The music industry has been changing a lot for the past few decades, and we went from rock bands ruling the scene to modern hip-hop music being among the most popular out there. Hip-hop was at its height during the 90s, and now modern rappers are trying to make their way true (like Drake, Kanye, etc.). Still, it is safe to say that the hip-hop Tupac Shakur and Biggie preached was of a higher quality.

Saying this, it is nice to know that there are still people trying to recover the hip-hop that was alive during those years. And among them is the guy called Hro Palyan. Though maybe still not known to the wider audience this rapper already made a few public appearances and fired up the scene. He is an Armenian American and surely a refreshment on the existing hip-hop scene. Though still young, and new in the industry he already pumped out a few hits, and we can only expect more and even better of him.

Let’s take a more in-brief on this guy and see what he can bring us?

Hro Palyan is a young Armenian American guy that is out there waiting to become the next superstar in the hip-hop industry. While he has just begun making music some people maybe know him better for his works as a producer. He tried to explain the life of an Armenian in the USA through an 8-episode documentary series that he produced. The series was widely accepted, and very well rated by the critics. The series is from 2015, and in case you want to take a look, you can do that online as there are numerous websites streaming it for free. After his initial success, he decided to turn to the music industry and has since released two hits White China and Sick Freaks both featuring The Palyans.

Although he has been trained to play a number of musical instruments from a young age, and has already performed and sang at a wide variety of venues, he decided to join the music industry just a few months ago, as he thinks it is the right time to showcase his theatrical and extravagant ways of performing in his videos. This all-around entertainment star can surely freshen up the industry and bring us something to be eager about.


Emil Lazarian: “I should like to see any power of the world destroy this race, this small tribe of unimportant people, whose wars have all been fought and lost, whose structures have crumbled, literature is unread, music is unheard, and prayers are no more answered. Go ahead, destroy Armenia . See if you can do it. Send them into the desert without bread or water. Burn their homes and churches. Then see if they will not laugh, sing and pray again. For when two of them meet anywhere in the world, see if they will not create a New Armenia.” - WS
