MUMBAI: Prepare for a sonic journey that defies expectations and dives deep into the complexities of truth and perception! Kerala’s genre-bending artist ARJN, distinct vocalist KDS, and razor-sharp producer RONN have officially dropped their highly anticipated collaboration, “Sheriya,” and it’s set to spark conversations across the music landscape. This powerful track is a raw, layered, and deeply personal reflection on navigating messy realities, shifting values, and societal contradictions, promising to resonate with listeners who crave music with depth and a bold voice.
“Sheriya” is far more than just a song; it’s a lyrical and sonic commentary. The track’s lyrics are gritty and deeply rooted in personal and cultural reflection, challenging the idea of what’s considered “right” (sheriya) from the perspective of those who’ve navigated life’s complexities. Lines like “Sheriya nee kettathu” (what you heard is right) and “Kombane thalachathu” (you bowed the horned one) create a powerful tug-of-war between perception and truth, offering a strong commentary on survival, struggle, and how misunderstood decisions often pave the way for deeper victories.
