สมเด็จ [SOMDEJ] by PISITAKUN

“Somdej” has many meanings in Thai society. One of them refers to Somdej amulets, which are the most popular and most expensive sacred amulets. People believe they possess supernatural powers that protect against danger and bring mercy, favor, and popularity.

Another meaning of “Somdej” in prison slang refers to someone who has money and influence inside the prison. Yet another meaning of “Somdej” is a title used in front of highly respected monks or members of royal families.

There is a story about a mafia figure who wore a Somdej amulet. He was able to survive bomb attacks and several assassination attempts, escaping them miraculously.

Later, he was assassinated again, this time with a large amount of military-grade weapons. He placed a Somdej amulet in his mouth, hoping it would protect him from the hail of bullets fired at him. After the incident, rescuers found that he had died, yet his body showed not a single wound.

The meaning of “Somdej” in this album is intended as a blessing for the listeners—like a Somdej amulet that quietly protects and watches over them, allowing them to live safely, survive, and grow ever more prosperous and wealthy.
