I absolutely love songs that express the human experience. To me there are fewer things more beautiful in hip hop or music in general. Someone who takes their craft, explores their past in their present, and shares that exploration with others. And Heems hits home, and hits home hard with sharing his family’s story as the video in his words “is an exploration of the inherited trauma stemming from the 1947 Partition of India and Pakistan”. You can see the contemplation and perhaps the pain and then the corresponding hope, making this a captivating moment in 2024.

New album Veena coming in a little over a month.
