Amidst the scathing beef between Seedhe Maut & Kashmir’s Straight Outta Srinagar, the Delhi-bred group’s Calm and Frappe Ash have joined forces in an evocative visual cut “Raita” from the latter’s “Junkie” LP.
The hard-hitting visuals, directed by Manil Kandwal, capture Calm & Ash in Himalayan meadows and arrive via coveted record label Mass Appeal India.
Produced by Indian superproducer Sez On The Beat, “Raita” is the 11th track on Ash’s debut album. Besides Calm, the LP features massive guest verses by a slew of underground Indian rappers including Encore ABJ, Dhanji, Nanku, ReVo Lekhak, OG Lucifer, Faizan and Ash’s Full Power affiliate yungsta.
