Hope you enjoy!”

Kashmiri rapper and producer, Ahmer brings us a brand new track titled ‘Elaan.’ Ahmer teamed up with Delhi born and raised producer Sez on the Beat and Punjabi singer Prabh Deep for the song.
“This song is about everything I have seen around me while growing up,” explained Ahmer about the song. “The song calls out people who are hypocritical because they do terrible things behind the curtain, but judge others for doing the same just to be accepted by society. It is about how people in power use religion to manipulate the masses. Prabh Deep’s verse is about how he is against people who are dividing the country on the basis of religion, caste and other socio-political factors.”
