Metamorphosis is the debut studio album by New Zealand hip hop artist Dilz, marking a defining moment in his artistic evolution. The project represents a transformation — a shedding of skin and emergence into a more refined, introspective, and lyrically driven version of himself.

Featuring an impressive lineup of both local and international talent, Metamorphosis includes collaborations with renowned Kiwi artists Scribe and J. Williams, as well as international hip hop heavyweights Bmike and SwizZz. From vulnerable storytelling to razor-sharp bars, the album blends melodic hooks with gritty verses, showcasing Dilz’s versatility across a range of styles and emotions.

​

At its core, Metamorphosis is a deeply personal and reflective body of work — a coming-of-age journey told through rhyme. The production spans emotional piano-driven beats, uplifting anthems, and raw underground energy, all tied together by Dilz’s signature lyrical craftsmanship.

This debut album laid the foundation for what would become a legacy of growth, resilience, and relentless authenticity in the New Zealand hip hop landscape. Metamorphosis isn't just an album — it’s the beginning of a movement.
