Alyona Savranenko's fourth studio album — conceptual rap about contemporary Ukrainian motherhood. Release 8 May 2026.
alyona alyona presents the fourth studio album 'MOM' on 8 May 2026 (before Mother's Day) on Enko Records label (her personal label, founded 2022). This is a 14-track conceptual rap album (total duration 52 minutes) about contemporary Ukrainian motherhood in wartime. The album is feminist rap in the same sense as 'Riot Grrrl' of the 1990s, but adapted to the post-2022 Ukrainian context. Album structure: 14 'motherhood stories' from different generations and social groups: I. 'School Girl' (16-year-old who became pregnant in Mariupol 2022); II. 'Young Wife' (24-year-old evacuated to Poland); III. 'Folk Teacher' (44-year-old on the front as medic); IV. 'Refugee Grandmother' (67-year-old in Germany); V. 'Tactical Mama' (32-year-old self-veteran); VI-XIV — 9 other stories. The texts use real interview fragments from 24 women-mothers (recorded 2024-2025). Musically — alyona alyona's signature style (boom-bap rap with folk-traditional samples), but this time with emphasis on female vocal character: 8 of 14 tracks contain backing vocal parts from invited women vocalists (Jerry Heil on 2 tracks — see PR3, Tina Karol on 1, ONUKA on 1). Recording took place at Studio MUSCOLO in Kyiv (2025). The album releases in formats: digital streaming, CD digipack with 32-page booklet (with photos of 24 album heroines), 180g vinyl in crimson-red version (limited 2000 copies, price 32€).
