns and a steady rhythm section that ensures the track is both infectious and thought-provoking.
Lyrically, Keznamdi urges listeners to look past the external show—the “pomps and pride”—and focus on genuine substance and integrity. He questions the value of fleeting material possessions and false status, pushing a message of self-awareness and conscious living. As a crucial pivot point on the BLXXD and FYAH album, the song serves as a vital reminder to stay true to one’s roots and avoid getting lost in the noise of superficiality.
