Abstract

“In My Own Words” is a seven-track Cantonese hip-hop album that explores themes of migration, self-growth, nostalgia, and resilience. Written, produced, and performed independently, the album reflects the artist’s journey from Hong Kong to Melbourne, capturing emotional experiences through boom bap and jazz-influenced hip-hop production. Blending personal storytelling with expressive sound design, the project presents a deeply introspective narrative and showcases a commitment to authentic creative expression.
