The fabulous fusion track has received a positive response and adds to his impressive number of hit songs.


With an action-packed year ahead, filled with more top tracks and live performances, the British Asian talent is looking forward to entertaining music lovers with his unique sound.

Eastern Eye caught up with him for a quick chat.

Tell us about your newly released song.

Swing My Way– Sohniye is a r’n’b track that will just tap into your emotions. It’s a feel-good song that I am sure will transport you to your nostalgia zone.

What inspired you to create this new track?

I have always been a rap and r’n’b artist. I would say this track has that smooth r’n’b, with a great British Asian kick to it.

Ultimately, my inspiration has always been my love for music.

Who are you hoping connects to this song?

I think my music has always been for everyone. It has good production and just a whole load of vibes, which will appeal to a wide audience.

How does this compare to the other songs you have recorded so far?

I have made a lot of music that crosses genres and never fits into any boxes. So, compared to my other songs, this track is just another musical expression that is unique in its own way.

What can we expect from you for the rest of the year?

I have some bangers coming to everyone this year, with an album on the way too. I am looking forward to sharing the new music with everyone soon.

Which of your unreleased singles are you most excited about?

I am always pushing those barriers in music. There is something coming out later this year, which might be something that you don’t expect from me.

After all these years, what does music mean to you today?

Music isn’t just a passion for me; it’s my work too and work is always number one.

Is it fair to say that you are still a rule-breaker when it comes to music?

It’s something that I just do. I don’t see any barriers, just opportunities.

 Today, what is your greatest unfulfilled musical ambition?

A collaboration with Drake – now that would be sick.

What inspires you?

The people around me will always be an inspiration.

 What music is currently dominating your own personal playlist?

Currently, it’s Giggs.

Why should we all pick up your new single?

You deserve some happiness in your playlist.

Ibrahim Ali Khan’s fiery DM to Pakistani critic over ‘Nadaaniyan’ sparks social media uproar

Ibrahim Ali Khan has found himself at the centre of an online storm following his message to Pakistani film critic Tamur Iqbal. The critic had shared his blunt review of Ibrahim’s debut film Nadaaniyan, mocking not only the film but also taking a personal swipe at Ibrahim’s appearance. What followed was an angry message from the young actor that has since gone viral.

Tamur Iqbal had posted a story on Instagram, criticising Nadaaniyan for its performances and taking a dig at Ibrahim’s “huge nose.” While harsh reviews are common in the world of cinema, Ibrahim’s alleged reaction caught many by surprise. In a screenshot Tamur later shared publicly, Ibrahim appears to lash out, calling the critic “an ugly piece of trash” and threatening to “leave you uglier” if they crossed paths in person.

Millie Bobby Brown and the rise of cinema’s first ‘stream queen’ with 'The Electric State'

At just 21 years old, Millie Bobby Brown has already secured her place as a prominent figure in the entertainment industry. The star of Stranger Things, who first captivated audiences with her portrayal of Eleven, now finds herself at the forefront of Netflix’s most high-profile projects. However, her latest role in The Electric State, a mindbogglingly expensive Netflix sci-fi film, has sparked mixed reactions and raised questions about her trajectory as a ‘Stream Queen’ – a title that comes with both acclaim and criticism.

The Electric State, in which Brown stars alongside Chris Pratt, has not been warmly received by critics. Described by The Independent's Clarisse Loughrey as “punishingly obvious and completely incoherent,” the film’s one-star reviews have been echoed by many others. The movie, which centres around two hollow characters moving aimlessly through a barren plot, seems to be yet another forgettable venture in Brown’s recent streak of Netflix productions.
