Enjoy Enjaami- New Talk of the Town

Published

on

‘Rowdy Baby’ fame singer Dhee and rapper Arivu have brought out an independent track titled ‘Enjoy Enjaami’ on AR Rahman’s platform for indie musicians Maajja

A call to our ancestors, a celebration of our roots — or in other words, a recall to the things we have forgotten — is what singer Dhee and rapper Arivu’s track ‘Enjoy Enjaami’ is about. The recently-released track is produced by Maajja, the platform started by composer AR Rahman to support indie musicians, and composer Santhosh Narayanan.

Singer, songwriter and rapper Arivu called the single his most favorite song ever and wrote that it is a dedication to Valliamma, who is one of the descendants of the many laborers who came back to Tamil Nadu from Sri Lanka to work on tea plantations, around 200 years ago. They came back to Tamil Nadu, but they were left with no land to belong to. Arivu, Valliyamma’s grandson inherits this feeling of rootlessness; with a disjointed past, he feels this sense of not belonging.

Naan anju maram valarthen…

Azhagana thottam vachchen…

Thottam sezhithaalum

en thonda nanaiyalaye

En kadale karaye…

Vaname saname…

Nelame kolame…

Edame thadame…

Every beat strikes and each line hits you right on your feels. Tap to the beats, it’s here to stay!

Published

on

Have you ever envisioned a rapper from Kerala taking off similar pranks for a viral music video on the internet? That’s exactly what HanuMankind’s “Big Dawgs” has accomplished, racking up over 17 million views on YouTube and holding the 43rd position in the worldwide top music video chart right now. 

“Pushing culture baby, got that product you can’t measure,” is the official slogan of the “Big Dawgs.” Rapper HanuMankind, who was born in Kerala, wrote, sang, and performed the song that launched desi hip-hop on a worldwide scale. This newest Instagram success is causing social media influencers, music reviewers, and fans worldwide to go crazy.

The newest mega song, “Big Dawg” featuring Kalmi, is causing quite a stir among hip-hop fans worldwide. Texas is where Sooraj Cherukat, better known by his stage as HanuMankind, spent his formative years. He created the ideal combination of desi and global components in the ‘Big Dawg’ music video by incorporating sounds with a Texas flavour.

‘Big Dawg’ is a raw video with a South American flavour, shot in Ponnani, Kerala, a coastal district. It has a desi swagger and an explosive punk vibe that is hard-hitting due to its South Indian location. It is Instagram-worthy thanks to its intense drumbeats, gritty graphics, heart-pounding moments, and deft editing.

With songs like “Rush Hour,” “Genghis,” and “Go To Sleep,” HanuMankind is becoming one of the most prominent names in popular hip-hop. ‘Big Dawgs’ has now catapulted him to an unparalleled level as an industry innovator.

 

Bijoy Shetty is the director of “Big Dawgs,” and Kalmi of Brown Crew Productions is supporting the film. The main rider, Sulthan Sheikh, Moor Saleem, Muhammad Shadab Ansari, and Kashish Sheikh all perform the tricks.
