The use of our native tongue in the Malaysian hip-hop scene has bloomed in the last decade. Emerging hip-hop artist lucidrari joins us to shed light on his musical journey and take us through his sophomore record, CHRONOSPHERE, which debuted at number one on Spotify’s Top 20 Malaysian Albums chart. Known for his unique blend of hip-hop sung in Malay slang, the talented wordsmith also takes us back to the inspiration behind his hit single “LAMPU BIRU”, working as a collective with fellow rappers Dannqrack and Eemrun.
