“Beneath the Sky” by MC KASH (Kashmir) 

MC Kash is said to be one of the first hip hop artists from Kashmir. MC Kash raps about the political situation in Kashmir despite the fact that his life could be a risk for speaking out.  His song, “Beneath the Sky” also parallels the people of Kashmir’s struggle to that of the longstanding Israeli-Palestinian conflict.  

*he uses some demeaning language in this video I don’t agree with, but I think the overall message is important nonetheless.
