Underground Rapper 199nah (Saimon Karki) has been crushing the rap scene since he was 17 years old. 199nah cites Much Rap Artist as his influence in the prior days, and his dream is to work with popular artists.199nah has gained a multitude of followers since his days of small shows at the Small road concerts. 199nah’s first music “MayDay” made him famous among rappers. Influenced by the community, culture, and sounds of his hometown, 199nah aspires to perform music that speaks to fans across the musical spectrum. His signature style has become synonymous with a diverse collection of melodies and compositions. This musician is on the rise, and nothing can stop him from achieving the success he works so hard for.

We recently got to talk to him too and here are 5 things about 199nah you didn’t know:

#1 He believes and walks on the path of truth and justice. He walks this path without fear, for fear is the opposite of the truth and causes individuals to deny the very existence that has shaped the beliefs and position they are occupying. He is not someone who lets fear overshadow or engulf his light that guides his path to truth and justice.

#2 Working with new musicians and artists is important to him as they inspire him. He believes collaborations lead to constructive guidance and helps him set more realistic goals and expectations. It is about connecting yourself with motivated and creative people who believe and invest in you.

#3 He values solitude as much as he values collaborations. He is not someone who takes solitude as a signifier of a loner or as an inconvenience. Rather, it connects him to intimacy, creativity, and freedom. It is as the quote says “We need solitude because when we’re alone, we’re free from obligations, we need not put on a show, and we can hear our own thoughts.

#4 His friends call him JoJo. That’s cute 🙂

#5 He values people and their relationships with them. He believes in relationships functioning like a mirror: the changes eventually reflect on how you’re treated. Looking down on someone who isn’t as successful or accomplished or well educated as you are is easy, but you don’t have any idea how far that person has come or where they’ll end up. Time could easily turn your position, so the position is never important. What is important is treating everyone with respect and the dignity they deserve!
