Tony Mohraz aka 021kid made a sharp turn up in 12 months with over 1 million plays on Soundcloud.

He decided to pursue rap full-time and ambushed the Persian music industry with constant single releases, making waves with tracks like “ 31tir ” which debuted as one of the most played Persian rap songs on Soundcloud with more than 500k plays in 12 months since July 2020.

Very briefly tell us who you are?
I’m Tony Mohraz born 11 august 1997 known professionally as “021kid“ is an Iranian rapper, songwriter, producer, and the DrillFarsi label owner. I am considered to be the Persian drill music genre pioneer.

How did you become the Persian drill music genre pioneer?
I have moved to London in December 2019 and after hanging around some specific postcodes in London and blending with culture my style grew progressively harder and more aggressive as my skills expanded, with melodic and lighthearted flows becoming more confident and fluid by 2020s “ Dally” single featuring south Londoner rapper ( Nixxxsta ) which people also refer to it as the first Persian drill song in history!

It was just after that track that a new trend within the new generation has started, a new genre was born and I became the Persian drill pioneer.

Have you released any music videos?
Yes ‘ West London ’ music video is also the first Persian drill music video of the history

Have you ever been on the stage before?
Yes on 5th September 2019 just before I moved to London with less than 12 months of my arrival in the UK and no prior experience in live performing, got the chance to perform my first official English single track called ” Amazing Grace ” in Manchester Arena in front of 300 people and had the crowd applauding for me.
