Renowned rapper Black Zang has set the music scene ablaze once again with the release of his latest music video, "Jaygamoto", now available on his official YouTube channel.
In the world of Bangla rap, few names carry as much weight and influence as Black Zang. His journey, intricately entwined with the rise of Bangla rap culture, is a testament to artistic evolution, cultural amalgamation, and the power of storytelling through music. In the vibrant and ever-evolving realm of hip-hop music, Black Zang stands out as a trailblazer, leaving an indelible mark on the industry.
The spirit of solidarity through music has been a beacon of hope and activism throughout history. Just as the "To Gaza, from Dhaka – Artists Against Genocide" concert unites Bangladeshi musicians to aid Gaza, it bears a striking resemblance to another historic musical event: the "Concert for Bangladesh."
“I don’t know how else we can help a nation that is repeatedly being wronged other than through our art,” said Ahmed Hasan Sunny, a rising star in the music industry. “We’ve remained an audience, helpless after seeing bombs dropped on civilians, hospitals and innocent children in Gaza. We decided to do something about it.” The young artiste took the challenge to organise a concert in support of Gaza’s hand-in-hand with artist Morshed Mishu, who was already planning to make graffiti to speak up for the oppressed people of Gaza.
Bangladeshi artistes and humanitarian activists have come together under the platform Artists Against Genocide to protest the ongoing genocide in Gaza. This fundraising concert titled “To Gaza From Dhaka” will be held at the Hatirjheel Amphitheater on November 24.
The song has been penned by Sheikh M Reaz, drummer of Mechanix. “Escape” also contains a rap verse by Black Zang. Shishir Ahmed directed and supervised the composition of the song.
The music video of Ferrari Folk will be premiered at a cafe in Uttara on February 24. There will also be performances by renowned musicians.
An active member of the desi hip-hop scene, Ifteakhar Hossain aka Punkstah has been creating roars and spitting bars since 2010. Having worked beside notable artists like Black Zang and Fuad, Punkstah recently showcased his musical prowess in performing in ‘Fuad live in Dhaka’ .An editor and animator by profession, Punkstah sits down with us virtually to talk about holding up the Bangladeshi flag in the global hip-hop scene, Extraction and the mainstream Bangla music.
The presence of hip hop culture in the Bangladeshi music industry was not as prevalent even a decade ago. However, the scene has changed drastically over the years. Asiful Islam Sohan, who goes by the alias Black Zang (BZ), is one of the prominent artistes in the game. One day while playing around with Bangla words, he realised that he could write rhymes in his mother tongue. Ever since then, he has been honing his craft.
