Birthh: “I have decided to stop hiding”
We met Birthh during the busy week in Sanremoin the Superluna spaces, to let us tell us about his human and artistic moment, waiting to listen his new album, the first entirely in Italian, “Senza breath” out on April 24th. It is the story of a life divided between Italy and New York, the search for a new identity in a world dominated by conflicts and tensions. At the bottom you will find the video interview published on Rockol’s social networks. Between the melody of Italian songwriting, alternative-pop and international urban influences that are a mirror of the unstoppable ferment of Brooklyn, the album is co-produced entirely by the artist together with Chef P (formerly producer for Marracash, Gue, Fabri Fibra, Salmo).
After three albums written in English with which she has earned great appreciation from industry critics, Birthh chooses to sing in Italian for the first time, thus inaugurating a new chapter. To do so, she mentally projected herself into the Tuscan hills where she grew up, without however abandoning the vital chaos of New York, the city in which she took refuge and which continues to inspire her: After getting stuck in the Big Apple in March 2020, she decided to move to Brooklyn to start a new life, leaving behind a country where she had never felt fully herself. Since then, she has never returned. It is precisely in New York that the new artistic phase in Italian took shape, between contrasting feelings and those emotional tensions of those who leave home to reach the shiny New York metropolis, an arena where everything is possible, capable of leaving you, for better or for worse, breathless.
