When we speak about raw talent within Pakistan, there is an endless list of youngsters that have now levelled up and started producing content that certainly makes us feel proud. These individuals have made the most of their time when the world was going through a pandemic, to create music that is hip, catchy, unique, and of course loved by mass audiences.
It is wonderful to see such eclectic ideas come to life with such simple yet creative concepts and a natural flow of music plus immaculate sound production design.
Here are a few upcoming artists that have made waves within the Pakistani industry. They are surely making a place for their music’s niche amongst the heart of Pakistani people and have risen to fame!
Hasan Raheem
Now those of you who tell me they are not familiar with the infamous ‘Aisay Kaisay’ singer are not welcome to the club. However, I know that the numbers wouldn’t be low as this young boy known as Hasan Raheem has acquired a loyal fanbase due to his brilliant productions. This soon to be doctor from Gilgit (Yes, you read this right) has quite a subtle, chill, and melodious vibe to his music and is the opposite of loud!

Natasha Noorani
This diverse indie singer, songwriter and voice over artist has certainly set the bar for new wave music in Pakistan as someone who is pursuing contemporary pop music. Her videos are a striking blend of Billie Eilish and Lady Gaga’s aesthetics with a voice to die for. Her song Ikisvi Saddi hits right in the feels!

Be it Mann Main Tu, Pyaar Ata Jaata hai or Dou Pal featuring Maanu, there isn’t one song of Taha G’s that his fans don’t sing along to!
