High-energy Indipop rules on the rapper’s solo debut

On his long-awaited solo debut, Indian hip-hopper Raftaar collaborates with multiple artists, and explores contemporary beats and Punjabi styles. "Baby Marvake Maanegi" is a loose-limbed dancehall cut, "Sare Karo Dab" leads with an EDM flourish and a filtered hook from Sonu Kakkar and "Gaddi" boasts a desi hip-hop vibe. "Gall Goriye" harnesses high-energy Punjabi vocals by Maninder Buttar—with Raftaar flowing in too—and "Jean Teri” has a catchy electronic hook and riffs. Finally, a moment is saved for late-night melancholy with “Lonely”, crooned soulfully by Raftaar.
