KARACHI:
Singer Afusic is back with another single and it features Hasan Raheem.
Afusic’s lyrics contain themes of romance and his vocals have a touch of vibrato. The middle of Hasan’s verse in the second half of the song has some triplet flows, offering a brief stylistic change that is more akin to rap than r&b.
The track is produced by AliSoomroMusic who gives us an instrumental featuring a guitar loop and some and some afrobeat style drum patterns laced with trap hi hats.
The music video of this track features an atmospheric, low-lit urban landscape. The visuals lean heavily into neon-lit alleyways and tight, moody framing, echoing the classic film-noir style in a distinctly modern, South Asian context. The video has crossed 200 thousand views on Youtube in just one day.
Both artists have taken a similar path through the digital age. Hasan was an early name to be featured on Spotify’s Radar programme back in 2022, while Afusic’s breakout hit ‘Pal Pal’ earned him the same spotlight in 2025.
Afusic’s music has been included in nearly 270 thousand playlists worldwide. His viral track from earlier this year ‘Pal Pal’ is currently sitting at 73 million streams on Spotify. The official music video for this song, which features model and actor Sania Iqbal, has amassed 256 million views in just 6 months. ‘Pal Pal’ achieved and stayed on the #1 spot for nearly 11 weeks from April to June 2025 on the UK Official Asian Music Chart.
In the wider context, this collaboration shows how Pakistan’s indie acts are no longer confined to niche pockets. They are demonstrating how young artists can scale globally through playlist placements and viral moments.
The news comes two weeks after Hasan dropped the second track from the album, “EXES” featuring a collaboration with the Young Stunners on YouTube. The first track of the album was “MEMORIES” which Hasan dropped back in April.
The new song has been produced by Abdullah Kasumbi and presented by Hasan Raheem Studios and FT.WA STUDIO. The song came with a futuristic music video. Starring the vocalists themselves alongside Nargis Suleymanova, the video has been produced by Abdullah Kasumbi and Taimur Aamir.
The cinematography has been done by Abid Rizvi and shot at Studio Shamsi. It showcases a sci-fi Karachi where Hasan is going into an alternative reality to escape. He re-emerges as Yunus and Anjum in two different universes.
The video has been positively received by fans with one of the top comments on YouTube reading, “My man casually dropping the best music video in Pakistan to date.” The track is available to listen to on all streaming platforms.
