Ego & Self

Oktae’s second album is a set of life-focused reflections, moving from the search for an “Intentional Flow” through regret, strained connection and the effort to feel at home in oneself. The titles tell part of the story: “I miss me more than I miss you” turns a breakup-shaped refrain toward self-recovery, while “Not Your Enemy” makes a case for empathy and community.

Brief interludes—“Tell ya my mind,” “Sickgirl peptalk” and “Quality”—break up the songs like entries in a personal conversation. The closing pair, “One Eye On Tomorrow” and “Keep Healing,” brings the album back to presence, patience and continuing on.
