‘Keh De Tu Bhi Mann Ki Baat’ This Desi Rapper’s Poem Is Stirring Our Political Conscience

Bhavya Mehta

Remember MC Checkmate from Gullyboy? The same person Murad had his first rap battle with? Well, Chaitnya Sharma a.k.a MC Checkmate has uploaded a heartwarming video, supporting the anti CAA protestors and reminding us to stay united in tough times. 

Wiki BIO

In real life, Chaitnya goes by the stage name,  _SlowCheeta_. Keeping the elements of the ongoing socio-political chaos in mind, the opening lines of his spoken words give us major goosebumps:

Matt darr mere yaar, hum sab hai saath. 
Keh de tu bhi mann ki baat,
Yahaan na puchega koi jaat, na maangege kaagzaat.

Covered in his poetic words with a strong feeling of resentment dripping through his lyrics,  he sends a strong message of ahimsa.  

He then goes on to tell the world that the youngsters of this country are wide awake while the government ignorantly snoozes: 

Towards the end, Chaitnya then resorts to satire to rightfully speak his mind: 

Oh chowkidar, paisa chood, 
Izzat thodi kama le. 
Har sach ke doodh mein pani dale, 
Chai toh theek se bana le.

With his beautiful message of unity, Chaitnya Sharma’s words have shook us to the core.
