(NYC, NY) “Back to Bombay” is the second track in a trio of spring/summer releases for Indian Hip-pop artist Akash. In this track, Akash teams up with popular Indian producer and performer, Trapperx to create a multi-lingual track that transcends cultures.
“Back to Bombay” is a classic love story about a boy pining over a girl who he cannot stop thinking about but is unable to express his feelings towards her. The Hindi chorus details his infatuation while Akash’s verse explains how the protagonist is grappling with his feelings rapping, Aye, look you in your eyes, and I don’t know what to say/I don’t know what to say/So I let the song talk for me/Talk for me, ‘cuz I don’t know what to say.”
