It was just a few days ago when Mass Appeal and Universal Music Group announced their partnership and launch of Mass Appeal India and their first signed artist was going to be Divine. Divine aka Vivian Fernandez has been teasing about his album, ‘Kohinoor’ for quite some time and it seems his fans will finally be able to get a taste of it.

The ‘Jungli Sher’ made the announcement on his social media that the track is expected to drop on the 13th of this month. The pioneer of the “gully rap” movement is having quite the monumental year. Other than being signed to Nas’s label, we all got to witness the movie, ‘Gully Boy’ in February which has won the hearts of millions of people and was loosely based around the culture which was commenced by him, it had Ranveer Singh starring in it.

Everyone is expecting, ‘Kohinoor’ to be based on his life and will be narrating his trials and tribulations in the streets of Mumbai. Although the track dropping on 13th is supposedly the first video from the album but he did drop a video for ‘Junoon’ last year in November and his fans assumed that was the intro for his album, it was released through his own label, ‘Gullygang Records’. You can check that out right here :
In his interview on Ebro on Beats 1 for apple music, he mentioned that the album is going to consist of 11 tracks. He did not give out any features or producers who have worked with him in creating this body of work but I guess we will be finding it out very soon ourselves. One thing is for sure, his fans cant wait for 13th September to come any sooner.
