Teasing his forthcoming album with a slew of much-hyped releases, including a collaboration with ARIA Award winner Missy Higgins for ‘Legacy Pt. 2’, ‘They Don’t Know’ featuring Thom Crawford, ‘Fly’ featuring Ngaiire and the triple j Hottest 100-placing ‘Bagi-la-m Bargan’ featuring fellow Butchulla songman Fred Leone, Birdz has steadily built the foundations for his sophomore release, LEGACY, arriving in full on November 19. LEGACY sees Birdz tap into his long-running vision that hip-hop is a powerful vehicle for driving messages of hope, empowerment and self-determination.
Across ten diverse and sharply executed tracks, Birdz reevaluates his core values by exploring the kind of legacy he’d like to leave behind for his family, specifically his young son, through a refreshed and unified lens of self-worth, potential and purpose. Further paying homage to his heritage as a proud Butchulla man, the LEGACY album artwork, incorporates colours inspired by his country of K’gari (Fraser island) and a split silhouette, representing three generations of great importance to the record’s fruition; Birdz, his father, and his son.
