Naezy talks about the importance of rap songs giving out a message 

In an exclusive interview with Republic World, Azaad Hu Main rapper Naezy spoke at length about several things from how he spent time during the lockdown to his inspiration behind writing songs. When asked about whether it is important for rap music to give out a message, Naezy stated, "It is important for a rap song to have some message. Because we listeners listen to music, the message goes into their ears and affects them. If we talk good, the effect is good. And if we talk bad, the effect is bad. Hence, I feel it is necessary to have rap songs with underlying messages. And the messages should be good ones."

My message is to remain grounded and united by love and together lead the country. Don’t fight amongst each other. Respect women. We’re one."
