Watch: Jodhpur, Rajasthan’s magnificent blue city has got not one but two hip-hop tributes
The popular travel destination gets the hip-hop treatment.
Four rappers from Rajasthan’s Jodhpur are offering a different perspective to their hometown, which is usually known as a popular (and exotic) tourist destination. Rappers Sumsa Supari and Jagirdar RV who had previously written the fiery Jodhpur Anthem have collaborated with local hip-hop duo J19 Squad, comprising Young H and PK Nimbark, for the all-new Mharo Jodhpur.
The song celebrates the blue city and even touches upon some of its eating delights. Shot in alleyways and on a hilltop, the music video also offers a superb tour of the sights and sounds of the city. While rap movements have taken off in many parts of the country, Rajasthan remains under-represented. Perhaps these two videos might showcase a different side of Rajasthani music.
