Transcendence (stylized as TRANSCENDENCE) is the debut studio album by Pakistani rapper-producer Adil Omar. It was released independently on July 8, 2018, with a film of the same title to accompany it.[1][2][3][4]
The visual album was also directed by Adil Omar. The album was recorded in 2017 in Islamabad and features Elliphant, SNKM, Talal Qureshi and Tim Armstrong of Rancid. The album also included recreations of 1970's and 80's era Lollywood soundtracks, but rather than relying on sampling, Omar reached out to some of the original creators such as Ustad Tafu and M. Arshad and hosted live sessions in his home studio Bisonopolis, Islamabad.[5][6][7][8]
The instrumental version of the album was released on October 8, 2018.[9]
