Back in 2017, I found myself in a strange new country, trying to learn a strange new language, if I were to survive there. It was also when I discovered Sidhu Moose Wala's music, stumbling upon "So High" on YouTube. His music was the sounds of home away from home, on beats from a genre I had come to love as a young adult, in melodies from a genre I had loved as a kid but had grown distant to over the years. The way he brought these disparate genres together rekindled my love for Punjabi music and his penmanship gave me new appreciation for the Punjabi language, a language that was but wasn't my mother tongue.

Rest in power, legend. Thank you.
