North Stradbroke Island local Sachém is an artist whose intellect and creativity reaches new levels. With his name being a title given to the Native American chief from the Mohegan tribe in the North East of the USA, it was prophetic that frontline First Nation/African American leader Sachém would become a talented writer and orator. The rapper, singer, and spoken-word poet has combined his greatest works into his debut EP Part of the Picture.

Most of the collection was recorded with Mules Mecca at District Studios, with "Take It Off" and his latest single "Chasin" recorded with Papertoy in Gadigal and "Gemini" with K Rasta in Meanjin. The EP's guest artist appearances include RMC, Grand Master Absent and Sol Chld. "This is a collection of music gathered from significant parts of my life over the last 18 months," Sachém explained of the art piece.

As expected, the powerful songwriter manages to give a perfect snapshot of his intersectional experience of life in the EP. "I would like the listener to gain a better understanding of the complexities of a young Indigenous person living in this colonised world. The many emotions, thoughts and struggles that come up within our lives as a result of our history and current experience, challenge the morals and values of our cultural lens. So we are forced to sit in this weird space that lies between the two worlds. This is a space that not many people outside this experience would understand. And despite this we still manage to survive, create and express. This EP is only Part of the Picture that makes up the Blak experience in Australia."

Having played at Yonder Festival in 2020 and Mountain Goat Valley Crawl 2021, fans who see Sachém live can expect to be enamoured by a "young indigenous man, conflicted and exhausted, amidst a turbulent battle of ego, monetary gain and self-discovery" which manifests in a theatrical and emotive performance. The artist also won the 2017 Oodgeroo Noonuccal Poetry Prize through Queensland Poetry Festival and 2020 Brisbane City Council Best Original Song Award. Sachém laces rhymes with personal stories, while touching on poignant social & cultural issues that have and continue to impact his life.
