More to kill
Destroy rebuild , destroy rebuild
Our will
Cut the drill
Let us chill , let us chill .
Came back a few days ago from a fantastic Coke studio recording session 2 . Big honor for me to be called back on popular demand . I hope my performance cuts through as per the expectations . I indeed did experience a divine happening during the rendition of one of the songs. Will talk about it some other time .
I would not forgive myself for being up till 5 am the night before my performance. Well it happened so ….
I came back to the hotel around 2 am after a whole day of press conference followed by my rehearsals . Everybody was staying at the same place so Ali Noor invited to come over to his room where some friends and colleagues had gathered just to chill and jam . I thought I’ll just go in for 15 minutes , unwind and then head to my room to sleep for a fresh early morn’. There was Josh , Atif , Ali Noor and Hamza , Rakae , Manpreet ( percussion player with Josh ), Shafqat Bhaee and a few others . We ended up singing and jamming till 5 in the morning ! Kuch zayaada hee fresh tha next day .
Next day was my recording which went pretty ok I guess . Let’s see . I’ve done new songs this time . Different from what i’ve done so far… soon to be shared with you as it airs on tv. I had to write one of the songs just a night before the show , which was quite a challenge but it went alright I believe . Pretty intense .
A few of us went crabbing in the evening . Relaxing .
Went on to Islamabad for a show the day after . What a fantastic concert . An elderly woman came to me back stage and said “ Son I had a great time and wanted to get up and start dancing . Such things have stopped happening in our country so we had a great time after a long time “
I hope that the government’s administrational issues are resolved at their earliest , so that unanimous policies are devised and regulated regarding all issues , things settle in and we are at peace to give out peace .
A for Afghanistan
B for Bomb
C for Carlito’s way
