Yama Buddha, the singer of the popular song Saathi has become a household name in the Nepali music industry. Who doesn't know this Nepali hip-hop artist? It hasn't been long since he entered into the world of music, however, within a short time he gained much popularity from his single Saathi.
The song is in the form of poetry, as most of the rap songs are. It tells the tale of two best friends who get into the habit of taking drugs. As the time passes by, one of them realizes that he should quit the drugs and struggles his way out of it while his friend dies. Yama Buddha mentions it as his favorite song as it is inspired by his own experience with drugs.
Although many of us know Yama Buddha, many are unaware of the fact that his real name is Anil Adhikari. His stage name Yama Buddha is a contrast in itself as Yama is the 'Lord of death', the dark devil while Buddha is 'The Light' or the symbol of peace. He believes that everyone has a choice whether to be good or bad in their actions. Although he was born in a far-eastern district of Salakpur, he grew up in Kathmandu since he was in grade six and he considers Kathmandu as his hometown.
