Desi HipHop by Manj Musik, Roach Killer, Raxstar, Humble The Poet, Big Dhillon, Badshah, Sarb Smooth, Raftaar

The Spoken Word album has several strong tracks, but Desi HipHop is the one most listeners come back to first. What makes Desi HipHop musically distinctive is the composition by Manj Musik, which balances simplicity with depth.

Manj Musik, Roach Killer, Raxstar, Humble The Poet, Big Dhillon, Badshah, Sarb Smooth, Raftaar inhabits this song completely, making every phrase feel like it was written specifically for this voice. a talented ensemble cast gave the film its soul, and Desi HipHop is the song that most directly channels that feeling into music.

Released in 2014, it arrived at a time when Indian Pop music needed exactly this kind of sincerity. The mood of the track shifts subtly as it progresses, giving even a single listen a sense of journey.

At 5:48, the track does not overstay its welcome — it says what it needs to say and leaves the listener wanting more. It is, simply, one of the better songs to come from Indian Pop in recent memory — and the numbers agree.
