Hasan Raheem drops second track ‘EXES’ from ‘DIL KAY PARDAY’

The mystery behind ‘D’, ‘K’ and ‘P’ is out! Last week Hasan Raheem dropped two more cryptic reels on Instagram, revealing the full form of the acronyms. “DIL KAY PARDAY is now loading,” he announced the name of the album in the caption. 

The singer dropped the second track from the album, “EXES” featuring a collaboration with the Young Stunners on YouTube last night. The first track was “MEMORIES” which Hasan dropped back in April. The new song has been produced by Abdullah Kasambi and presented by Hasan Raheem Studios and FT.WA STUDIO. 

The song starts with an electronic beat at the backdrop of Hasan’s low pitched vocals. It then shifts to Yunus rapping to the same beat with his trademark, “Shehre dil main tikta nahi hun,” lyrics. Anjum then takes the stage with his fast paced rapping style. Hasan appears on and off and finally ends the song with a “Main to likha karta tha safar kay liye. Ye ghar mera ye sab mera nahi, kyun likhun is deewaro dar kay liye.”

The song comes with a futuristic music video. Starring the vocalists themselves alongside Nargis Suleymanova, the video has been produced by Abdullah Kasumbi and Taimur Aamir. The cinematography has been done by Abid Rizvi and shot at Studio Shamsi. 

It showcases a sci-fi Karachi where Hasan is going into an alternative reality to escape. He re-emerges as Yunus and Anjum in two different universes. Yunus drops his bars in a rainy mansion room whereas Anjum literally sets the same room on fire as he delivers his lines. By the end, Hasan suffers a seizure as he remembers some of the most memorable moments with his ex, played by Nargis.
