If you don’t already know who is Hasan Raheem and why is he an on-going sensation ever since he laid down his first official song – it’s okay. The pandemic hasn’t been kind to everyone. But now that we are out and back in the world, let’s talk about the positive things these days rather than petrol and electricity bill hikes.
Born in Gilgit-Baltistan region of Pakistan, Hasan had always been a bit of a rebel despite being the eldest in 3 siblings and having an army dad. He performed on a stage for the first time when he was in 5th grade influenced by the British-Indian RDB group and maybe that’s when he realized music is something he likes.
Hasan Raheem’s Music Genres
Hasan Raheem is known for his laid-back RnB music but has also dabbled into hip hop, soul and indie pop music styles. At just 24 years, this Leo, has garnered a lot of praise and recognition. Hasan went to Karachi to study medicine and while he was still studying he started writing and humming songs. He released his first track when he was still a student. So if your parents ever said complete your studies and then pursue your interests – that works too! Hasan is an MBBS as well as a singer, songwriter and rapper.
Hasan has incorporated Shina, a language spoken in Gilgit-Baltistan, with Urdu and English so beautifully in his songs most of the time that most people don’t even notice it. He also won the Breakthrough Artist of the Year in 2020 at the 1st Pakistan international screen awards held in Dubai. However, PISA awards have been criticized by many actors who had some issues regarding the management of the event.
