Karan Singh Arora travelled all the way from his home-town Ranchi to Pune to chase his dreams and passion. A rapper by choice, 19-year-old Karan released his first rap video on YouTube, on March 31.

Karan while speaking with iamin recalls, “I was never professionally trained in music but always had interest in the profession. In class 6, I started to play drums and soon joined our school band. Later, when rapping received recognition in India, my interest shifted towards it.”

He adds, “It was when I came to Pune, I realised that my passion lies in the music industry. Therefore, I completed one year diploma course in Sound Engineering. Simultaneously, I was studying Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) in Wadia College in Pune. In a matter of few months, I realised that I cannot ace in two things at the same time. I chose to give my best to rapping which I did, eventually.”

Popularly known as ‘ThisIsKSA’, Karan’s first rap video has already received 18,000 shares, within a week of its release. His first release ‘Shiv Shankar’ is a rap with a fusion of dance and rock music. Karan explains, “Usually, Indian or Hindi raps are based on parties and alcohol. A rap on Lord Shiv seemed to be unique. I also want my viewers to know that I am not just a random rapper who copies others.”

Karan plans to release several more videos on YouTube, within next six months. He is simultaneously doing a six-month internship in a London-based music school. Karan aims to be the next heartthrob of the music industry.
