Fakhr-e-Alam read my piece about Bhangra Rap, and graciously agreed to talk a little bit more about it. In this conversation Fakhr and I discuss rap, the 90s music scene in Pakistan, important figures in the industry, how he set up his career, and his latest music.
This conversation also includes stories about Rohail Hyatt, Shoaib Mansoor, Ghazanfar Ali, ‘Chacha’ Idrees, Shezan Saleem, among others.
