We chatted with him about his latest single, his association with Saavn and what inspires his sound and music. Excerpts from interview:

What was the idea behind your new track, ‘Hit Me Up’?

Hit Me Up is a very personal song. The idea was to make a song that highlighted the side effects of success. I feel a lot of artists are focussed on making commercial songs but I wanted to share something personal, my experience of how I was feeling after the success of my previous songs.

When and why did you decide to pursue a career in music?

I have been learning music since I was a child and have been delving into different genres of music for most of my life. Personally, I think it was the only thing I was good at.
