The unprecedented Ngaiire (born in Papua New Guinea, bred in Australia) presents her first official offering to the world, "Dirty Hercules," and it's a story of fairness meeting corruption. As her song press release states, "The song speaks of the vast aberrations of the darkness, the sex, the lies, the money, the drugs that detract from the reality of our own core conditions. It sheds light on the towering ugliness of our ailing covetous nature, the misinterpretations of strength and the journey of acceptance that no two people can have the same story."
With a strong, syrupy melt of harmonies supplemented by back-up singer Nai Palm (of Melbourne's Hiatus Kaiyote), and co-produced by herself, Tim Curnick, and Japanese pianist Aaron Choulai, the song showcases Ngaiire's unique style and soulful wail; that which will have its time on Lamentations, her debut album.
