Referencing Charlie Parker's reclusive practice of "shedding", Yardbird sees Cappo retreat deep into his art as part of CANON's Chapter 2 "Escapism". This video contains lyrics and footnotes which offer viewers previously unseen insights into Cappo's literary technique.

CANON marks the long-awaited return of critically acclaimed underground rap artist, Cappo. The seventeen-track opus is Cappo’s first full-length recording since completing his PhD study into literary techniques utilised by rap artists to convey personal trauma.

Announcing CANON as his “most complete work to date”, Cappo describes the new album as representing a monumental personal journey, covering topics such as mental health, addiction, pain and trauma, music as escapism, and the concept of absolution, ultimately leading to forgiveness and redemption.
