Abhay Varshney

With the lots of grass to grace stories of successful musicians in recent years, music has been at the centre of talk and attraction for most youths. However, most people who set out to start a career in music get hit on the head and quit. This is because succeeding as a musician is not just about talent but requires a series of strategic planning and execution with hard work. In spite of how straightforward it may seem, pursuing a career in the music industry is really difficult. To become famous in the music industry, each musician had to compete with numerous other musicians. But those like Abhay Varshney (Yug) , who believes in constant furnishing will surely lead to success.

It’s absolutely appreciable how he used music to find his success. This artist, who is only 24-years old and is originally from Hathras, U.P. India has the determination and ambition to create a better future for himself and his family. He holds the opinion that if you are passionate about music and put more effort into attaining your goals, people will value you as a person, and if they do, success is inevitable. He now has thousands of Instagram followers and streams across all of his music channels. Along the way, he realised that music and his love of songwriting would eventually become his career.

Abhay Varshney (Yug) shared his Journey and story, let’s take a look:

I’m hailing from a town called Hathras(U.P) which is full of businessman’s (Baniyas) where there is one life only that wake up go to shop and work, get money, i never thought to become a full time rapper or musician though i used to sing in my school but rap just came out of nowhere, i always used to write stories, music, scripts and always wanted to act but when i got in college i fell in love with Rap/Trap/Funk artists like Travis, Weekend, Post malone, Juice, X, Peep, and many more inspired me to make music in my native language.

I wanted to make music for all moods. And Since lockdown i wrote my first ever track KOI BAAT NAHI and it blew even my mind that how can i write these types of lyrics so i kept going on and wrote 14 tracks in 1 month but posted only one in 2021. Later on I went on to release 4 more songs, because of my passion for English songs I recorded 2 tracks in English in my room almira which were NOT AGAIN and CAREFREE.

After that i invested money and release two more studio recorded Singles which went on to gain some good views and reactions for me they were CHAL KAHI(RnB) which i released on 14th feb and then i released a music video called ANKAHA , thanks to a buddy who did shot it for me, then News another song with almira studio.

In 2019 i met with an unexpected issue called Benign mouth tumour which went on and i had to undergo 3 surgeries 2 major and few minor in my mouth, it went on for 3 years to recover so i got lost and flashbacks came again n again too many traumas, after i started to go serious in music writing i wanted more creativity wanted a videographer people who can help me achieve my glory but the place where i belong to, here people didn’t want the side, so i kept posting audios, somehow i got a chance when i met a guy who shot a video for me and edited but as they say You have to walk alone and start from rock bottom and it happened, which made me realise people are never happy for your success and always want much more than they deserve in return, and that went on for me to delay my song for several months.

I kept looking for people but some used to ask for loads of money which I couldn’t afford. So I woke up one day and chose to start posting audios again and released my Latest Track KHOJ after giving it a lot of thought without thinking what a video can achieve that audio cannot for a new artist.

I posted very few tracks and shorts in between 2021 to 2023 just because of this make video stuff but i won’t stop this year probably and will keep posting, if god arranges the right pieces then i will make a move without a doubt. As an artist i feel music should always come like a fresh breath like none other and it should buzz our ears, i just want to change the sound bring something new, for every mood like Anger, Joy, Fun, Love, Travel and many more i will keep writing tracks in my own zone when i feel whatever mood i’m feeling.

He further added, Without a label, I believe it is not having much success even though it is moving slowly and not sprinting. Yes, I am aware that many platforms and reels these days give a good boost, but it only happens to a select handful. I anticipate a significant response, but it turns out to be nothing, so things aren't turning out the way I wanted them to.
