Choke Enough (stylised in all lowercase) is the debut studio album by French musician, singer and producer Oklou. It is slated for release on February 7, 2025, via True Panther Sounds. The album features guest appearances by Swedish rapper and singer Bladee, and American musician Underscores. It was supported by the singles "Family and Friends", "Harvest Sky", the title track, and "Take Me by the Hand".

Similarly to her 2020 mixtape Galore, Choke Enough was made primarily in collaboration with Canadian musician Casey MQ. The album took Oklou two and a half years to finish, and explores "the quest of meaning". She stated:

Choke Enough is a very intense album for me. It's filled with directions, tentatives and irregularities, reflecting on my last years on this planet as my heart and conscience has really decentered from myself.

Additionally, Oklou released two remixes of "Harvest Sky" by Danny L Harle and Underscores (under the moniker Milkfish).
