6th
April, Mumbai: 20-year-old young and dynamic rapper Yashraj Mehra released his first-ever EP, Azaad Hu Mein consisting of three soulful songs Azaad Hu Mein, Sote Raho, and Kaise
Badlenge?The theme of the EP revoles around resolving the
inner conflict first, in order to fight the world in any given situation.
“‘Azaad
Hu Mein’ is a very personal project as I shed light on a number of instances
and situations I’ve faced mentally and emotionally in my own life. I have
portrayed them with some of the most unfamiliar yet familiar sounds. I have
kept the lyrics simple that
justify my message”,said Yashraj.
Inspired
by Donald Glover aka Childish Gambino’s creative intellectuality, Yashraj
inspires to do more and not restrict himself to one specific creative field. According to him, the same narratives get
monotonous and he believes it’s his duty to not let that happen and not stick
to a cookie-cutter formula.
Talking about his EP, he added“The
word “Azaad” impactful enough to portray an entire country’s freedom struggle
but also articulate enough to describe what goes on in the mind of a
middle-class boy who wants his art to be his voice”
His
verses have garnered support from artists like superstar DJ Marshmello, DIVINE,
Lost Stories, Zaeden, Ritviz and more.
Yashraj
has even collaborated with Zaeden and Lost Stories for a remix of “tere bina”
and performed along with them at Vh1 Supersonic (India's most premium music
festival) and IIT Mood Indigo (#1 College fest in India).
