MEANING

‘MOWGLI’ the main track is the heart of this album — a raw, unapologetic exploration of Western oppression on Indian culture and the deep impact it’s had on me growing up. The track begins as a reflection on the racism I faced, but as it builds, it transforms into a diss against everyone who’s ever looked down on me, my culture, or my identity. I channelled the outcast experience — something I lived most of my life — and flipped it, showing that being an outcast means being stronger, superior, and defiant.

The music video, created using AI, visually represents this journey. I appear in red, wearing a demon mask — a symbol of society’s ultimate outcast, rejected from heaven, banished to hell. Throughout the video, this figure battles those trying to destroy him. At one point, he even tries to help his own, only to be turned on — a metaphor for betrayal and false loyalty I’ve faced. In the end, Mowgli survives, embracing his identity as an outcast and finding peace in that acceptance.

Inspired by The Jungle Book, Mowgli stands between worlds, belonging to none, but mastering his own.
