New Delhi [India], November 18 (ANI/PRNewswire): Today, New Delhi hip hop artists Sez on the Beat and Ab 17 have released a new record titled ‘TEZ FILAM’ via THE MVMNT/Mass Appeal India. It gives listeners insight into a dark and underrepresented part of south-west Delhi where snatchers and criminals roam freely. ‘TEZ FILAM’ is a social commentary from Ab 17’s point of view and an expression of the young rapper’s desire to make it out safely. The lyrics reflect the duality of loving his neighborhood as his roots, while being wary of the violence and depravity he regularly witnesses there. Stream the album here. Ab 17 and Sez on the Beat release a new 8-track record called ‘TEZ FILAM’ via THE MVMNT/Mass Appeal India.
Ab 17 burst into the scene after he was discovered on the 2021 online edition of Breezer Vivid Shuffle by New Delhi duo Seedhe Maut, who appeared as judges in the competition. Ab 17 earned a feature on Sez on the Beat and Seedhe Maut’s widely acclaimed 2022 album ‘Nayaab’ shortly after.
