Produced by fellow Swadesi member BamBoy featuring Robston Soares on didgeridoo. Shambhar Bars (Translates to - 100 Bars) is a scathing critique of the increasing commercialisation of Indian hip-hop anda deep-dive into the issues facing every Maharashtrian today.
Speaking directly to the peopleof Maharashtra, MC Mawali delivers one of his best performances on the microphone, rappinglike a man possessed and exposing the hidden agendas that have compounded the issuesplaguing the state and its citizens today. Shambhar Bars adds to Swadesi’s catalogue ofconscious hip-hop and serves to underline their commitment to use their music to highlightissues that get sidelined by the country’s lapdog media.
