Smooth and Gangsta - MC Kash out of Kashmir

Let's face it there are very few smooth Desi rappers out there or at least had enough hits to get into the cyber-sphere. Well, rest assured, we found one, albeit a bit explicit with his lyrics but substantial with a message. Nothing about money, cars and women in this track by MC Kash "Beneath the Sky" is worthy of your inner Desi gangsta.



From MD Kash's Bio (via website):

Born in 1990, Kash belongs to a generation of Kashmiris that grew up under the shadow of guns, whose childhood memories are that of a war, raged in the streets. It was a battlefield and a playground, and it also handed out education to those who were able and willing to learn. The streets said it all. Right from his first track as a 17 year-old to his single “I Protest” and to his self-produced debut album “Rebel RepubliK”, MC Kash’s underlying principle has been to stay true to his streets and to speak his mind.

Delivered with sincerity and conviction, MC Kash's music is from the heart and soul of his experiences and radiates from his love and dreams for his people in Kashmir. A relentless bard seeking to fulfill his responsibility as a Kashmiri to reach out to more and more people, Kash strives to tell the untold tale of his land and explore the shape of an ideal and humane society. His words pay homage to the dignity and unsung heroism of everyday people - mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters. His poetry has its roots in a universal consciousness and his songs speak of human themes of hope, courage, survival, resilience and persistence and the destined triumph of Truth over falsehood. Through his rap songs, MC Kash seeks to ask questions, to insist on justice, to resist and condemn hate, greed and ignorance, and to awaken and propel reform and positive action in this world. Learning and improving all the while.

Take some time out of your busy lives and check out MC Kash. We hope that there is some international recognition for lyrics and that there is more on the horizon for this man.
