About Waqqas

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My big brother challenged me to a rap battle when I told my siblings I wanted to be an artist. I was about 7 and he was probably 11 or 12. We gave each other 5 mins to write something, and once he saw mine compared to his, he decided not to battle. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Drake, Take Care (Deluxe Version) Kendrick Lamar, Black Panther: The Album Mozzy, BRASH DUMMIES Simply put, I can listen to all three of these without skipping any tracks. I don't really have a favorite anything, and when I read the question, these three were the first to come to mind. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Aaja Ve (Don't Make Me Wait)” This song of mine probably has the most Punjabi in it, all self-written, and that meant a lot to me given how quickly it got done. I also wrote this at a tough time and the hook was actually about something else, not a girl, so it hits me different. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? My parents, siblings, brother-in-law, niece and nephew watching me perform for around 5k people at a Pakistani Independence Day event. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Yeah, making it "big". I've had people message me and tell me certain songs have gotten through certain things in live and honestly, that's success to me. But, I've realized I can't work a normal job happily, so I'd love to do this full time.
