On the Mic

Rizzy Rozeo return to On the Mic Studio exactly one year after his first appearance and this time he comes with big news. Rozeo is finally releasing his long awaited debut album which will be called 'Psycho Beats Vol.1' and it's first track will be released on the 7th of May 2022 called 'OUIJA'.

He breaks down for us how the album came to be, what the inspiration for the album artwork was (created by Fatima Naqvi), what it was like to work with the likes of Aima Baig & create tracks for Pepsi! Rozeo spills the beans on everything Rizzy and shines a light on what his family has meant to him throughout the journey.

We do all this and burp a record number of times in this episode that can only defined in Rizzy's words as 'Bipolar'. You don't want to miss out on this one.

You'd think Hira Asim was some truthsayer with the amount of facts she dropped on the mic but she is even more than that. A professional dancer, artist, actor, singer and so much more. Hira Asim gives us some of the most entertaining and eye opening stories from the world of #dance in #Pakistan that we'd be surprised if you weren't smiling & nodding in agreement whilst listening to her!  We highly recommend you listen to this one, the hour just glides by and you'll be wishing it was even longer.  This is Hira Asim On the Mic 🔥

Shahrukh Sohail is a sports management professional who has previously worked with football organisations such as Football Pakistan Dot Com (FPDC) and Leisure Leagues. In this episode, he tells us his master plan to revolutionise and reimagine the Pakistan Premier League (PPL).

Shahrukh goes into great detail regarding all aspects of his version of PPL, with department teams phased out, club teams introduced, and proper mechanisms regarding broadcasting, revenues, transfers, and fan engagement.

Is this the kind of league you want to see as a Pakistani football fan? What would you change from Shahrukh's plan? Let us know below!

Is it too early too say it? That Charles Lecrec is gonna be the "CHAMPION OF THE WORLD"? Looking at recent history of Ferrari, it most likely is. This race whilst not a banger like the last two still proved that the new regulations brought some better racing to a historically boring grand prix as we saw Red Bull engine gremlins make a return, a shaky Sainz and a woeful weekend for the Aston Martin team all of which was covered in a sweet victory for the Man in Red.

The enigmatic, archaic and rhythmic Salor Khan blesses our mics with some BARS and fascinating stories of how ventured in to the Pakistani Rap Music scene. Which as all good things do started all thanks to some banter between friends, a few years later and Salor is now rapping alongside the likes of Maanu, Taha G and Hassan Raheem! 

He also tells us of the time when he was learning the ways of the rhythm from the maestro himself Talhah Yunus from Young Stunners whilst at his time lurking in the music department of NCA & also getting the seal of approval from Faris Shafi himself!

Salor is definitely one to watch as with each release he gets bigger and better in his style, production and flow. Give Salor a follow from the link below and tell On the Mic sent you!

This race weekend had everything and some things we really didn't need! Formula One return to Jeddah in just a few months after its inaugural grand prix last year and the fast and undulating track resulted in one banger of a race. A battle for P1 against Leclerc and Verstappen raged on, Pink Cars battling it out, a charging Hamilton and so much more! Here is our review of the Saudi Arabian Grand Prix.
