@@joyaljoseph853 That's not what HMK said in that radio interview! He said it took only 20 mins for the "initial draft" and then it "gradually evolved" into the song that's blowin up now!
There are decades worth of hard work behind the ability to create something in minutes. Like the story of some famous painter who drew a lady in 5 minutes, and asked a high price saying you are not seeing how many years I have worked to be able to do it in just 5minutes. 😊
Who is this guy? He is so knowledgeable about the rap game and its history. I want to hear more from him in reagards to various rap album globally and Indian. Him being a former rapper also helps.
Hello dost. Prateek here. Thanks a lot for this comment. Really appreciate it.🤗 I'm a rapper and producer based out of Delhi. I dropped an album last year, working on the 2nd one. I think you'll like it.. Sunna zaroor.. Cheers! ✌🏽
Yes we can be all proud saying he is a Kerala born Indian, but his rap influence is definitely from the west where he was raised. So we all need to calm down with claiming him to be Indian. His accent and flow has influence from Memphis Texas, and artists from there.
Yeah but like the guy here said , he’s represented India in its most natural form through the well of death . This is most relatable, nostalgic thing to a lot of us and that’s what makes him Indian and close to his roots as well as being cosmopolitan and international at the same time . A true representation of globalized modern India .
@@abhiget000 Claiming him, is not claiming his success. His achievement is pioneering a global hit , in Memphis flow based in India with Indian artists. Which is a huge inspiration for others to dream and try to do the same. A lot of Indian artists do not have the large English speaking audience they deserve here , which is why their global recognition is something amazing. The fact that he did it, without guarantee for success , grinding for many years here and not in Texas. Makes it a very Indian, Bengaluru, Kerala Achievement. Memphis to Malappuram to Madiwala, no cap.
Never lived in Kerala മലപ്പുറം ആയിരുന്നേൽ ഇപ്പൊ നാട്ടുകാർ കഞ്ചാവ് ആക്കി മാറ്റി നിറുത്തും he studied in texas came back in banglore he started a band got first breakthrough..
This is not the first time that an artist from India has blown up. Check out the most popular song by an artist named Lil Blackout. He is from Ranchi. /s
You missed one point his lyrics included flow my ashes away reference which is a indian cultural thing . So not just video his lyrics also had india in it ❤
NGL you nailed it Rap has to be authentic if an indian rapper starts rapping in english which is his second language it will show and i do think the production is also top tier hanumankind is from america so it does not seem fake Another reason is that hip hop is global at this point the umair album is at par in terms of quality with the albums from top selling hip hop artists
No no no! These are double references we pour ashes too! It’s a crazy double meaning. All Of it even references to the south. It’s so dense with meaning! Same thing is true about RRR it hits at multiple levels of abstraction! Don’t you get it? It’s multilevel multi meaning delivery!! Nothing else in universe achieves this only words and art. It’s like having two journeys with one body and mind.
4:51, Hamare yaha jhoote nahin padte and its not just American Actually not true in south atleast in Telangana when people sit to drink alcohol we pour a few drops on land for our dead ancestors so maybe in kerala they do the same so don't think just north part of india represents the whole india on culture
I am very happy that one of our Indian rappers has sung such a song which has reached the international level. Love All Hanuman Kind. Love from the heart, Chhote Bhai. 😍🤗❤️💕🇮🇳🙏
Hats Off 👏 Great man 🙌❤🤘, This kind of anchor and explanation we need, nowadays where people has 0 knowledge about hip hop/Rap and they are just running CZcams channel.
Yup, that's why it's going to get more streams on Spotify than CZcams. Spotify playlisting also matters. But it wouldn't work if song was not catchy, big Dawgs is really catchy song.
@@movieedits1017 It's definitely catchy and amazing, no doubt about it. But foreigners are loving it only because of his American accent. Otherwise there are dozens of Indian singers and rappers who deserve such global recognition as him.
Here's the thing, it's not a fake accent. Sure he got embraced more because he sounds familiar but that's because he is! If you spent ages 8-20 in Texas, you're Texan idc. What I'm saying is, we love the authenticity more than anything.
@@user-qk4sshe is born in Kerala and lived in Texas. He is not a kannadiga and you guys are well known for taking credits for no reason. He clearly says in all his interviews that he is a malayali

Buddy it is very difficult to understand the Hip Hop technicalities which you to try to understand but overall he dig deeper and harder which no Indian can achieve, proud of him and badshah should leave this country by saying sab gazab sab gazab

Kudos to Quint for roping in a talented anchor. Great presentation. Btw he looks & sounds like a mix of Ankur Warikoo, Kunal Roy Kapur & Manav Kaul.
Many said he looks like Indian Freddie Mercury like Freddie wasn't Indian enough
He was indeed a Parsi Indian but some say he identified himself as a Persian
all his songs are now on repeat in my playlist , all of them are fire , my favourites are , thats a fact , genghis , skyline and ayyayyo
Yes go to sleep and Genghis are fire 🔥
Really blown by the depth of this analysis, looking forward to more from you, you should probably do a series on the hip-hop culture of India
This is growing india
This is not the first time that an artist from India has blown up.
Check out the most popular song by an artist named Lil Blackout. He is from Ranchi.
/s
😂😂😂
He is going to rule Indian rap world, he is fire...
Hnumankind is the future man🔥
I wouldn't know Hanumankind to this details, thanks bro for making this piece 🙏
You missed one point his lyrics included flow my ashes away reference which is a indian cultural thing . So not just video his lyrics also had india in it ❤
Hmm true..
He has made many cultural references in the lyrics as well!!
It’s common in Kerala that we offer “toddy” a liquor from palm tree, to our ancestors. There is a specific day for performing this.
Yeah same in telangana...that's what I was thinking when he said that
NGL you nailed it Rap has to be authentic if an indian rapper starts rapping in english which is his second language it will show and i do think the production is also top tier
hanumankind is from america so it does not seem fake
Another reason is that hip hop is global at this point the umair album is at par in terms of quality with the albums from top selling hip hop artists
This was a great breakdown.
Appreciate the effort ❤
Like he said in a podcast, 'He is more of a performer than a studio rapper'. His discography is awesome 💯
That Vaaqif Album cover By The Local Train in background 📈📈
No no no! These are double references we pour ashes too! It’s a crazy double meaning. All
Of it even references to the south. It’s so dense with meaning! Same thing is true about RRR it hits at multiple levels of abstraction! Don’t you get it? It’s multilevel multi meaning delivery!! Nothing else in universe achieves this only words and art. It’s like having two journeys with one body and mind.
Idk about the north but in the south Alchohol and funerals goes hand to hand
Totally

His song is sick, killer of old hip-hop ❤
നമ്മുടെ പയ്യൻ
F8L has the potential.
He was appreciated for Drake remixes, Franky Tape and other singles by Global audience
In parts of India we pour and keep a glass of alcohol for our ancestors on specific days. 5:00
Ohh wow. I didn't know that...
yeah for gods too
You are such a sensible guy bhai
It's Brown Boy Season babyy🔥 We only up from here
Mallu boy ❤
Great job explaining. Loved it.
He was already popular with the rap scene in Kerala, Listen to Ayayyo, that made him pretty popular here, also his rap in Avesham.
I am very happy that one of our Indian rappers has sung such a song which has reached the international level. Love All Hanuman Kind. Love from the heart, Chhote Bhai. 😍🤗❤️💕🇮🇳🙏

Loved a Hip hop song after so long...💯.. been listening to this day in day out...💯💯
I agree
You know your stuff. I said it bcoz how you elaborated him is so philosophical. Just write some of your stuff without without any fake and greed.

No Indian rapper is even close to Sooraj. All other Indian rappers are so lame. And you’re talking about foreigners reacting to it. They only react to these rappers to grow their channel. I don’t even call ppl like badshah a rapper. But Sooraj is on the level of US rappers. That’s the reality.
