Mumbai Rapper Naezy Releases New Single, Announces 4-City Tour
7 September 2016
Mumbai based rapper Naezy has just released a new single and accompanying video for ‘Asal Hustle’, as well as announcing details for a 4-city tour starting on 10 September in Bangalore before subsequent shows in Delhi, Kolkata and Siliguri (gig details below). ‘Asal Hustle’ has been produced by Sez.
Naved Shaikh’s reps at Only Much Louder had this to say about the new track:
“The newest single traverses Naved Shaikh’s journey of growing up in a ghetto in Mumbai. Originally written as an autobiographical song for the short documentary Bombay 70, Shaikh talks about the challenges of creating his own path in a vulnerable environment. Ghettos have their own rules. When you are young it is easy to sway onto the wrong path, hustling for money by doing illegal stuff is common. But the real hustle is fighting through these odds, when you work hard and earn without breaking laws. Through his music and lyrics, Shaikh continues in his endeavour to inspire his listeners with his story.”
