In a recent musical revelation, Aditya Guglani, known by his stage name Qoini, emerges as a self-taught Hip-Hop artist, making waves since 2017. His latest release, “Sone Ki Khaan,” delves into contemporary issues, drawing inspiration from his own experiences. This musical compilation offers a glimpse into the enticing, confusing, and vulnerable lives of Delhi’s residents.
Qoini’s lyrics paint a vivid picture of individuals in the city, tirelessly digging to uncover their own versions of gold – be it wealth, fame, opportunities, or peace. The songs narrate the stories of those yearning for more than the mundane routine of a 9 to 5 job, paying tribute to the ambitious and industrious souls seeking the next breakthrough in their lives. Having experienced the frustration of a conventional job, Qoini embarked on a musical journey to voice the unspoken frustrations shared by many.
As a self-proclaimed misfit, Qoini aims to be the voice of those ensnared in the vortex of the 9-5 grind. His music spans various genres, including Classic Boom Bap, Hip Hop, and Trap Music.
Sharing his thoughts on the state of Punjabi music, particularly in the rap genre, Qoini expresses, “I believe it’s in a Renaissance period. The ongoing experimentation with music and themes is truly gratifying to witness as an artist. Hip Hop reality shows play a pivotal role in this movement, offering a taste of this epic music to the masses. Additionally, they contribute by providing a substantial audience and exposure to long-standing artists who have been in the game for a significant duration.”
