naqaab47 is a Delhi based hip-hop artist who has 3 alter egos - azaad vijay, haraami swami & pahgull d33waana. He revels in finding the common ground between seemingly paradoxical ideas. His lyrics are as frivolous as they are meaningful, and as timeless as they are current. What started off as a mild pastime when he was a college student in Los Angeles, has now evolved into an outlet for his most personal inner musings. His music is a heady concoction of intricate rhyme schemes, philosophical reflections and quirky wordplay. Major influences include MF Doom, Lupe Fiasco, Earl Sweatshirt, Mach-Hommy & Ka.
