MARLON X RULLA’s ‘Trauma Patient’ is a thought-provoking powerful anthem – that not only pushes the boundaries of their collective storytelling – but explores the challenges of using morality as a mask, while diving deeper into convictions.
Marlon‘s vocals, both soulful and buttery, intertwine seamlessly with the bars delivered by Rulla, creating a harmonic atmosphere that pushes the song to an electrifying level. The work between the two artists’ respective voices are highted through a dynamic that grows in intensity across the song’s 3-minute and 20-second runtime. Even though the duo have only released one song previously, you’d think they’ve been working together for years, as the duo’s prowess is showcased with ease.
“‘Trauma Patient’ is a thought provoking expression of one of the many anxieties of an Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander person in Australia,” MARLON says about the story of the song. “It places responsibility on listeners to challenge the behaviors and values of the term “Ally” and define what that title means in its truest form. Trauma Patient in its essence, is a challenge of today’s societal WorldView of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and the narrative that our successes are formed or created, and actioned from a deficit model based origin.”
