ARIA Award-winning artist Budjerah has today revealed his new single and music video, What Should I Do?, alongside announcing his highly anticipated second EP, Conversations, which will release on April 8.

To celebrate the release, the future star has announced a world tour, beginning April in Australia, before heading to Ireland, England, Germany, The Netherlands and France, before he travels to North America for shows in San Diego, Los Angeles and New York in May and June.

On What Should I Do? Budjerah unites with producer Konstantin Kersting to create an upbeat, dance-worthy electro-R&B. 

“The lyrics for What Should I Do? came really easily,” Budjerah says of the meaning behind the track.

“The inspiration came a few weeks earlier - I noticed that my friends weren’t really texting me or calling me; they had sort of pushed me to the side.

"I was sad because I didn't have any friends, and didn't know what to do. But now it's over: I got some new friends.”

On the music video, director Mick Soiza reflected on the universal messaging of the track, stating, "I feel this song captures a lot of the social anxiety and disconnection so many people feel but are too afraid or embarrassed to voice.

"His ability to articulate how he was feeling in a genuinely exposed way and to back himself by not wanting to cave to peer pressure as a young man is well beyond his years."

Conversations sees Budjerah reunite with longtime producers Matt Corby and Chris Colllins, as well as new collaborators MAY-A and Konstantin Kersting across its six reflective tracks.
