Selfocracy is the debut studio album by Belgian singer Loïc Nottet. It was released in digital and physical formats on 31 March 2017 by Sony Music Entertainment. Nottet rose to fame in 2014 when participating in "The Voice Belgique" and went on to finish fourth during the 2015 Eurovision Song Contest with "Rhythm Inside". For his debut album, Nottet wanted creative control and wrote some of the material by himself, while collaborating with writer Army Morrey and producer Alexandre Germys on a majority of the songs. When composing music, Nottet would watch films without sound for inspiration, specifically "Beauty and the Beast " (1946), "Changeling" (2008), and "Alice in Wonderland" (2010). An electropop album influenced by genres including hip hop, experimental music and pop rock, "Selfocracy" features Nottet lyrically expressing his vision of modern society and addresses topics including toleration, harassment, stereotypes, narcissism, egocentrism and egoism. The singer himself described "Selfocracy" as a concept album and cited the mirror as a symbol for the entire record.
