SHAME – Yamaahla
Classic Boom-Bap | Soul | Funk | Hip-Hop
“Shame” is more than a song — it’s a mirror.
Set against a classic early-90s boom-bap sound fused with Soul, Funk, and R&B, Yamaahla unpacks how shame-based parenting, humiliation, and verbal degradation shape identity long after childhood ends. This track exposes the difference between discipline that corrects behavior and shame that attacks the soul.
Many of us weren’t raised with guidance — we were raised with fear.
Not taught how to feel — but how to perform.
Not nurtured — but trained to disappear.
“Shame” explores how ridicule, tone, and constant belittling rewire a child’s brain, teaching them to lie, hide, overachieve, or vanish just to survive. What adults once called “tough love” becomes a lifelong internal voice — a drill sergeant that never clocks out.
This song speaks to: • Childhood emotional trauma
• Shame-based discipline
• High-functioning anxiety and perfectionism
• Identity wounds carried into adulthood
• Why silence feels safer than honesty
• Why relationships struggle without vulnerability
If you’ve ever felt like: – Making mistakes wasn’t allowed
– Asking for help felt dangerous
– You had to be perfect or invisible
– Your inner voice sounds harsher than anyone else
This song is for you.
Shame doesn’t retire.
It rebrands.
🎧 Listen. Reflect. Heal.
