Yin Yang - Beats, Baatcheet & Benaqab Sach from the Streets!

"Scene real hota hai - ya toh koi personal moment trigger karta hai, ya society ki koi ugly side. Phir beat select karta hoon jo mood se match ho. Bars likhta hoon jaise diary mein dard utaar raha hoon. Har gaana ek confession jaisa lagta hai"

1) Hello, welcome to the OG Music Blog Interview! First of all, tell us and our reader friends about yourself!

YIN YANG

Naam Yin Yang hai, Delhi ki gulliyon se hoon. Zindagi ne dono chehre dikhaye – ek light ka aur ek dark ka – isliye naam bhi Yin Yang. Main artist bhi hoon, street ka voice bhi. Mere har lafz ke peeche asli pain, asli kahani hoti hai

2) What made you want to become a musician/artist? When did you start your musical journey? 

Jab aas-paas har taraf andhera tha, toh beat aur kalam hi roshni bane. Gaane likhna ek tareeka tha apna sach bolne ka, apna gussa nikaalne ka. Proper journey shuru hui lockdown ke dauraan, jab time mila apne aap se baat karne ka.

3) Which instruments do you play in general, which one you love most and why?

Apni awaaz sabse badi instrument hai mere liye. Kabhi mic ke bina bhi galiyon mein cypher kar liya. Par beat ke sath jab flow milta hai, toh lagta hai jaise dil dhadak raha ho. FL Studio aur pad se kaafi chhed-chhaad ki hai.

4) What is it you are passionate about music in general?

Mere liye music therapy hai, rebellion hai, aur sach ka aaina bhi. Jhooti duniya mein music mera sach hai. Mujhe lagta hai jab tak gaane bolenge, tab tak main zinda hoon.

5) Are there any musicians who inspire you?

Ha, par inspiration galiyon se zyada aayi. Par agar naam loon toh Tupac, Kendrick Lamar, Seedhe Maut, aur apne area ke underground bhai log jaise — Rcruze, Aakhri Sultaan, Mk Lucifer, Heaxen or bhot se bhai h jo kr rahe hai — in sabne vibe banayi.

6) Can you please briefly explain your creative process for any project?

Scene real hota hai – ya toh koi personal moment trigger karta hai, ya society ki koi ugly side. Phir beat select karta hoon jo mood se match ho. Bars likhta hoon jaise diary mein dard utaar raha hoon. Har gaana ek confession jaisa lagta hai.

7) What kind of music do you usually make, or the mood/vibe you aim to create in general?

Street trap, drill, conscious rap – ye sab banata hoon. Mood raw hota hai, real hota hai. Main chahata hoon sunne wale ko lage jaise usne kisi ki zindagi ki asli story sun li ho.

8) Have you ever collaborated? If yes, then say something about it like with whom or your experience in collaborating with others?*

Haan bhai, collab kiya hai Devid Ak ke sath — track tha Bandana . Jab collab hota hai, toh alag energy milti hai. Har artist apna angle laata hai. Ego hata ke sirf vibe pe kaam hota hai.

9) Which qualities do you think a great musician should possess?

Asli hona sabse badi quality hai. Jhoot bolke hit mil sakta hai, par respect nahi. Dusri cheez – patience. Ye game slow hai, par sahi vibe bana ke chaloge toh aage pakka jaoge, aisa mujhe lagta hai.

10) Any weaknesses you think you have, or if you have any awkward moments/memories as a musician/artist?

Kabhi-kabhi overthink karta hoon, har line perfect banani hoti hai. Ek baar open mic mein stage pe blackout ho gaya tha, par usi moment ne mujhe aur strong banaya. Galtiyan hi sikhaati hain.

11) Any particular venue you'll be performing at or release that you might be having in the coming months? A few words on it, please.

Haan, Toxic Into Pieces aur Bandana (Drill Version) aane wale hain. Ye dono gaane mere past, pain aur passion ko reflect karte hain. Aur ek secret collab bhi hai OG underground scene se — bas ready raho!

12) One last question. What's the best piece of advice another musician ever gave you, or that you might give to others like our musician friends reading this? Thanks.

Ek bhai ne kaha tha – “Matlab bana, hype mat bana.” Artist ban, influencer nahi. Aur sabko yahi kehna chahunga – agar beat chal rahi hai, toh ruk mat... chahe duniya khilaf ho.
